OpenTelemetry graduates at CNCF. Chris Aniszczyk explains what it means for AI agents, GPU-native clouds, and vendor-neutral observability.

Modern Swift services increasingly run alongside the same cloud native infrastructure stacks that power much of today’s Kubernetes ecosystem — including ConfigMaps, containerized workloads, declarative deployments, and service lifecycle management. Projects such as Prometheus and OpenTelemetry...

Modern software delivery is no longer constrained by application code — it is constrained by the platform that runs it. This article presents the design of a cloud-native Internal Developer Platform (IDP) built on Kubernetes and...

I still remember the first time we lost sleep over something that wasn’t a bug. It was a Tuesday. Grafana dashboards showed blank panels for Cilium network metrics. Hubble was working fine — DNS visibility, TCP...

Kubernetes 1.36 adds native GPU scheduling via Workload Aware Scheduling and DRA, plus stable fine-grained Kubelet authorization. Ryota Sawada, Release Lead, explains what changed.

If you run GPU workloads on Kubernetes — vLLM, Triton, training jobs, or the newer agentic inference stacks — you’ve probably hit a familiar problem: the default autoscaling path still reasons about CPU and memory, while...

The 2026 CNCF TOC cohort has an unusual pattern: three of the incoming members; Brandt, former TAG Security, lead; Mario, former TAG Operational Resilience lead, and Mauricio Salatino, former TAG Developer Experience co-chair, came straight out of...

As software architectures evolve, observability tools must adapt. When the industry moved to microservices, distributed tracing became a necessity. Jaeger emerged as a core tool for engineers to understand those fragmented systems. Now, as organizations integrate...

Teams running Ingress NGINX in production are increasingly evaluating migration paths as Kubernetes networking evolves toward Gateway API. For many organizations, the challenge is not just selecting a Gateway API implementation, but designing a migration strategy...

Kubernetes has become the backbone of modern cloud-native infrastructure. Its flexibility lets teams move fast, compose complex systems from modular components, and deploy across environments with relative ease. But that flexibility comes with a well-known cost:...
