@cloudstrata — Red Hat OpenShift is the leading application development platform for building and modernizing cloud-native applications. The platform addresses use cases for DevOps, DevSecOps, and hybrid cloud administration for cloud-native workloads running in any environment — on-prem, public or private cloud, at the edge, or a hybrid mix of all. Security…

@cloudstrata — Introduction: In this article, I’m just going to share one of the possible implementations for GitOps using Red Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (RHACM). The purpose is to highlight some issues that could arise while trying to use both Kustomize and the Policy Generator at the same time and to provide a possible mitigation.

@cloudstrata — In a previous article, we introduced the MPI Operator from the Kubeflow project. We used it to perform a particular type of MPI processing job: computational fluid dynamics (CFD) with the OpenFOAM toolkit. When you break down what’s going on in a typical OpenFOAM processing run, you have a lot…

@cloudstrata — There are multiple articles about GitOps describing how to use ArgoCD with Kustomize to configure multiple clusters or environments. They show a nice way to apply some kustomizations, but when you try you implement it in your organization, you’ll probably face the following “How can I” challenges: Dynamically add new…

@cloudstrata — When the organizations started to adopt Kubernetes platforms, like OpenShift, many years ago, the most common scenario was a single cluster for all the workloads. However, as the rate of OpenShift adoption got faster inside the organizations, more clusters were needed. And each organization started to work on its own…

@cloudstrata — Data is foundational to any digital transformation strategy, yet many organizations struggle to understand what data they have, how to extract insights from it, and how to govern it — according to a 2022 Evanta survey, over half of Chief Data Officers (CDOs) struggle with siloed operating models when it…

@cloudstrata — Introduction One of the first questions I am asked when setting up OpenShift-Gitops (based on ArgoCD) are: “How do I use it for automatic onboarding of new projects and how can I limit access to the different clusters and different teams?” While there are different approaches, I usually suggest the…
