In today’s enterprise computing landscape, multi-cloud organizations are quickly becoming the norm rather than the exception. By leveraging an API-first strategy with a microservice-based architecture, companies can achieve significant speed to market across multiple clouds. In order to achieve this, container orchestration and a well-designed CI/CD strategy are essential components in this journey.
We are happy to announce the release of Kuma 0.5! We are particularly proud for this release since it introduces about 30 new features and many improvements and – as usual – every Kuma improvement is always available on both Kubernetes and Universal (VMs) modes. This version of Kuma also ships with a new logo for the project! The new logo for Kuma signifies a new era for the project, driven by more feature maturity as well as more adoption within the community.
One of our API-first brethren in San Francisco recently shared with us how they built their synthetic testing system to monitor uptime and latency. It was a large undertaking involving a huge Redshift warehouse, Datadog and many man months of engineering effort. At the end of it, they could measure latency’s completeness, whether it was functionally correct and, when it moved out of bounds, alert CSM/engineering teams.
