AWX in Action is out, and there's a course

#red hat... #ansible #Tower #AWX

"AWX in Action: Ansible Orchestration at Scale" is now available in print and ebook. It covers running AWX on Kubernetes for real, not a sandbox demo that falls over the moment you add a second execution node.

Design Patterns Are Dead. Long Live Design Patterns.

Design patterns were created for human comprehension, not machines, serving as a shared vocabulary to communicate complex ideas quickly, manage working memory, and standardize solutions. Even in the era of AI-generated code, design patterns are crucial for containing the limitations of AI models and.. read more

AI costs how much? GitHub Copilot users react to new usage-based pricing system.

GitHub began usage-based Copilot billing, and some developers say they used up the AI credits GitHub grants for a month in under 24 hours. Developers burn credits through "premium requests". GitHub counts prompts to advanced models, agent tasks, edits, and some Copilot features against the allowance.. read more

GitHub breach: The development ecosystem is in the hot seat

GitHub is reeling from an infrastructure breach by TeamPCP, highlighting the vulnerability of developer environments. Privileged access was achieved not through traditional perimeter exploitation, but by targeting trusted developer tools like IDE extensions. This incident serves as a stark reminder .. read more

Kata Containers is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project designed to close the security gap between traditional Linux containers and virtual machines. Instead of sharing a single host kernel like standard containers, Kata Containers launches each pod or container inside its own lightweight virtual machine using hardware virtualization.

This approach dramatically reduces the attack surface and prevents container escape vulnerabilities, making Kata ideal for multi-tenant, untrusted, or sensitive workloads. Despite using VMs under the hood, Kata is optimized for fast startup times and integrates seamlessly with Kubernetes through the Container Runtime Interface (CRI), allowing it to be used alongside runtimes like containerd and CRI-O.

Kata Containers is commonly used in scenarios such as multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters, confidential computing, sandboxed AI workloads, serverless platforms, and agent execution environments where strong isolation is mandatory. It supports multiple hypervisors, including QEMU, Firecracker, and Cloud Hypervisor, and continues to evolve toward faster boot times, lower memory overhead, and better hardware acceleration support.
