Top 23 K8 Open-Source Projects

  • minio

    The Object Store for AI Data Infrastructure

    • Project mention: A Distributed File System in Go Cut Average Metadata Memory Usage to 100 Bytes | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-22

    Looks like minio added this in 2022:

    https://github.com/minio/minio/pull/15433

  • k3s

    Lightweight Kubernetes

    • Project mention: Linux fu: getting started with systemd | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-14

    For self-hosting I've found https://k3s.io to be really good from the SUSE people. Works on basically any Linux distro and makes self-hosting k8s not miserable.

  • 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.

  • k9s

    🐶 Kubernetes CLI To Manage Your Clusters In Style!

    • Project mention: Upgrading Hundreds of Kubernetes Clusters | dev.to | 2024-04-03

    Pierre: The first tool I recommend is K9s. It's not just a time-saver but a productivity booster. With its intuitive interface, you can speed up all the usual kubectl commands, access logs, edit resources and configurations, and more. It's like having a personal assistant for your cluster management tasks.

  • VictoriaMetrics

    VictoriaMetrics: fast, cost-effective monitoring solution and time series database

    • Project mention: OpenTelemetry Is Too Complicated | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-03

    VictoriaMetrics CTO here.

    The referred library is the official OpenTelemetry package for reading metrics in Go language [1] - more details are available at [2].

    Note that we at VictoriaMetrics like the idea of unified observability standard like OpenTelemetry. The issue is in the current otel implementation. It is too bloated and very inefficient. This contradicts to our experience with observability cases, which need very optimized format for metrics' transfer in order to reduce costs on CPU and network traffic needed to transfer and process these metrics.

    VictoriaMetrics continues investing in OpenTelemetry by providing integration docs [3] and improving the existing functionality for otel metrics' ingestion [4].

  • microk8s

    MicroK8s is a small, fast, single-package Kubernetes for datacenters and the edge.

    • Project mention: You get what you Measure: Understanding your applications health with Grafana, Loki and Prometheus | dev.to | 2024-04-24

    If you want hands-on practice you should have a running Kubernetes cluster (I used MicroK8s for this tutorial) and Helm (see how to install on Installing Helm tutorial). It is important that you understand the basics of these tools to fully understand.

  • 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: How are people managing env vars for Static Applications? | /r/devops | 2023-12-09

    You can combine this approach with something like https://github.com/stakater/Reloader to automatically restart pods when a certain secret value changes. So if your static code needs to be rebuilt when certain values change, you can use an init container to run the build on startup.

  • kubernetes-learning-path

    A roadmap to learn Kubernetes from scratch (Beginner to Advanced level)

  • python

    Official Python client library for kubernetes (by kubernetes-client)

    • Project mention: Show HN: Kr8s a batteries-included Python client library for Kubernetes | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-13

  • 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: Amazon EC2 Enhances Defense in Depth with Default IMDSv2 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-27

    Kubernetes? You mean the container orchestration system where they forgot to add Multi-tenancy? And no namespaces are not Multi-tenancy...
