Azure logs come in three flavors: **Activity Logs**, **Diagnostic Logs**, and **Log Analytics**. Each with its own rules for retention and billing. The catch? Those differences aren’t quirks—they’re baked in...

When an event drops silently in a distributed system, it is not a bug, it is an architectural blind spot. Detect, debug, and prevent message loss in Kafka-based streaming pipelines using tools like OpenTelemetry, Fluent Bit, Jaeger, and dead-letter queues. Make sure observability gaps in event strea..

DigitalOcean just dropped **Organizations**—a real upgrade for anyone juggling multiple Teams. Think one top-level account to rule them all: centralized user control, one invoice to track, and org-wide settings for taxes, credits, and permissions...

OneUptime shows how to put **error budgets** to work—keeping feature velocity in check without tanking reliability. The goal: ship fast, stay within SLOs. They do it by tracking **burn rates**, syncing across teams, and tuning SLOs to match how users actually use the product. Less guesswork, more s..

Kubernetes v1.34 bumps **Pod Level Resources** to Beta—and flips them on by default. Now you can set CPU, memory, and hugepages limits for the whole Pod, not just per container. That means smoother scheduling, stricter resource caps, and less sidecar thrashing. **Why it matters:** This shifts Kuber..

Databricks replaced default Kubernetes load balancing for a **proxyless, client-side gRPC setup**, wired up through a custom control plane. No more **CoreDNS**. No more **kube-proxy**. Clients now get live endpoint discovery through **xDS**, plus smarter routing tricks like **Power of Two Choices** ..

The inaugural Edge Day launched as a co-located event at KubeCon + CloudNativeCon EU in 2022, focusing on edge computing and the evolution from centralized data centers to the network edge. The event brings together academic research, enterprise use cases, and insights from the Kubernetes community...

Obot.ai just dropped out of stealth with $35M in seed and a big swing: it’s building a control plane for agentic AI, anchored on the now-standard **Model Context Protocol (MCP)**. Its **MCP Gateway** handles registry, secure proxying, RBAC, and observability for MCP servers. Think API gateway, but ..

Misconfigured YAML. Broken image refs. Botched resource settings. Most Kubernetes deploys don't fail mysteriously—they fail predictably. This guide breaks down the top 10 culprits: things like `CrashLoopBackOff`, bad image pulls, and `OOMKills`. More importantly, it shows how to dodge them with bet..

Fluent Bit just edged out Fluentd as the CNCF’s go-to log processor. Why? It's fast—up to 40× faster. Built in C. Embedded plugins. Native OpenTelemetry. Full observability baked in. It handles routing, schema changes, and telemetry across containers and edge systems without flinching. No Ruby here..
