After over a decade of running a homelab, I have learned a few difficult lessons. Although it begins as a “lab,” you inevitably end up with something you want to keep. If a service goes down for an extended period of time or you lose data, it can feel catastrophic. The anxiety of missed emails
In this article we walk through the steps required to deploy a Spring Boot application to production using Juju and Kubernetes. The goal is to showcase the integration of the application with essential services like PostgreSQL for database management and Traefik for ingress control.
Telecommunications networks are undergoing a cloud-native revolution. 5G promises ultra-fast connectivity and real-time services, but achieving those benefits requires an infrastructure that is agile, low-latency, and highly reliable. Kubernetes has emerged as a cornerstone for telecom operators to meet 5G demands. In 2025, Canonical Kube

A note from the editor: This post was written by Zhanglei Mao. This blog explores the successful integration of Huawei OceanStor hybrid flash storage systems with Canonical Kubernetes, demonstrating how enterprises can unlock resilient, enterprise-grade storage in cloud-native environments. The integration benefits companies across differ
One of my favourite authors, Douglas Adams, once said that “we are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works.” Whilst Adams is right about a lot of things, he got this one wrong – at least when it comes to infrastructure. As our Infra Masters 2025 event demonstrated, infrastructure
Choosing the right Container Network Interface (CNI) for Kubernetes is critical to achieving optimal performance, security, and scalability. With the launch of Canonical Kubernetes LTS (long-term support) last month, Canonical decided to integrate Cilium as the default CNI in order to reflect our commitment to delivering a modern, securit
It’s hard to believe that the first KubeCon took place nearly 10 years ago. Back then, Kubernetes was still in its early days, and the world was only just beginning to understand the power of container orchestration. Fast-forward to today, and Kubernetes is a fundamental part of cloud-native development, taught in universities as a key
