Too many cook in the kitchen? I find everyone just wanna create their own Kubernetes plugin solution.

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/kubernetes

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • pixie

    Instant Kubernetes-Native Application Observability

  • Cilium multi-cluster mesh is a bit different, compared to service meshes, and it's L4, so should be fine with eBPF / XDP based routing. From observability standpoint I'd go for pixie - it should work just fine with both linkerd and istio, instead of Hubble, and Cilium's Tetragon was missing policies about 3-4 months ago (needs doublec-hecking if they had introduced any).

  • nhd

    A Topology-Aware Custom Scheduler For Kubernetes

  • I don't really think that it's a matter that is something CNCF can do about. We have kernel drivers, kernel virtual machines and in-kernel execution, alongside XDP offloading. And we have poll-mode user space drivers in terms of DPDK/SPDK with the respective, both network and storage, implementations. It's just SPDK is somewhat immature atm and is missing any meaningful, stable, FS implementation. DPDK/SPDK has a different take on traffic offloading, i.e. projects like Nvidia Aerial and Viasat/nhd exist. With Nvidia Doca DPU SDK in development things will become even more complex.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
