• docker-compose on Fedora CoreOS - Major Hayden

  Deploying applications in containers provides lots of flexibility and compatibility benefits. Once you package your application and its dependencies in a container, that container runs almost anywhere without issues. Very few of the old “it worked on my machine!” problems remain. However, the challenge of running a container and linking it up with other helpful pieces of software still remains.

  Web applications need something to serve HTTP requests and handle TLS. They also need databases, and those databases must be online and available first. All of these need reliable storage that is easily managed.

  In my personal infrastructure, I keep coming back to docker-compose.

• Red Hat Insights enhancements reduce risks in hybrid cloud operating environments - Help Net Security

  Red Hat announced several enhancements to Red Hat Insights, its predictive analytics offering. This includes integrations for ServiceNow and Slack, as well as expanded monitoring capabilities to identify known threats in Red Hat OpenShift and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

  According to an IDC survey, “ease of deployment (33.5%), speed (31.9%), and vulnerability prioritization (30.4%) were the top three capabilities sought in DevSecOps tools. Taken together, this data suggests DevSecOps vendors must offer solutions that are a seamless part of the developer workflow and provide accurate and actionable results, while also communicating to CSO’s and upper management how the solution reduces the overall risk for the organization and fits as part of their comprehensive security strategy.”

• The partner opportunity: How Red Hat technologies unlock deeper business value for partners

  Behind every great solution is an ecosystem of collaborative partners. At least, that’s the case at Red Hat. Founded on the spirit of upstream open source innovation, every milestone in Red Hat’s history is connected to open collaboration and driven by a skilled, vibrant ecosystem of software providers, solution providers, systems integrators and more.

  As we build upon Red Hat’s open source portfolio, partners remain core to our vision and we continue to see the results with our customers. Therefore we are proud that CRN named Red Hat OpenShift Platform Plus and Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform 2 as winners for the 2022 CRN Tech Innovator Awards, with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 honored as a finalist.

  Red Hat provided Red Hat OpenShift and Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes to manage their fleet at scale in collaboration with Red Hat Consulting. As part of the solution, Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management delivers cloud-scale manageability by configuring the 5G RAN using a Distributed Unit (DU) profile, which deploys real-time OS kernel optimizations to run vRAN and other cloud-native application workloads from a single console. Red Hat OpenShift also incorporates zero-touch provisioning to enable distributed deployment at scale required to operate a large scale RAN.

• Code Comments - Season 1, Episode 4: Cockroach Labs and Resilience

  Ever been so frustrated with the options available that you build your own? Ben Darnell, Chief Architect and Co-Founder of Cockroach Labs, shares how his dissatisfaction with distributed databases led to the creation of CockroachDB. To build a distributed database that not only plans for but expects failures, they needed to implement the raft consensus algorithm. Getting it up and running was a tough technical challenge. But the result was an incredibly resilient database.
