Project mention: Flunked out of FAANG (zing!) and realized that my 6 years of experience have been spent with my head firmly lodged within my ass. Below is my plan to unfuck myself. Feedback appreciated. | reddit.com/r/ExperiencedDevs | 2022-01-21
Learning Kubernetes (K8s) for me was about getting pissed off enough at Bezos for all the money he was making off of me lol. I wanted to have my own little infrastructure that I control but without having to babysit it. I tried Docker Swarm, which was nice but wasn’t translating into professional-grade cluster experience. I found a project called Open FAAS that let me deploy my own Lambda/serverless. It ran on K8s. So, I followed a few tutorials on K3s (a lightweight version of K8s for the pi) and deployed it with K3sup. The OpenFAAS project, K8s, and Docker are written in Golang, so I learned some of that with A Tour Of Go. After branching out into the K8s world for a bit, I decided to get my Certified Kubernetes Application Developer (CKAD). I took this Udemy course and passed the test on the first go. You’ll learn just about everything you’ll need to know about K8s from that experience.

Project mention: Transient Failure Using Cloud Sql (Mysql) Proxy W/ GKE Cluster | reddit.com/r/googlecloud | 2022-01-17
2) I don't see startup logs for the CloudSQL Proxy. Are you sure it's actually starting? Consider using k9s to live debug your cluster, or use the GCP console to see if the container actually started.

Project mention: Launch HN: ContainIQ (YC S21) – Kubernetes Native Monitoring with eBPF | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-01-06
Polar signals develops Parca [0] which is another eBPF observability tool, and Isovalent develops Cilium [1] which is built on eBPF as well. Genuinely curious if there are differences, or if eBPF only allows for specific observability functionality and each tool has it all.

kubesphere
The container platform tailored for Kubernetes multi-cloud, datacenter, and edge management ⎈ 🖥 ☁️
Minikube - minikube implements a local Kubernetes cluster KubeSphere - Easy-to-use Production Ready Container Platform https://kubesphere.io skippbox - A Desktop application for k8s kind - Kubernetes IN Docker - local clusters for testing Kubernetes https://kind.sigs.k8s.io/ k3d - k3d is a lightweight wrapper to run k3s (Rancher Lab’s minimal Kubernetes distribution) in docker.
-
Traditional way to try an open-source project Tyk is an open source API gateway project. Organizations can control access to the gateway and protect the security of enterprises and organizations. To start with, I chose the traditional way, using docker-compose to install it, which requires the Git and Docker environment on the computer.

Project mention: Scrape Data from Local IP Website and save it into Influxdb | reddit.com/r/selfhosted | 2022-01-07
If heating device exports monitoring data in Prometheus text exposition format, then it is better scraping the data with Prometheus or with any Prometheus-compatible system such as vmagent or VictoriaMetrics.

Scout APM
Less time debugging, more time building. Scout APM allows you to find and fix performance issues with no hassle. Now with error monitoring and external services monitoring, Scout is a developer's best friend when it comes to application development.

Project mention: First try at building Kubernetes - some questions... | reddit.com/r/kubernetes | 2022-01-22
Also, k3sup (https://github.com/alexellis/k3sup) makes it even easier!

Project mention: NGINX Ingress Controller v1.0.0 is released; it supports Kubernetes >= v1.19 including v1.22 | reddit.com/r/kubernetes | 2021-08-26
Well, let's give it a try: https://github.com/nginxinc/kubernetes-ingress/issues/1910

Reloader
A Kubernetes controller to watch changes in ConfigMap and Secrets and do rolling upgrades on Pods with their associated Deployment, StatefulSet, DaemonSet and DeploymentConfig – [✩Star] if you're using it!
Project mention: Wondering how to renew a certificate in k8s using cert manager. | reddit.com/r/kubernetes | 2021-12-28Using nginx ingress controller this is done automatically, using a standalone ip/service you might need to employ some form of reloader (eg https://github.com/stakater/Reloader) to restart the pods when a secret is updated.

Project mention: Using Telepresence 2 for Kubernetes debugging and local development | dev.to | 2021-04-15
Kubefwd works similar to Telepresence by making your local environment think it is inside the cluster. The networking tunnel is one direction only. Telepresence is much smarter as it also makes the other cluster applications think that your local app is inside the same cluster. So with Kubefwd you only get 50% of what basic Telepresence offers. Telepresence also has volume mounting support for more advanced scenarios.

For the CNCF landscape of tooling there's Arkade, which would at least cover you on the k9s front. [1]
-
gardener
Kubernetes-native system managing the full lifecycle of conformant Kubernetes clusters as a service on Alicloud, AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack, EquinixMetal, vSphere, MetalStack, and Kubevirt with minimal TCO.
How does this compare against simply using Gardener [0]?
-
CDK
CDK is an open-sourced container penetration toolkit, offering stable exploitation in different slimmed containers without any OS dependency. It comes with penetration tools and many powerful PoCs/EXPs helps you to escape container and takeover K8s cluster easily.

The first step in deploying an application to OpenFaas is to deploy the OpenFaaS platform to Kubernetes. I use Helm and Terraform to create the OpenFaaS deployment. OpenFaaS provides a helm chart

kata-containers
Kata Containers version 2.x repository. Kata Containers is an open source project and community working to build a standard implementation of lightweight Virtual Machines (VMs) that feel and perform like containers, but provide the workload isolation and security advantages of VMs. https://katacontainers.io/

Project mention: aws/eks-anywhere: Run Amazon EKS on your own infrastructure 🚀 | reddit.com/r/devopsish | 2021-10-31
-
vcluster
vcluster - Create fully functional virtual Kubernetes clusters - Each vcluster runs inside a namespace of the underlying k8s cluster. It's cheaper than creating separate full-blown clusters and it offers better multi-tenancy and isolation than regular namespaces.
Project mention: What type of software do you write at your workplace? | reddit.com/r/golang | 2022-01-17Kubernetes controller (it's like an extension for Kubernetes) - https://www.vcluster.com/ . Most of the Kubernetes ecosystem is written in Go, so you have all the API definitions, libraries, etc. that you can just import, and as a result people rarely go with other programming languages. Most used libs would be kubernetes/client-go, kubernetes-sigs/controller-runtime, spf13/cobra
