This article takes you through advanced strategies and configuration options to safely enable and tune Linux swap for Kubernetes workloads, optimizing performance and resource utilization for memory-intensive apps.
Alexander Sharov
This article shows how to configure alerting rules for Loki using the PrometheusRule CRD so you can fire alerts based on log queries and metrics.
Rick Jen
This article walks through enabling Cilium VTEP (VXLAN tunnel) to connect external VMs to Kubernetes pods, and using eBPF/XDP + Inspektor Gadget to trace packet headers across that tunnel.
Satyam Dubey
This article presents Shared Socket, an eBPF-based method that bypasses much of the networking stack to enable fast TCP messaging between pods on the same node using sockmaps and kernel-level redirects.
Tools and utilities
Cloud Native Buildpacks transform your application source code into container images running on any cloud.
Numaflow is a Kubernetes-native tool for running massively parallel stream processing.
Forecastle is a control panel which dynamically discovers and provides a launchpad to access applications deployed on Kubernetes.
This project discovers and advertises SR-IOV virtual functions (VFs), physical functions (PFs), and auxiliary network devices as resources on Kubernetes nodes.
Zarf is a tool that simplifies software deployment to Kubernetes clusters in airgapped or disconnected environments.

Learn from production
Jan Ludvik
This case study shows how to improve Kubernetes node and pod startup times by caching images, enabling parallel pulls, and temporarily increasing EBS volume throughput.
Airtable
This case study shows how to implement a multi-cluster reconciler to manage Kubernetes resources across sharded clusters for fault tolerance.
It covers sharding stateless workloads across 3 clusters to limit the impact of infrastructure failures.
Yonghyun Kim
This case study describes how the team migrated the Always service (1.5M DAU, 3M MAU) from EC2 to Amazon EKS in ~2 months with zero downtime, using a GitOps Bridge, gradual traffic cutover with Route53 weighted routing, and Helm + ArgoCD workflows.
Thibault JAMET
This case study describes how a team migrated 30+ Kubernetes clusters from Sceptre/CDK/CloudFormation to Terraform, using iterative waves, custom import tooling, and CI-driven validation to minimize risk.

Hakan Apohan
This tutorial explains how to expose Kubernetes services without relying on cloud LoadBalancer support, using MetalLB + NGINX Ingress to provide stable IPs and path-based routing on bare-metal/air-gapped clusters.
Mahinsha Nazeer
This tutorial walks you through building a multi-node Kubernetes cluster on Raspberry Pis, and installing Cilium CNI for network, replacing kube-proxy for enhanced performance and policy enforcement.
John Tucker
This 3-part tutorial teaches how to deploy and configure vCluster for Kubernetes virtual clusters, including production setups with external etcd, high availability, and failure domain spreading.
Spacelift team
This tutorial teaches installing, configuring, and using Kube-State-Metrics to monitor Kubernetes object states via Prometheus queries and Grafana dashboards.

This article walks through which resource metrics (CPU, memory, node utilization, idle resources, PVCs) you should monitor to optimize Kubernetes costs and spot inefficiencies early.
SQANA
This article tells how a pod got stuck in Pending because the StatefulSet needed ReadWriteMany, but AWS EBS only supports ReadWriteOnce.
It shows how deleting the bad PVC and switching to ReadWriteOnce fixed everything.
Yiannis Englberger
This article shows how to mimic cloud load balancer behavior in bare-metal Kubernetes using Layer 2 ARP/NDP or BGP routing (via MetalLB or Cilium) to expose LoadBalancer services.
