PostmarketOS-Powered Kubernetes Cluster
(denv.it)
Having a few Raspberry Pi 4s at my disposal, I found myself somewhat dissatisfied with their processing capabilities and power management features. This led me to explore alternative solutions, particularly given the collection of old smartphones gathering dust in my drawer. These devices, while outdated for daily use, still pack considerable computing power. In this article, I’ll walk through how I transformed these old smartphones into a functional Kubernetes cluster using postmarketOS, giving them a second life as computing nodes.

Building the Ultimate Pi Kubernetes Cluster: A Journey into Cloud Scalability
(medium.com)
What if you could bring the power of the cloud into your own home? Imagine learning Kubernetes, scaling apps, and mastering CI/CD workflows — not in a sprawling data center, but on a cluster of Raspberry Pi’s sitting right on your desk. (And I used the Fractal Design North Pi Case :D, a baby variant of my full-size Fractal North Pc case)

I Didn't Need Kubernetes, and You Probably Don't Either
(benhouston3d.com)
Kubernetes often represents the ultimate solution for container orchestration, but my experience has led me to leave it behind in favor of a simpler, cost-effective solution using Google Cloud Run. This transition has made my infrastructure projects easier to manage, more scalable, and significantly cheaper. Here’s why I made this choice and how Cloud Run offers a better fit for my needs going forward.

Docker Swarm Classic (https://github.com/docker-archive/classicswarm) is dead. Docker Swarm Mode is alive, and I know some people use it, but it's very niche compared to k8s.

Upbound Elevates Platforming with new developer tooling for Crossplane
(upbound.io)
It's the eve of Kubecon in North America, and Upbound is celebrating by unwrapping a significant new release of capabilities. Chief among these are a brand new software development lifecycle (SDLC) for Crossplane with `control plane projects`, a raft of new core platform services that improve the security and robustness of control planes, and new free and low-cost access plans. Let's dig in.

We're Leaving Kubernetes
(gitpod.io)
Kubernetes seems like the obvious choice for building out remote, standardized and automated development environments. We thought so too and have spent six years invested in making the most popular cloud development environment platform at internet scale. That’s 1.5 million users, where we regularly see thousands of development environments per day. In that time we’ve found that Kubernetes is not the right choice for building development environments.
