This case study explains why Nginx Ingress Controller causes TCP connection timeouts on GKE during pod termination.
It traces:
Fabián Sellés Rosa
This article explains how one team evaluated Crossplane and KRO to replace KIAM with EKS Pod Identities, balancing flexibility, maturity, and operational overhead after outages.
Alexandr Ivenin
This tutorial shows how to automate EKS deployments with Argo CD, Argo CD Image Updater, GitHub, and Amazon ECR so new container images flow to the cluster through GitOps without manual deployment steps.
This article explains how the Kubernetes Image Promoter was rewritten to improve rate limiting, observability, and resilience in the pipeline that publishes and signs images for registry·k8s·io.
Tools and utilities
SlimFaas is a lightweight Function-as-a-Service platform for Kubernetes that supports:
ing-switch scans your cluster, maps 50+ NGINX annotations for compatibility, and generates ready-to-apply manifests for Traefik or Gateway API with a React web UI dashboard for the full scan → analyze → migrate → validate lifecycle.
Telescope is a web based log viewer that lets teams explore Kubernetes, Docker, ClickHouse, and StarRocks logs through one interface with filtering, graphs, RBAC, and GitHub authentication.
KubeUser is a Kubernetes native operator that manages users, certificates, RBAC, and kubeconfigs declaratively for small teams that want simple cluster access without a full IAM or OIDC stack.
Skiperator is a Kubernetes operator that lets developers deploy applications through a simple Application resource while the platform handles secure and reliable setup around it.

A single Kubernetes CRD for every service request turns small changes into full-platform reconciliations.
Alexander Held, former platform engineer at Mercedes-Benz Tech Innovation, describes a production refactor from a 2,000-line CRD to purpose-built resources and controllers. He shows how teams can model business workflows as Kubernetes APIs and then use owner references, finalizers, and events to keep platform operations predictable.

Learn from production
Ejiroghene Laurel Dafe
This case study shows how one engineer resolved two real Kubernetes production incidents involving an overly aggressive Ingress rate limit and Istio breaking non-HTTP socket traffic.
Maxim Nazarenko
This case study explains how to migrate bound Kubernetes volumes from deprecated in-tree Azure Disk provisioning to CSI with in-place PVC re-binding, minimal restarts, and no data loss across production disks.
DV Engineering
This case study shows how DoubleVerify built a Kubernetes and Ray serving platform to deploy and scale ML models in production.
It also covers RayService wrapped with Helm, fault tolerance with external Redis, and platform gains like 30% lower GPU cost.
Varun Arora
This case study shows building a centralized multi-account AWS monitoring platform managing 25+ accounts using Python Boto3 to fetch resource configurations into MongoDB, with Flask API and Next.js frontend achieving $30k annual savings.

This tutorial explains how to use KEDA on GKE to autoscale workloads based on event-driven signals rather than just CPU or memory.
Franck Pachot
This tutorial shows how to install CloudNativePG 1.28 operator and deploy a three-node PostgreSQL cluster with synchronous replication and quorum-based failover, then tests transient failure recovery by pausing the primary container.
