"kaniko is a tool to build container images from a Dockerfile, inside a container or Kubernetes cluster.

kaniko doesn't depend on a Docker daemon and executes each command within a Dockerfile completely in userspace. This enables building container images in environments that can't easily or securely run a Docker daemon, such as a standard Kubernetes cluster."

"KubeSquash is a tool for live debugging of microservices running on Kubernetes. By attaching modern debuggers to your microservices application, KubeSquash gives you the full strength of live debugging : getting/setting the value of variables, adding pauses and sleeps in certain portions of the code, forcing the execution of specific code paths, etc.

KubeSquash is extremely easy to launch, and requires No server. Its user interface is dead simple: invoke with a single command ksquash, target the desired pod, and the debugging session is initiated automatically with zero configuration or effort."

"This tutorial walks you through setting up Kubernetes the hard way. This guide is not for people looking for a fully automated command to bring up a Kubernetes cluster. If that's you then check out Google Kubernetes Engine, or the Getting Started Guides.

Kubernetes The Hard Way is optimized for learning, which means taking the long route to ensure you understand each task required to bootstrap a Kubernetes cluster."

"Vitess is a database solution for deploying, scaling and managing large clusters of MySQL instances. It's architected to run as effectively in a public or private cloud architecture as it does on dedicated hardware. It combines and extends many important MySQL features with the scalability of a NoSQL database. Vitess can help you with the following problems:

Scaling a MySQL database by allowing you to shard it, while keeping application changes to a minimum.
Migrating from baremetal to a private or public cloud.
Deploying and managing a large number of MySQL instances.

Vitess includes compliant JDBC and Go database drivers using a native query protocol. Additionally, it implements the MySQL server protocol which is compatible with virtually any other language.

Vitess has been serving all YouTube database traffic since 2011, and has now been adopted by many enterprises for their production needs."

"Docker Inc. express a preference that container labels should be namespaced. Label Schema is a community project to provide a shared namespace for use by multiple tools, specifically org.label-schema.

By providing a shared and community owned namespace we aim to:

Avoid duplication in cases where the same information is needed in multiple labels

Encourage the use of labels, both by image creators and by tool builders which might consume them

Codify good community practice in a way that is easy to consume and keep up-to-date with"

"The BFG is a simpler, faster alternative to git-filter-branch for cleansing bad data out of your Git repository history:

Removing Crazy Big Files Removing Passwords, Credentials & other Private data"

"The original intent of the CNCF Serverless Working Group was to explore the intersection of cloud native and serverless technology. As a result of that work the following artifacts were produced:
