Kubernetes

This detailed tutorial answers the question of how to leverage Amazon's AWS Fargate container technology for GitLab Runners.

In a SaaS environment, the compute, storage, and bandwidth resources are often shared among tenants, but this makes it challenging to deduce per tenant cost. A SaaS application running on a Kubernetes cluster on AWS adds a layer of further complexity as far as calculating the per tenant cost. Kubernetes is great at abstracting away the underlying pool of hardware. It almost gives us an illusion of having access to a single large compute resource.

Provision a Kubernetes Cluster in AWS. Configure the AWS CLI to provide IAM credentials to Terraform, clone an example repository, and deploy the cluster. Configure kubectl and the Kubernetes dashboard. Finally destroy the cluster.

Making old computers do modern things is fun and helps me learn things. In this post, experience my adventure deploying a Kubernetes application from a TRS-80 Model 102, also known as Tandy 102, a portable computer made in 1986. Enjoy the wonders of how surprisingly little things have changed in the world of computing in the last 40 years.

To meet user demand, dynamic HTTP-based applications require constant scaling of Kubernetes pods. For applications exposed through Kubernetes ingress objects, the AWS Application Load Balancer (ALB) distributes incoming traffic automatically across the newly scaled replicas. When Kubernetes applications scale down due to a decline in demand, certain situations will result in brief interruptions for end […]

Overview Data transfer costs can play a significant role in determining the overall design of a system. Amazon Elastic Container Registry (Amazon ECR), Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS), and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) can incur data transfer charges depending on a variety of factors. It can be difficult to visualize what that means […]

Data transfer charges are often overlooked when operating Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS) clusters; understanding these charges would help reduce cost while operating your workload on Amazon EKS at production scale. Common scenarios for data transfer charges on EKS Understanding general data transfer charges on AWS will help you better understand the EKS networking […]

Apache Spark is an open-source lightning-fast cluster computing framework built for distributed data processing. With the combination of Cloud, Spark delivers high performance for both batch and real-time data processing at a petabyte scale. Spark on Kubernetes is supported from Spark 2.3 onwards, and it gained a lot of traction among enterprises for high performance and […]

An operating system designed for hosting containers

Topology Aware Hints (TAH) is a feature that available in Amazon EKS version 1.24. It’s intended to provide a mechanism that attempts to keep traffic closer to its origin within the same AZ on in another location. In this post, we’ll explore how this feature can be used with Amazon EKS, its effects on how traffic is routed between pods within an Amazon EKS cluster when using multiple AZs, and whether this functionality allows Amazon EKS customers to optimize the latency and inter-AZ data transfer costs in this architecture.

AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containerized workloads running on Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (Amazon EKS). Once a containerized workload has been scheduled by a container orchestrator, AWS Fargate provides a serverless compute environment to run that workload removing the operational overhead to secure, scale, and […]

“Sir, your application is continually getting throttled,” I repeated. The highly skilled team that I was brought in to help with an outage was in disbelief. They had been using the same limits configuration in production for over two years. Yet, the Grafana chart was definitive: CPU throttling was causing the outage they were currently […]

Kubernetes is a scalable container orchestrator that helps you build fault-tolerant, cloud native applications. It can handle automatic container placement, scale up and down, and provision resources for your containers to run. While Kubernetes can take care of many things, it can’t solve problems it doesn’t know about. Usually these are called unknown unknowns and […]
