Platform9 in the News

Platform9 has extended the open source Fission.io serverless computing framework it developed for Kubernetes clusters to include a range of additional capabilities intended to make the serverless framework more accessible within the context of a DevOps environment.

In this video chat Sirish Raghuram talks about how you can take your legacy infrastructure to the cloud – no matter if it is on VMWare, Containers, serverless or something else.

Software complexity has grown dramatically over the past decade, and enterprises are looking to hybrid cloud technologies to help power their applications and critical DevOps pipelines. But with so many moving pieces, how can you gain confidence in your hybrid cloud investment?

In HBO’s hit series Game of Thrones, the mythical seven kingdoms are preparing for winter brought on by a force of zombie-like creatures called “White Walkers.” The phrase “winter is coming” is repeated throughout the course of the series, foreshadowing perils that lie ahead. With the changing seasons upon us, let’s consider what challenges are in store for enterprise cloud, and how to best prepare for the winter that is coming for software delivery and operations.

Platform9 announced a new release of Fission.io – an open source, Kubernetes-native Serverless framework – with new features enabling developers and IT Operations to improve the quality and reliability of serverless applications.

Kubernetes has emerged as the defacto standard in enabling IT to build out digital architectures to deliver on their business goals, and it is now a “must have” for whatever your organization’s level of digital maturity is. In this article, Vamsi Chemitiganti talks about the five fundamental business capabilities that Kubernetes can drive in the enterprise.

The problem Fission solves: even though Kubernetes has matured substantially in the last few years, it is still difficult to install, configure, and manage, especially for developers who’d rather be spending their time developing.

Der Cloudanbieter Platform 9 veröffentlicht das Tool „etcdadm“ unter der Apache-2.0-Lizenz. Das Kommandozeilentool liefert Etcd-Cluster aus und entspringt dem kommerziellen „Managed Kubernetes“-Angebot der Firma.

The new features include the ability to live-reload and record-replay application code. The first makes it easier to test and update applications in real-time, while the second removes the need to re-write code during application testing.

Platform9 just released updates to Fission.io – the open source, Kubernetes-native Serverless framework, with new features enabling developers and IT Operations to improve the quality and reliability of serverless applications.

Live-reload, Record-replay, Automated Canary Deployments, Prometheus integration, and more give both Dev and Ops confidence in the production-readiness of serverless applications, as well as easy troubleshooting, and cost/performance optimization.

Kubernetes is easily the most transformational cloud technology available today. It is the de facto standard for container orchestration, essentially functioning as an operating system for cloud-native applications.
