@lemmy.mlDo you know about using Kubernetes Debug containers? They're really useful for troubleshooting well-built, locked-down images that are running in your cluster. I was thinking it would be nice if k9s had this feature, and lo and behold, it has a plugin! I just had to add that snippet to my ${HOME}/.config/k9s/plugins.yaml
, run k9s, find the pod, press enter to get into the pod's containers, select a container, and press Shift-D. The debug-container plugin uses the nicolaka/netshoot image, which has a bunch of useful tools on it. Easy debugging in k9s!
I got a Kubernetes survey from The Linux Foundation today and it had a question that asked how Kubernetes impacted my professional life. Good question. Here's my answer:
Kubernetes renewed my love for infrastructure and DevOps! As cloud platforms grew more popular, my job function changed; instead of managing services, I was managing "managed" services. I was losing the ability to actually build infrastructure with free, open source software (FOSS), and I was forced to become an expert in proprietary solutions. I switched to FOSS years ago because the idea of writing software for anyone in the world to use and modify - for free - was really inspiring! When I discovered Kubernetes, I was able to work with FOSS infrastructure again! Once I have compute, storage, and networking from the cloud platform, I can install Kubernetes, and actually manage my own services again!
I'm considering getting a Keychron K8 Pro or Q3 keyboard, but the keycaps don't have backlit letters. Annoyed. Anyone got other recommendations for a bluetooth TKL mechanical keyboard with backlit keys?
