Moving Kafka and Debezium to Kubernetes Using Strimzi - the GitOps Way
Deploying an Apache Kafka cluster to a Kubernetes is not an easy task. There are a lot of pieces to configure like the zookeeper, the Kafka cluster, topics, and users. Strimzi is a Kubernetes controller making the deployment process of Kafka a child game. Moreover, Strimzi lets you manage Kafka using GitOps methodology as everything is executed using a Kubernetes YAML file.

DevOps at Schneider: a Meaningful Journey of Engaging People into Change
Adopting DevOps at Schneider started with building a case for change. Tech people were engaged into change by organizing learning and collaboration sessions and getting feedback from the front lines. Change is hard and without leadership support, dedicated time for developers to really digest it and continual reinforcement and conversation, it will be challenging to be successful.

Building Workflows with AWS Step Functions
AWS Step Functions use a state machine to represent the workflow. A workflow consists of a set of tasks, each of which represents a discrete activity to be performed. Each task is defined by a state of the state machine. In this article, we will learn about the main concepts of AWS Step Functions and apply those to build a workflow for a sample business process: Order Fulfillment.

Cloud Native Network Functions Are Here
Compute elasticity, for instance, is reasonably allocated with virtual machines, containers, and orchestrators and managed with CI/CD pipelines. Network elasticity seems to be lacking in implementation. In this article, we show that cloud native network functions are an attempt to bring network applications into the cloud native world.

Managing Kubernetes Secrets with the External Secrets Operator
Kubernetes doesn’t yet have the capabilities to manage the lifecycle of secrets, so sometimes we need external systems to manage this sensitive information. Once the amount of secret information we need to manage increases, we may need additional tools to simplify and better manage the process. In this article, we’ll take a detailed look at one of these tools, the External Secrets Operator.
