How Kubernetes Became the New Linux

AWS just handed overKarpenterandKubernetes Resource Orchestrator (Kro)to Kubernetes SIGs. Big move. It's less about AWS-first, more about playing nice across the ecosystem. Kroauto-spins CRDs and microcontrollers for resource orchestration.Karpenterhandles just-in-time node provisioning - leaner, fa.. read more

How I Cut Kubernetes Debugging Time by 80% With One Bash Script

The reality of Kubernetes troubleshooting: 80% of the time is spent locating the issue, while only 20% is used for the fix. Managing eight Kubernetes clusters highlighted this pattern. A tool was developed to provide a complete cluster health report in under a minute, streamlining the process and sa.. read more

The guide to kubectl I never had.

Glasskube dropped a thorough guide tokubectl- the commands, the flags (--dry-run, etc.), how to chain stuff together, and how to keep your config sane. Bonus: a solid roundup ofkubectl plugins. Think observability (like K9s), policy checks, audit trails, and Glasskube’s take on declarative package m.. read more

Top 5 hard-earned lessons from the experts on managing Kubernetes

Running Kubernetes in production isn’t just clicking “Create Cluster.” It means locking down RBAC, tightening up network policy, tracking autoscaling metrics, and making sure your images don’t ship with surprises. Managed clusters help get you started. But real workloads need more: hardened configs,.. read more

20x Faster TRL Fine-tuning with RapidFire AI

RapidFire AI just dropped a scheduling engine built for chaos - and control. It shards datasets on the fly, reallocates as needed, and runs multipleTRL fine-tuning configs at once, even on a single GPU. No magic, just clever orchestration. It plugs into TRL withdrop-in wrappers, spreads training acr.. read more

Code execution with MCP: building more efficient AI agents

Code is taking over MCP workflows - and fast. With theModel Context Protocol, agents don’t just call tools. They load them on demand. Filter data. Track state like any decent program would. That shift slashes context bloat - up to 98% fewer tokens. It also trims latency and scales cleaner across tho.. read more

Hacking Gemini: A Multi-Layered Approach

A researcher found a multi-layer sanitization gap inGoogle Gemini. It let attackers pull off indirect prompt injections to leak Workspace data - think Gmail, Drive, Calendar - using Markdown image renders across Gemini andColab export chains. The trick? Sneaking through cracks between HTML and Markd.. read more

Wire it into your stack usingAWS CDK, which now has a dedicated construct to spin up HTTP APIs with minimal fuss. System-level shift:Serverless isn't just for .. read more  

Building serverless applications with Rust on AWS Lambda
Kata Containers is a Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) project designed to close the security gap between traditional Linux containers and virtual machines. Instead of sharing a single host kernel like standard containers, Kata Containers launches each pod or container inside its own lightweight virtual machine using hardware virtualization.

This approach dramatically reduces the attack surface and prevents container escape vulnerabilities, making Kata ideal for multi-tenant, untrusted, or sensitive workloads. Despite using VMs under the hood, Kata is optimized for fast startup times and integrates seamlessly with Kubernetes through the Container Runtime Interface (CRI), allowing it to be used alongside runtimes like containerd and CRI-O.

Kata Containers is commonly used in scenarios such as multi-tenant Kubernetes clusters, confidential computing, sandboxed AI workloads, serverless platforms, and agent execution environments where strong isolation is mandatory. It supports multiple hypervisors, including QEMU, Firecracker, and Cloud Hypervisor, and continues to evolve toward faster boot times, lower memory overhead, and better hardware acceleration support.
