Managing applications on Red Hat OpenShift gets complicated quickly. Updates break things, scaling requires constant attention, and recovery from failures eats up valuable time. OpenShift Operators eliminate these headaches by automating tasks that normally demand manual work from your team. These Kubernetes-native tools package, deploy, and manage services across your cluster.

When your application crashes or a region goes offline, the difference between backup and replication determines whether you’re back online in minutes or scrambling for days. Most IT teams confuse these two strategies, but they solve different problems. Backup creates point-in-time copies of your data for recovery after corruption or deletion. Replication maintains synchronized copies across systems for high availability and failover.

The default node pool VMs (worker nodes) in Azure do not have Intel virtualization extensions (VT-x) enabled. When trying to create a guest VM, you will see that the kubevirt VM pod will be unschedulable with the following error message: To fix this, you need to create a new node pool using an Azure VM flavor that has VT-x extensions. (those from the Ds_v3 series all have them)

Cloud native environments built on Kubernetes, containers, and microservices operate differently from traditional infrastructure. They scale dynamically, change continuously, and distribute workloads across multiple clusters and clouds. Legacy security tools can’t keep up with these demands.

A database-as-a-service (DBaaS) product eliminates the complexity of managing database infrastructure while reducing operational costs by up to 40%. Organizations can provision, configure, and scale databases instantly without hardware maintenance or software updates. MariaDB’s recent SkySQL reacquisition highlights the market shift toward flexible deployment models that support self-managed, hybrid, and fully managed environments.

In today’s geopolitical and regulatory climate, organizations and nations are increasingly embracing digital sovereignty—the ability to control and protect their data, infrastructure and operations within defined jurisdictions. The sovereign-cloud market is growing fast as governments and regulated enterprises demand local control, auditable supply-chains, and cloud-native resiliency.

OpenStack has long been the go-to platform for building private clouds, but its architecture, particularly the control plane, has undergone a significant transformation in the 15 years since its inception. The original design, a tightly coupled 3-node control plane, provided a stable foundation but presented challenges in scalability, resilience, and operational complexity.

Hi all! I am Rodolfo. I have been working in IT for more than 25 years, since Solaris 2.6, and I’ve seen a lot of changes on the industry. Can you imagine the difference between Solaris 2.6 and Kubernetes? How things were managed then and how they are managed now?

Docker and OpenShift solve different problems in containerization. Docker creates and runs containers, while OpenShift manages container deployments at enterprise scale using Kubernetes underneath it. Docker vs. Openshift isn’t about choosing one over the other but rather understanding which tool fits your specific use case. Docker excels at application packaging and local development. OpenShift handles production orchestration, security policies, and multi-team environments.

Ransomware attacks target your backups before anything else. Recent data shows that two-thirds of organizations faced ransomware in the past two years, with attackers specifically hunting backup infrastructure to eliminate recovery options. Once your backups are gone, you’re left with two choices: Pay up or lose your data permanently.
