CVS Health strengthens commitment to secure healthcare and modernization efforts further reducing engineering complexity SAN FRANCISCO, California – May 18, 2026 – The Cloud Native Computing Foundation® (CNCF®), which builds sustainable ecosystems for cloud native software,…
CNCF Debuts KubeCon + CloudNativeCon Japan 2026 Schedule
Second annual Japanese event to spotlight AI, observability, platform engineering and more Key Highlights: YOKOHAMA, Japan, May 13, 2026 – The Cloud Native Computing Foundation® (CNCF®), which builds sustainable ecosystems for cloud native software, today announced…
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…
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,…
Auto-diagnosing Kubernetes alerts with HolmesGPT and CNCF tools
What a two-person SRE team learned building an AI investigation pipeline. Spoiler: the runbooks mattered more than the model. Why we built this At STCLab, our SRE team supports multiple Amazon EKS clusters running high-traffic production…
How To Measure the ROI of Developer Tools
There’s been a growing emphasis in the cloud native community on investing in tools that improve developer experience. Platform engineering, accompanied with the rise of projects like Backstage, is all about making developers more productive by…
The Challenge: Fragmented tooling and compliance risk at scale The client’s platform engineering team managed a sprawling cloud-native estate with over 1,000 GitLab projects, hundreds of Kubernetes workloads, Kafka streams, Databricks and Spark jobs, and Aurora…
Challenges The organization faced vendor lock‑in and rising costs from multi‑tool sprawl and uncontrolled telemetry ingestion/retention. Hybrid visibility was limited: legacy platforms and Kubernetes estates were observed separately, dashboards proliferated, and alerting was largely reactive, generating…
