However, how can we perform workload testing in a Kubernetes-based deployment to get the optimal amount of resources? In the past, we worked with tools like... [Read More]

HPA allows you to automatically scale the number of pod replicas (container instances) based on the workload. When demand increases, HPA creates more replicas to handle it, and when demand decreases, it reduces the number of replicas to optimize resource usage. [Read More]

One of the most important things you face when working with technical problems remotely without the possibility of touching real environments with your hands is reproducing similar scenarios to test and troubleshoot. While numerous solutions exist, the need for a flexible and easy-to-deploy setup led me to create a pair... [Read More]

In the world of digital transformation, building great products is only half the battle. The real challenge lies in ensuring they are adopted effectively. Product adoption is the bridge between potential and performance—it turns features into outcomes and technology into business value. [Read More]

In a recent project aimed at enhancing automation capabilities and observability, I undertook integrating Ansible with OpenTelemetry to create a more robust event-driven architecture. This initiative was executed as a Microlab for the attendees of the Red Hat Summit Connect in Madrid, focusing on leveraging Ansible Automation Platform alongside OpenTelemetry... [Read More]
