Tools and utilities

  • k8s-sidecar

    k8s-sidecar is a tool that collects and updates configuration files from Kubernetes ConfigMaps and Secrets and can also send HTTP requests to a specified URL after a change is detected.

  • kubectl-rexec: exec audit

    kubectl-rexec is a kubectl plugin that provides full audit logging for kubectl exec sessions, addressing the security gap where standard exec commands leave no trace of what happens inside containers.

  • Korrel8r: observability correlation engine

    Korrel8r is a rule-based correlation engine that automatically discovers and graphs relationships between Kubernetes cluster resources and observability signals across Prometheus, Loki, Alertmanager, and the Kubernetes API.

  • kubechecks: App Updates

    Kubechecks allows users of GitHub and GitLab to see exactly what their changes will affect on their current Argocd deployments and automatically run various conformance test suites prior to merging.

  • H8s (Homernetes)

    H8s is a home infrastructure project combining Kubernetes with Talos OS security, running on 2 N100 mini PCs with GitOps deployment via ArgoCD.

Patroni Backups: when pgBackRest and Argo CD have your back (literally)
Patroni Backups: when pgBackRest and Argo CD have your back (literally)

Your database backup strategy shouldn't be the thing that takes your production systems down.

Ziv Yatzik manages 600+ Postgres clusters in a closed network environment with no public cloud. After existing backup solutions proved unreliable — causing downtime when disks filled up — his team built a new architecture using pgBackRest, Argo CD, and Kubernetes CronJobs.

In this episode:

  • Why storing WAL files on shared NAS storage prevents backup failures from cascading into database outages
  • How GitOps with Argo CD lets them manage backups for hundreds of clusters by adding a single YAML file
  • The Ansible + Kubernetes hybrid approach that keeps VM-based Patroni clusters in sync with Kubernetes-orchestrated backups

A practical blueprint for making database backups boring, reliable, and safe.
