What a user is allowed to do in a program is usually defined by a role model, which often poses numerous challenges, especially in the cloud or for infrastructure as code. The free Open Policy Agent offers a flexible way to manage user rights.
Teleport centrally manages logins against various protocols, including SSH, Kubernetes, and databases. Functions such as two-factor authentication are included in the scope of delivery, as is management of your own certificates.
The Rancher lightweight alternative to Red Hat's OpenShift gives admins a helping hand when entering the world of Kubernetes, but with major differences in architecture.
We look at the benefits of Kubernetes outside of large corporate environments.
YAML is often the language of choice when configuring complex environments. We help you get started with YAML and the YAML parser yq.

Kubernetes has limited support for multitenancy, so many admins prefer to build multiple standalone Kubernetes clusters that eat up resources and complicate management. As a solution, Loft launches any number of clusters within the same control plane.
Modern scale-out environments with containers make log collection difficult. We present concepts and methods for collecting application logfiles with a sidecar container in Kubernetes environments.
Enforce container compliance in Kubernetes in one of two ways: with Open Policy Agent or Gatekeeper.
