Bharat Kalra
This article covers an ingress-nginx to Istio migration, architectural decisions, the RE2 vs PCRE regex incompatibility gotcha, URL rewrite differences, resource overhead comparison between sidecar and ambient mode, and a phased migration strategy.
Josh Woolbright
This tutorial shows how to secure an ArgoCD based EKS GitOps workflow with External Secrets Operator, IRSA, and AWS SSM Parameter Store so secrets stay out of Git and sync safely into Kubernetes.
Shanaka Jayasundera
This tutorial shows how to set up Kubernetes Gateway API on EKS using Istio Ambient Mesh exposed through AWS ALB, with Terraform, ArgoCD, and a layered architecture separating infra from app deployment.

This article explains how Spark Connect, CRIU, and ZeroPod can freeze idle Spark drivers to near-zero resources and restore full session state in about 300 milliseconds on Kubernetes.
Tools and utilities
eksup analyzes your EKS cluster and generates a step-by-step upgrade playbook, flagging deprecated APIs, add-on version mismatches, and node group issues before you upgrade.
Clabernetes is a Kubernetes controller that deploys valid containerlab topologies into a Kubernetes cluster, effectively bringing containerlab workflows into a distributed Kubernetes environment.
K8sgpt is a tool that scans Kubernetes clusters, diagnoses, and triages issues in simple English.
k10s is a terminal dashboard for watching multiple Kubernetes clusters at once, with side-by-side views, health signals, warnings, and recent logs in one screen.

Most teams scale Kubernetes by thinking about pods and nodes. At Render, Brian Stack ran into a different dimension: hundreds of thousands of namespaces per cluster, multiplied across DaemonSets that list-watch every namespace.
Brian explains how Render traced the issue through Calico and Vector, worked with upstream maintainers, and turned memory profiling into operational wins: lower node costs, lighter API-server load, and faster rollouts.

Learn from production
Kalyan Josyula
This case study shows how a team traced repeated pod OOM kills in ASP.NET Core to native memory growth from zombie SignalR connections, glibc fragmentation, and kernel socket buffers.
Nick Roan
This case study shows how a single RAG chunk size change collapsed vLLM prefix-cache hit rate from 85% to 4%, triggering an 80% GPU replica increase while latency stayed flat.
It also includes the fix: adding a two-phase cache replay gate in CI.
Dat Ton
This case study explains how cURL 65 errors and DNS resolution failures on AWS EKS were caused by Linux kernel network limits being exceeded, resolved by increasing netdev_budget, netdev_budget_usecs, and netdev_max_backlog parameters.
Matt Camp
This case study shows how Unitary built Osmia, an open-source orchestration layer on EKS to run autonomous AI coding agents safely at scale using pod isolation, Karpenter, IRSA-based secrets, and real-time trajectory scoring.
