When Kubernetes and Go don't work well together, with Emin Laletović
https://kube.fm/kubernetes-go-emin
Discover how a seemingly simple 502 error in Kubernetes can uncover complex interactions between Go and containerized environments.
Emin Laletović, a solution architect at Hybird Technologies, shares his experience debugging a production issue in which a specific API endpoint failed due to out-of-memory errors.
He walks through the systematic investigation process, from initial log checks to uncovering the root cause in Go's memory management within Kubernetes.
You will learn:
How Go's garbage collector interacts with Kubernetes resource limits, potentially leading to unexpected OOMKilled errors.
The importance of the GOMEMLIMIT environment variable in Go 1.19+ for managing memory usage in containerized environments.
Debugging techniques for memory-related issues in Kubernetes, including GODEBUG for garbage collector tracing.
Considerations for optimizing Go applications in Kubernetes, balancing performance and resource utilization.

Day 2 Operations Solved for Internal Developer Platforms with Kubernetes and Crossplane
In this video we tackle a major challenge in Internal Developer Platforms built on top of Kubernetes: enabling developers to not only manage their applications and infrastructure but also to observe and troubleshoot them effectively. We demonstrate how to propagate meaningful status information to top-level resources using Crossplane and the Status Transformer Function. Watch as we solve real-world issues, making day 2 operations easier for developers without overwhelming them with low-level details. Learn how to create custom resource definitions (CRDs) and controllers that simplify the developer experience.

Week Ending October 13, 2024
https://lwkd.info/2024/20241017
Developer News
VM images built with Kubernetes Image Builder older than v0.1.37 have a security hole that may allow remote login. This includes Proxmox, Nutanix, OVA, QEMU, and raw providers. Upgrade to v0.1.38 or later, and rebuild your VM images.
SIG-Release is planning to phase out artifacts for some architectures by 1.33. In 1.32, the updated cross-build images for ppc64le and s390x will not be released, because of broken dependencies.
Release Schedule
Next Deadline: Docs placeholder PRs deadline, October 24
The enhancements freeze was last week and we have a total of 60 KEPs tracked for v1.32. 9 enhancements did not make the cut for the enhancements freeze and 9 were deferred. Coming up next is the deadline for getting your docs placeholder PRs open, on 24th of October. If your KEP is tracked for v1.32 and if you have updates to the docs, don’t forget to open your PRs in time!
The patch releases planned for October have been moved to Tuesday, October 22, 2024.
Featured PRs
127878 [scheduler] calculate pod requests resources with sidecar containers
This PR updates the scheduler scoring process to consider the resource requests of existing sidecar containers when scheduling Pods. As per the sidecar containers KEP, resources calculations for scheduling pods with sidecars is supposed to be: Max(Max( each InitContainerUse ), Sum(Sidecar Containers) + Sum(Containers)), but existing scheduler logic was using Max(RegularContainers, InitContainers) to calculate resources instead. This PR updates this logic.
KEP of the Week
KEP 3104: Introduce kuberc
This KEP proposes to introduce a new kuberc file that can be used to separate cluster credentials and server configuration from user preferences. This new and entirely opt-in kuberc file would allow users to configure aliases and default flags and also aims to deprecate the kubeconfig Preferences field. While in alpha, this feature can be enabled by setting the KUBECTL_KUBERC environment variable to true. The file will default to being located in ~/.kube/kuberc. A flag will allow overriding this default location with a path i.e. kubectl –kuberc /var/kube/rc.
This KEP is tracked for alpha release in the ongoing v1.32 cycle.
