Join us at the 6th edition of Operator Day at KubeCon Europe – Speakers will talk about their software operator journey, from configuration management to application management.

Repatriation in cloud computing refers to moving workloads from the public cloud to on-premise infrastructure. Sarah Wang and Martin Casado from Andreessen Horowitz have written one of the most popular articles about repatriation: they explain the motivation with the significant cost savings possible. For software-based businesses, public

Large enterprises usually have more than 1,000 systems running. Even smaller organisations may have hundreds of applications in their public cloud spaces or on their servers. In this world of IT systems, application migrations are common for the following reasons: At some point, software reaches its end of life and is not supported anymor

Canonical has conducted surveys about Kubernetes and Cloud Native Operations in the past two years. As a member of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) and an active part of the community, we contribute the anonymised results back, along with our analyses and the insights of industry experts. Everyone can submit an answer anonymou

Canonical’s Charmed Kubernetes is a suite of open-source Kubernetes software bundled with many addons, including CNIs, CSIs, monitoring tools and cloud integrations. As Juju supports AWS, Charmed Kubernetes can be deployed and run on AWS seamlessly. In fact, many of our customers run their Charmed Kubernetes on AWS for production workload

The 5th Operator Day is coming up. It will take place at KubeCon North America 2022. This edition will center on cases where software operators have been applied successfully. Join us to hear about our experience in building software operators using Juju, an open-source operator lifecycle manager. Operators implemented for Juju are called

Running or operating applications requires several tasks throughout their lifecycle: scaling instances, checking the health, integrating with other applications, running backups, and applying updates – to name a few examples. It’s a time and labour-intensive process. To automate these tasks, developers can implement scripts for repeated e

Software operators are steadily revolutionising how we deploy and run complex distributed systems. They offer the promise of low-intervention, self-driving software – ideally leading to service reliability gains and better uptime. For an introduction to Kubernetes operators, check out our introductory webinar or download our guide to Kube

The software operator is a design pattern – it is a proven design that has been applied in many situations and implemented by several frameworks. Its widespread adoption in the industry has allowed us to study its consequences, both good and bad. This is important because software developers and IT architects need to know when

The software operator is a design pattern. Its design is based on successful applications where this approach was found useful. In other words, it’s a proven approach that can be recommended to others. But like all approaches, it’s important to understand their positive and negative impact. Software developers need to understand when the

The Operator Day at Kubecon EU 2022, hosted by Canonical, took place on Monday 16 May  2022. We thank everyone for attending the event. Our thanks go out especially to those who engaged with us via chat during the online event. We enjoyed answering questions and having conversations during the presentations.  If you missed Operator

The software operator is a design pattern. A design pattern describes the approach to cover the operational tasks of an application’s implementation. The first post in this series introduced the concept of a design pattern in general. The second post covers the software operator design pattern in particular. In the second part, we also ex

Capsule helps reduce the operational effort to operate and maintain secure multi-tenancy on Charmed Kubernetes. Users, teams, and departments can now share the same infrastructure without compromising security and usability.

Find out who the panelists are for the Industry Panel discussion during Operator Day on May 16th. During this virtual session industry thought leaders will discuss the latest trends and developments about Kubernetes and Operators. Our panelists are not only thought leaders in various areas of cloud-native technologies, but also work at le

The Cloud Native Computing Foundation’s flagship event, KubeCon & CloudNativeCon Europe 2022 is going to be held this year in Valencia, Spain from 16 – 20 May 2022. The event will also be held virtually on the same days. As the world is slowly getting back to its pre-pandemic habits, we expect KubeCon attendance to

This blog post continues with the previous blog post about design patterns and the software operator pattern. In this part, this post takes a closer look at the description of the software operator pattern. What is a design pattern? Over the years, the software development and programming community developed a common understanding of desi
