I have been meaning to get to this little project for a while, and here we are. You can find a link to the site below, I like this initial in your face message though, this tells me that this tool is going to tell me something about my Kubernetes cluster that I didn’t know, for the record I am going to download and run this on my home lab cluster and see what we get. This is not a production cluster! So what is it… KubeBuddy powered by KubeDeck helps you monitor, analyze, and report on your Kubernetes environments with ease. Whether you’re tracking cluster health,Read More →

As with most Mondays, we start with a job and task in mind but quickly as we begin catching up on news from the weekend, we find some interesting rabbit holes to investigate. This Monday morning was no different but I also do not usually have the urge to share such information. As you all know AI is everywhere, I mean if you do not have a chatbot can you even spell AI!?

This has been on my product bucket list for a while, in fact this initial feature request went in on the 9th September 2021. My reasons then were not sales orientated, I was seeing the Kubernetes community using the trusty Raspberry PIs as part of a Kubernetes cluster at home. By supporting in my eyes this architecture it would have opened the door to the home users, technologists and community to having a trusted way to protect the learning environment at home. Here we are 3 years on and we got the support. I have a single node k3s cluster running on a single RaspberryRead More →

*As the title suggests in this post we are going to be talking about the upstream project KubeVirt, KubeVirt as a standalone project release and the protection of these VMs is not supported. It is only today supported for Red Hat OpenShift Virtualisation (OCP-V) and Harvester from SUSE. This is based on all the varying hardware KubeVirt can be deployed on. With that caveat out of the way in a home lab, we are able to tinker around with whatever we want. I am also clarifying that I am using the 5 nodes that we have available for the community to protect these virtual machines.Read More →
