Behind the Helm (April 2023)

This is the web edition of the Behind the Helm, Scaleway's monthly Kubernetes newsletter. For the best Kubernetes news in your inbox every month, subscribe today!

Hello lovely subscribers!

Spring is fully under way, and the Kubernetes image registry redirection has now super-definitely-happened. If you haven’t yet updated your pipelines to pull from registry.k8s.io, get on with it ASAP!

Last month, we started a new livestream series called Call Dr. Kube, where we find K8s experts and pick their brains with tricky questions. Our first session featured Arnaud Alcabas, one of our incredible Solutions Architects—check it out!

This month we were joined by the fantastic Arthur Busser as Dr. Kube. Between Kubernetes, DevOps wizardry, and more, it was a great episode! As always, you can find us on our Twitch and YouTube channels.

On April 11, Kubernetes version 1.27 (codenane: Chill Vibes) was released, including a lot of new features. Of particular interest might be the new capabilities for pods to resize themselves without restarting, allowing for much more dynamic resource allocation.

Earlier this month, the CNCF also completed its third-party security audit of Kubernetes, based on version 1.24; you can read the full report here.

Scaleway hosted our second KubeTalks meetup on Thursday 27th, featuring talks (en français!) from Padok’s Sacha Bernheim, and our very own DevOps engineer Leïla Marabese. Missed out this time around? No worries: see what events are coming up next!

We’ve also got some new K8s articles for you to check out; read all about what’s hot in the tooling world, or if you missed last month’s KubeTalks, this write-up of my talk about user authentication.

That’s all for this month! May your clusters be fully operational, and your deployments smooth.

Yours,
Eli & the rest of the Scaleway team
