OSMC 2022 | That’s nuts! A proof of concept of Icinga2 on Kubernetes using Acorn

von Katja Kotschenreuther | Aug 12, 2023 | OSMC

This entry is part 10 of 10 in the series OSMC 2022

OSMC 2022 has brought lots of insightful open source expert know-how. In this blog series we will together take a glance back into our archives and pick out some of our highly appreciated speaker talks. Today we continue with Daniel’s Ignite talk “That’s nuts! A proof of concept of Icinga2 on Kubernetes using Acorn ”.

That’s what it’s all about

Icinga2 with its many moving parts, credentials for database, API, and other features, and layered topology can be considered a pretty complex system. When deploying to Kubernetes, it might in fact prove overwhelming when transitioning from ‘traditional’ setups.

In his Ignite Talk, Daniel will show you typical Icinga2 setups you might encounter in the wilds and how we can deploy them to Kubernetes clusters using acorn, a new deployment application framework for Kubernetes aimed at simplicity and developer experience. He will show you acorn’s basic idea(s), how it is configured and used in production, and where its shortcomings as of today might lie while going through the process of deploying a full-blown Icinga2 setup to a Kubernetes cluster.

OSMC 2022 | Providing a Rich Interface to the Prometheus Operator

von Katja Kotschenreuther | Jul 15, 2023 | OSMC

This entry is part 9 of 10 in the series OSMC 2022

OSMC 2022 has brought lots of insightful open source expert know-how. In this blog series we will together take a glance back into our archives and pick out some of our highly appreciated speaker talks. Today we continue with David’s talk “Providing a Rich Interface to the Prometheus Operator”.

That’s what it’s all about

Configuring Prometheus isn’t exactly on anyone’s top list of “fun nights in”, but it’s something we all need to do. We spend so much of our time slinging YAML that it can be easy to forget that there are alternatives to working with Kubernetes CRDs, so let’s spend some time together taking a look at an experience that puts the developer first.

In this session, David will guide you through using Pulumi to author and deploy your own Prometheus rules and alerts with a great developer experience that provides intelligent code auto-completion right within your favourite IDE: whether you write in Go, Python, TypeScript, or event dotNet.

OSMC 2022 | Scaling SLOs with Kubernetes and Cloud Native Observability

von Katja Kotschenreuther | Jun 10, 2023 | OSMC

This entry is part 8 of 10 in the series OSMC 2022

OSMC 2022 has brought lots of insightful open source expert know-how. In this blog series we will together take a glance back into our archives and pick out some of our highly appreciated speaker talks. Today we continue with George’s talk “Scaling SLOs with Kubernetes and Cloud Native Observability”.

That’s what it’s all about

Defining Service Level Objectives and Service Level Indicators is a really important aspect of implementing SRE. Through service metrics (SLOs, SLIs, Error Budgets), SRE can help us measure our system’s performance and improve customer experience. They not only enable your teams to monitor and plan around reliability, but can also be early predictors of customer satisfaction, NPS, churn rates, and more. With the rise of cloud native technologies, it has become more and more relevant to automate our observability, extending it to an SLO-as-code model.

In this session George will explain how SLOs have evolved and can be used in a Cloud Native world. He will then show how technologies like Kubernetes and Prometheus can help us scale SLOs, while promoting best practices and standards using Observability as code. Finally, he will show how to put all these together with Jenkins and Rancher, to operationalize error budgets.

OSMC 2022 | Metrics Stream Processing Using Riemann

von Katja Kotschenreuther | Apr 15, 2023 | OSMC

This entry is part 6 of 10 in the series OSMC 2022

OSMC 2022 has brought lots of insightful open source expert know-how. In this blog series we will together take a glance back into our archives and pick out some of our highly appreciated speaker talks. Today we continue with Pradeep’s talk “Metrics Stream Processing Using Riemann”.

That’s what it’s all about

In his talk, Pradeep will give you an introduction to Riemann including the following topics:

In-memory stream processing system written in clojure
How it can easily process millions of events per second
Configuration is clojure code

He explains what problems Riemann solves in the today’s world of Prometheus & Datadog

High cardinality metrics problem: Since all processing is done in*memory, riemann can handle high cardinality issue much better than prometheus.
Instant detection: Since riemann uses websockets, an issue is instantly reflected into dashboard. In prometheus, it will only get reflected after next scrape.
