The 'Lift-and-Shift' Trap: Why Cloud Migrations Go Wrong

Lift-and-shiftplays like a hit song on the AM radio—it’s a decent tune, but lacks soul. Cloud-native? Now that's a rock concert, shaking the ground with power. Redefine apps, don't just shuffle the old stuff upstairs... read more

Server-Driven UI: Agile Interfaces Without App Releases

Server-driven UI (SDUI) shifts UI control to the server, allowing for instant, dynamic updates without app releases. JSON payloads define components, improving agility but requiring client-side rendering adjustments. Complex UI changes may still need app updates due to missing client-side components.. read more

Debugging the One-in-a-Million Failure: Migrating Pinterest’s Search Infrastructure to Kubernetes

Migrating Pinterest's search infrastructure to Kubernetes—toasty, right? But it tripped over a rare hiccup: sluggish 5-second latencies. The culprit? cAdvisor, overzealously spying on memory like a helicopter parent. Flicking off WSS? Problem evaporated... read more

Wix Adds Chaos to CI/CD Pipelines with AI and Improves Reliability

Wixhas slipped probabilistic AI into the mix inCI/CD, and it doesn't clutter the works. This AI chews through build logs, shaving off hours from developer workloads. Migrating 100 modules took three months? Not anymore. They've sliced it to a mere 24-48 hours by marrying AI insights with their sharp.. read more  

Wix Adds Chaos to CI/CD Pipelines with AI and Improves Reliability
Pelagia is a Kubernetes controller that provides all-in-one management for Ceph clusters installed by Rook. It delivers two main features:

Aggregates all Rook Custom Resources (CRs) into a single CephDeployment resource, simplifying the management of Ceph clusters.
Provides automated lifecycle management (LCM) of Rook Ceph OSD nodes for bare-metal clusters. Automated LCM is managed by the special CephOsdRemoveTask resource.

It is designed to simplify the management of Ceph clusters in Kubernetes installed by Rook.

Being solid Rook users, we had dozens of Rook CRs to manage. Thus, one day we decided to create a single resource that would aggregate all Rook CRs and deliver a smoother LCM experience. This is how Pelagia was born.

It supports almost all Rook CRs API, including CephCluster, CephBlockPool, CephFilesystem, CephObjectStore, and others, aggregating them into a single specification. We continuously work on improving Pelagia's API, adding new features, and enhancing existing ones.

Pelagia collects Ceph cluster state and all Rook CRs statuses into single CephDeploymentHealth CR. This resource highlights of Ceph cluster and Rook APIs issues, if any.

Another important thing we implemented in Pelagia is the automated lifecycle management of Rook Ceph OSD nodes for bare-metal clusters. This feature is delivered by the CephOsdRemoveTask resource, which automates the process of removing OSD disks and nodes from the cluster. We are using this feature in our everyday day-2 operations routine.
