Why MicroVMs: The Architecture Behind Sandboxes

Docker Sandboxes puts each agent session in a dedicatedmicroVM. Each microVM runs a privateDocker daemoninside the VM boundary. That blocks access to the host. A new cross‑platformVMMruns on macOS, Windows, and Linux hypervisors. It slashes cold starts and runs fullDockerbuild, run, and compose work.. read more

The AI-driven shift in vulnerability discovery: What maintainers and bug finders need to know

AI modelslet non-experts craft real and fake vulnerabilities at scale. They spit out low-quality noise and the occasional high-value report. Reports floodOSS maintainers. Triage, patching, release cadences, and downstreamupgrade/compliancepipelines buckle under the load. Guidance recommends publishi.. read more

Introducing Ternary Bonsai: Top Intelligence at 1.58 Bits

PrismML unveilsTernary Bonsai: a family of1.58-bitLMs in1.7B,4B, and8Bsizes. Models use ternary weights {-1,0,+1} with group-wise quantization. Weights are ternary (-1,0,+1). Each group of128weights shares anFP16scale. That cuts memory by ~9x versus 16-bit and boosts benchmark scores. The8Bhits 75.5.. read more

Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration at Meta: Framework, Lessons, and Takeaways

Quantum computers could decrypt data stored today in anticipation of future decryption, posing security risks despite the estimated decade-long timeline. Industry-wide PQC standards are being published by NIST to defend against such threats, including algorithms like ML-KEM and ML-DSA. The industry .. read more  

Post-Quantum Cryptography Migration at Meta: Framework, Lessons, and Takeaways
Pelagia is a Kubernetes controller that provides all-in-one management for Ceph clusters installed by Rook. It delivers two main features:

Aggregates all Rook Custom Resources (CRs) into a single CephDeployment resource, simplifying the management of Ceph clusters.
Provides automated lifecycle management (LCM) of Rook Ceph OSD nodes for bare-metal clusters. Automated LCM is managed by the special CephOsdRemoveTask resource.

It is designed to simplify the management of Ceph clusters in Kubernetes installed by Rook.

Being solid Rook users, we had dozens of Rook CRs to manage. Thus, one day we decided to create a single resource that would aggregate all Rook CRs and deliver a smoother LCM experience. This is how Pelagia was born.

It supports almost all Rook CRs API, including CephCluster, CephBlockPool, CephFilesystem, CephObjectStore, and others, aggregating them into a single specification. We continuously work on improving Pelagia's API, adding new features, and enhancing existing ones.

Pelagia collects Ceph cluster state and all Rook CRs statuses into single CephDeploymentHealth CR. This resource highlights of Ceph cluster and Rook APIs issues, if any.

Another important thing we implemented in Pelagia is the automated lifecycle management of Rook Ceph OSD nodes for bare-metal clusters. This feature is delivered by the CephOsdRemoveTask resource, which automates the process of removing OSD disks and nodes from the cluster. We are using this feature in our everyday day-2 operations routine.
