They include Argo Workflows, Argo CD, Argo Events, and Argo roll-outs. Argo is one of those Kubernetes projects that is so common for teams to choose that it's nearly an assumption that every team is using one of their tools in a cluster or two. Hong Wang and Jessie Suen helped co-create the Argo project years back at Intuit and have now co-founded a growing startup called Akuity. The company is focusing on making the Argo products better and creating SaaS offerings for the Argo tools. In this episode, we get a perspective on where the Argo tools came from and what the team behind it is doing.

They discuss how infrastructure as code fits into DevOps and Gitops, and how you can get started with IaC and run over some important patterns, such as controlling versioning, IaC testing and managing costs.Rosemary worked at ThoughtWorks previously, and it was interesting to hear her experiences on learning from senior engineering, and how pairing and other types of mentorship can help.

So you kind of got to know both worlds. But Shipa wants to fit in the middle somewhere, not replacing the infrastructure tools like Terraform or Crossplane, but rather working on top of them, providing an easier way to describe your apps from a dev's point of view and how they work on top of your infrastructure. It focuses on the application requirements, not necessarily how those requirements are implemented.

Includes demos.We talk about the origins of Docker Desktop for Linux, why it needs to exist, and how it's different than  running Docker Engine on the native host. Docker Desktop for Linux behaves like Mac and windows versions where it uses a VM and we clear up some confusion around that. Further, we talk about some of the functionality with operating it in tandem with Docker Engine on the host so you can run both at the same time and use context to switch between them. ★ Topics ★Download Docker Desktop for LinuxDocker RoadmapDocker Desktop for Linux GitHub IssuesDocker Developer Preview ProgramDocker Community SignupDockerCon 2022★ Join My Community ★Best coupons for my Docker and Kubernetes coursesChat with us on our Discord Server Vital DevOpsHomepage bretfisher.com (00:00) - DDT MAIN (00:04) - Show intro (00:53) - Bret intro (01:56) - Main show (02:14) - About Dave (03:15) - About Anca (04:45) - Compose is her favorite (06:16) - Why does Docker Desktop exist?

In this episode, Lukas and Rich break down a ton of ways vcluster is currently being used and where they see it going in the future.

Jim is the CEO and co-founder of Nirmata. He's also the founder of Kyverno, an CNCF Sandbox Project and open source project for managing policies in Kubernetes. We talk about what Kyverno is, what it isn't, and what problems it solves. We also talk a bit about Narmada and how it expands on that.If you're in a team using Kubernetes together, controlling settings and standards in your workloads and clusters can be a constant source of frustration unless you have something to govern those policies across all your workloads and clusters.Streamed live on YouTube on Feb 24, 2022.Unedited live recording of the complete show on YouTube (Ep #160). Includes demos.★Topics ★Kyverno is a policy engine designed for Kubernetes. With Kyverno, policies are managed as Kubernetes resources, and no new language is required to write policies. This allows using familiar tools such as kubectl, git, and kustomize to manage policies. Kyverno policies can validate, mutate, and generate Kubernetes resources plus ensure OCI image supply chain security. The Kyverno CLI can be used to test policies and validate resources as part of a CI/CD pipeline.Nirmata "Intelligent Guardrails for Kubernetes."

The waitlist allows you to quickly sign up for some content updates, discounts, and more as I finish building the course.https://courses.bretfisher.com/waitlist 🍾In this episode, Bret is joined by Portainer's co-founder and CEO, Neil Cresswell, to get an update on their product.

This is one of Bret's top 10 tools for consideration to manage your container environments. Neil will show off the latest from Portainer.io.
