We have just upgraded our APPUiO Cloud clusters from version 4.11 to version 4.13 of Red Hat OpenShift, and there are some interesting new features for our APPUiO Cloud and APPUiO Managed users we would like to share with you.

Yesterday evening, on Monday, July 24th, 2023, at around 21:15 CEST / 12:15 PDT, our security team received a notification about a critical security vulnerability called “Zenbleed” potentially affecting the cloud providers where VSHN’s customers systems run on.

We are thrilled to announce the second edition of our “DevOps in Switzerland” report!

The VSHN Canada Hackday turned into an epic two-day adventure, where excitement and productivity went hand in hand.

Kubernetes is a powerful platform for deploying and managing containerized applications at scale, and it has become increasingly popular in Switzerland in recent years.

As part of the fourth VSHN HackDay taking place yesterday and today (October 20th and 21st, 2022), Simon Gerber and I (Tobias Brunner) worked on the idea to get Tailscale VPN running on APPUiO Cloud.

Back in 2019 we published a review of the most relevant serverless frameworks available for Kubernetes in 2021. We decided to return to this subject and provide an update for our readers.

As part of our ongoing improvement process, we evaluate the requirements and new features of each version of Red Hat OpenShift, not only for our customers, but also for our internal use.

We are thrilled and honored to announce that K8up, the Kubernetes backup operator created by VSHN, has entered the CNCF Project Onboarding process!

Let’s take a somewhat tangential approach to the subject of the Microservices architecture.

Open source container technologies are an important measure to protect data.

We celebrate the 30th birthday of Linux and reflect upon its influence, past, and future.

We’re very happy to announce a new member of the Project Syn family: the new Commodore Components Hub. This is the new central point of reference and information for all Commodore components available in GitHub.
