Building a cloud native platform from the ground up with Kairos, k0rdent, and bindy
As we shared in our earlier post on FluxCD, RBC Capital Markets has been on a deliberate journey to modernize our Kubernetes platform. GitOps with FluxCD gave us a solid deployment foundation. But as our platform grew,…
Challenges The aim was to reduce dependency on vendor-specific implementations, improve scalability, and ensure data sovereignty and regulatory compliance, while competing with public cloud providers. Technical challenges included building a platform capable of handling 600+ clusters…
A decade of governance: Cloud Custodian at 10 and its role in the agentic AI era
What is Cloud Custodian? It is an open source, stateless policy engine used to manage public cloud environments, Kubernetes and infrastructure as code through a unified DSL. As an incubating project within CNCF, it allows organizations…
The New Stack: “Why Prometheus couldn’t see Cilium metrics at 2 a.m.”
Tame the Kubernetes “integration tax.” Learn how to wire CNCF projects like Prometheus and Cilium for production-grade reliability.
The New Stack: “How NetEase Games cut LLM cold starts from 42 minutes to 30 seconds”
NetEase Games cut LLM cold-start times from 42 mins to 30 sec with the CNCF Fluid project, enabling serverless GPU inference on Kubernetes.
Microcks becomes a CNCF incubating project
The CNCF Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) has voted to accept Microcks as a CNCF incubating project. About Microcks Modern software teams build applications as collections of interconnected APIs and microservices, and with that architecture comes a…
The tools are ready. So why are most cloud native teams still running three observability stacks?
I’ve spent enough time in and around cloud native infrastructure to know that we’re reasonably good at standardizing the theory. OpenTelemetry for instrumentation, Prometheus for metrics, Jaeger and Tempo for distributed tracing, Fluentd or Loki for…
Solution Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) SNOW migrated to a multi-region on-premise Kubernetes platform with decoupled External ETCD topology for high availability. The CNCF ecosystem underpins the entire stack: Cilium for CNI, Helm for GitOps-based deployment,…
