Flipkart ditched its creakyStatsD + InfluxDBstack for afederated Prometheussetup—built to handle 80M+ time-series metrics without choking. The move leaned intopull-based collection,PromQL's firepower, andhierarchical federationfor smarter aggregation and long-haul queries. Why it matters:Prometheus..

A barebonestime-sharing OS kernel, written inZig, running onRISC-V. It leans onOpenSBIfor console I/O and timer interrupts. Threads? Statically allocated, each running inuser mode (U-mode). The kernel stays insupervisor mode (S-mode), where it catchessystem callsandcontext switchesvia timer ticks. ..

**Budget Controls for AWS** just got better. The open-source tool now reins in more than just EC2. It wrangles **RDS Aurora**, **SageMaker**, and **OpenSearch** too. Under the hood, it taps **AWS Budgets**, **AWS Config**, and **custom tags** to watch spend like a hawk. Hit a budget threshold? It c..

Stress tests on the Ryzen 9 5900X uncovered a big gap between **reported CPU utilization** and what the chip actually pushes. Around 50% on paper? Could mean close to full throttle in reality—thanks to sneaky behaviors from **SMT resource sharing** and **Turbo frequency scaling**. **Takeaway:** Raw..

A new SLI evolution model lays out a maturity roadmap—from rebranded latency/error metrics to ones that actually track business impact. It replaces shallow signals and pulls in the stuff that matters: how service failures hit user goals, tasks, and bottom lines...

A fresh roundup drops20 go-to Linux commandsfor production sysadmins, dialing in on modern defaults likehtop > top,ss > netstat, andip > ifconfig. The shift? Faster tools that actually get updates. Built with systemd in mind, too. Expect the usual suspects—journalctl,rsync,crontab—all still pulling..

Azure dropped **AKS Automatic**, a new managed Kubernetes tier that tries to do it all—so you don’t have to. It comes with baked-in best practices: autoscaling via HPA, VPA, KEDA, and Karpenter. Automated patching. Node repair. Monitoring. All wired up by default. You still get full access to the ..

Kubernetes 1.34 rolls in **consumable capacity** for Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA). That means device plugins can now carve up resources—GPU memory, NIC bandwidth, etc.—into precise slices for Pods, ResourceClaims, and namespaces. The scheduler tracks it all, so nothing spills over...

Kubernetes v1.34 lands with an alpha upgrade to **[KEP-4680](https://github.com/kubernetes/enhancements/tree/master/keps/sig-node/4680-add-resource-health-to-pod-status)**, pushing **Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA)** into smarter territory: health-aware Pods. DRA drivers can now stream device heal..

Kubernetes 1.34 graduates the taint eviction controller to GA. Now, the node lifecycle controller only applies taints, while a dedicated taint eviction controller manages pod eviction. First split in 1.29, now stable in 1.34...
