Kubernetes 1.31 drops next week with some awesome updates for a smoother, more secure cloud experience. 🚏 First, kube-proxy now supports an nftables backend in beta, replacing iptables for better network performance. 💿 For storage, there’s a new GA feature tracking when a PersistentVolume changes states—helpful for monitoring and reliability. 🛡️ Security gets a boost too! SeccompDefault is now GA, enforcing stronger isolation by default. Plus, Pod Security Admission updates make policy enforcement easier across clusters. 🧩 Finally, for developers: API enhancements, including better validation and defaulting for CRDs, improve extensibility. 🐳 Kubernetes 1.31 is a game-changer for performance, reliability, and security. Ready to upgrade? Stay tuned for more! For details, check out the Kubernetes changelog and official discussions. Happy Kubernetes-ing! Don’t forget to subscribe to support more great content. GO REBELS! ✊🏽

eBPF is a powerful tool for improving performance in Kubernetes and microservices, providing real-time analysis and management, but its complexity may be a barrier for some developers. Donald Lutz shares his experience using it, and some of the pitfalls to watch out for on this SMC Journal #podcast. https://lnkd.in/eu75mnmF  Key Video Insights on eBPF Performance 🚀 The use of eBPF can help avoid the complexity and issues with sidecars in #Kubernetes, making it ideal for running on container machines. 📊 The best use case for using eBPF is to measure the performance of interconnected microservices in a complicated system, tying it into tools like Jaeger for comprehensive performance analysis. 📊 The struggle with measuring and understanding the performance of #microservices across multiple clusters highlights the need for better performance #monitoring tools. 🌐 eBPF is not just about performance, but also about broader applications such as observability and there are conferences dedicated to it. 🛡 Making decisions at a low level without adding security overhead is a huge advantage in network #performance and security. 🔄 Turning the ship around to prioritize performance requires making #DevOps native and changing the way development has ignored the issue. 🚀 Performance is vital in technology, dropping phone calls is not super cool. 🕰️ The future of #eBPF adoption depends on how quickly it can be made accessible to a broader range of users. #softwareengineering #performanceengineering

If you're running Kubernetes clusters, the Metrics Server is a critical tool for tracking CPU and memory usage. Unlike Prometheus, which is used for long-term monitoring, Metrics Server focuses on real-time data that can help with auto-scaling and improving performance. In our latest guide, we dive into the Kubernetes Metrics Server—what it is, why it’s essential, and how to set it up. Check it out to enhance your Kubernetes monitoring strategy! 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gw9-cYW6 #Kubernetes #DevOps #Kubecost

Ever wondered how fast Kubernetes HPA can scale your app? 🧐 🔗 https://lnkd.in/ednK_7WX Nikolay Sivko, CEO and Founder of Coroot, dives deep 👇 "For this experiment, I provisioned a Kubernetes cluster on Amazon EKS... I’ll use the image-resizer Deployment as my test application. It has a CPU limit of 500m (1/2 of a CPU core)."
