We are thrilled to announce that the MELLODDY project  has met its year two objective of improving the performance of its federated predictive model to accelerate drug discovery.

If you are seeking to adopt a hybrid-cloud strategy, you might want to evaluate alternatives to OpenStack. Azure Stack is a commercial solution you can use to extend the Azure public cloud to the local data center. It is a common alternative to OpenStack when deploying hybrid clouds.

Let’s talk about virtual machines. Can we all agree that Kubernetes and cloud native technologies rock and the cool kids do not want to run VMs anymore?

Whenever you change something in your cluster, you might want to log that change somewhere so that you can look it up later. Did you know that Kubernetes not only lets you log all changes but also fire events that respond to particular changes? Find out in this article how to do this!

Kubernetes security is a broad topic - in this article we’ll focus on one critical aspect: incident response.

In previous parts of this series, we walked you through StorageClass as one of the Kubernetes objects for data persistence. Let’s now look at another persistent data object referred to as a StatefulSet. We’ll cover the topics below and some hands-on practice to show you the functionalities of this object.

The previous installment in this series outlined two volume provisioning methods, static and dynamic. The exercise on creating a PersistentVolume was based on static volume provisioning, while this segment will focus on the dynamic method using StorageClass. You’ll learn how to make a volume request of any size, without worrying about whether or not it’s available in the storage pool.

In this post, we’ll look at how we implemented a Monitoring, Logging, and Alerting stack (MLA)  for a highly distributed platform, in a scalable and efficient manner.

Previously in this series, we looked at volumes and volumeMounts in Kubernetes. Now we’ll take a step further and introduce two other Kubernetes objects related to data persistence and preservation, namely  PersistentVolumes (PVs) and PersistentVolumeClaims (PVCs).

There are so many environments that operational tasks and applications have to be managed in today, it can be a real challenge. Implementing cloud native Operators are a great way to improve efficiencies by providing the tools to automate these processes. In this blog post, you’ll learn more about what Kubernetes Operators are and the benefits of adding them.

In the last part of this series, you learnt about ReplicaSet and its functionalities to make the management of Kubernetes applications easier. We will take a step further in this part by introducing you to Kubernetes Deployment.

In this part of our series, we are focusing on Kubernetes ReplicaSets. Just like the previous parts, there will be hand-on practice to allow you to get acquainted with the features and functionalities of ReplicaSets which include using ReplicaSet to scale applications up or down.
