Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Bare-Metal Kubernetes, Part I: Talos on Hetzner
Speaking of k8s, anyone here know of ready-made solutions for getting XCode (i.e. xcodebuild) running in pods? As far as I'm aware, there are no good solutions for getting XCode running on Linux, so at the moment I'm just futzing about with a virtual-kubelet[0] implementation that spawns MacOS VMs. This works just fine, but the problem seems like such an obvious one that I expect there to be some existing solution(s) I just missed.

Keeping Airflow tasks “cloud-native”
Have you looked into virtual kubelet yet? It allows you to make a virtual node in your on-prem cluster that schedules workloads on services like AWS Fargate or Azure Container Instances.

Similar to AWS Fargate provider?
If you are serious about implementing this yourself, you may want to look into virtual kubelet: https://virtual-kubelet.io/

Deploy on prem Kubernetes. What is the best approach paid and unpaid to deploy a cluster on premise with burst to azure/aws? The only need is the ability to have some static pods. I do have a preference for free/open source solutions.
I just stumbled upon this project a while back and don't have experience with it, so I don't know how well it works and what caveats you may face, but there's Virtual Kubelet, which aims to do just that, i.e. running a virtual Kubernetes node outside the cluster. Its Kip provider sounds like the thing you're looking for.

How to use the GitOps model to create, update and manage applications at the edge with KubeEdge and Argo
Kubeedge docs are light on self-justification... How does https://github.com/kubeedge/kubeedge differ from https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet or just running a regular kubelet on that edge machine?

Autoscaling Redis applications on Kubernetes 🚀🚀
If this sounds interesting, do check out Virtual Nodes in Azure Kubernetes Service to see how you can use them to seamlessly scale your applications to Azure Container Instances and benefit from quick provisioning of pods, and only pay per second for their execution time. The virtual nodes add-on for AKS, is based on the open source project Virtual Kubelet which is an open source Kubernetes kubelet implementation.

Use cases like these are made possible by projects like KubeEdge , K3s and Virtual Kubelets. You can read more about how they power the edge with different architectures and compromises here.

Evolving Container Security with Linux User Namespaces
This is a complicated question to answer.
This isn't my expertise (the cluster orchestration system), but I can answer to the best of my abilities: Titus, today is a system that sits on top of Kubernetes, and uses Kubernetes components to do its thing, but we've substituted many of the systems with our own. For example, closer to my area of knowledge, we've used our own executor / provider along with the Virtual Kubelet project (https://github.com/virtual-kubelet/virtual-kubelet) instead of Kubelet.
We're exploring where we can leverage the Kubernetes ecosystem, adapt components, or help contribute changes back that others can leverage to enable our use of more COTS components of Kubernetes.
tl;dr: We're swapping out the engines while in flight

Long, detailed post mortem on a reddit failed k8s upgrade
When the Gatekeeper validatingwebhook came up, I was really worried that'd be the issue! Regardless I'd recommend anyone who cares about their cluster not collapsing to change the gatekeeper webhook to only intercept resources you care about: https://github.com/open-policy-agent/gatekeeper/pull/1806
- Is OPA Gatekeeper the best solution for writing policies for k8s clusters?

Implement DevSecOps to Secure your CI/CD pipeline
Kyverno adds an extra layer of security where only the allowed type of manifest is deployed onto kubernetes, otherwise, it will reject or we can set validationFailureAction to audit which only logs the policy violation message for reporting. Kubewarden and Gatekeeper are alternative tools available to enforce policies on Kubernetes CRD.

Gatekeeper with Istio
Now, we have the hardest part resolved and let's turn our attention to the OPA Gatekeeper. Gatekeeper uses the OPA Constraint Framework to describe and enforce policy. Right now there are mainly 3 parts we should pay attention:
-
10 Essentials For Kubernetes Multi-Tenancy
They enable you to establish the policies and regulations that govern cluster deployments and applications. Using predefined policies, policy engines can dynamically modify or create configurations. Policy engines such as Gatekeeper and Kyverno can be leveraged to meet legal and compliance requirements while maintaining operational flexibility and development speed.

Setup policy around what resource requirements can be requested by an app per environment. OPA and gatekeeper or kyverno can help. Setup access control for who can create or modify apps.

Kubernetes policy management: I - Introduction
OPA Gatekeeper is an open source, general purpose policy engine. OPA decouples policy decisions from other responsibilities of an application, like those commonly referred to as business logic. OPA works equally well making decisions for Kubernetes, Microservices, functional application authorization and more, thanks to its single unified policy language.
