[$] Bose and Kubernetes
Dylan O'Mahony, the cloud architecture manager for Bose,
opened a presentation at
KubeCon +
CloudNativeCon North America 2018 by noting that many attendees may be
wondering why a "50-year-old audio company" would be part of a presentation
on Kubernetes. It turns out that Bose was looking for ways to support its
smart-speaker products and found the existing solutions to be lacking.
Bose partnered with Connected, "a product development company from
Toronto", to use Kubernetes as part of
that solution, so O'Mahony and David Doyle from Connected were at the
conference to describe the prototype that they built. | | 6:45p |
Mourning Shaohua Li
The linux-kernel mailing list carries the sad news that Shaohua Li, a
talented contributor to much of the core kernel and the maintainer of the
MD RAID subsystem, passed away over the holidays. Thank you for your work,
Shaohua, you will certainly be missed. | | 10:36p |
[$] Migrating the Internet Archive to Kubernetes
The Internet Archive (IA) has been around for
over 20 years now; many will know it for its Wayback Machine, which is an archive of
old versions of web
pages, but IA is much more than just that. Tracey Jaquith said that she
and her IA colleague David Van Duzer would relate a "love/hate, long
adventure story—mostly love" about the migration of parts of IA to
Kubernetes. It is an ongoing process, but they learned a lot along the
way, so they wanted to share some of that with attendees of KubeCon +
CloudNativeCon North America 2018. | | 10:59p |
[$] Some unreliable predictions for 2019
The January 3 LWN.net Weekly Edition will be our first for 2019, marking
our return after an all-too-short holiday period. Years ago, we made the
ill-considered decision to post some predictions at the beginning of the
year and, like many mistakes, that decision has persisted and become an
annual tradition. We fully expect 2019 to be an event-filled year, with
both ups and downs; read on for some wild guesses as to what some of those
events may look like. |
