Accelerate State of DevOps ReportGet a comprehensive view of the DevOps industry, providing actionable guidance for organizations of all sizes. Download In a previous episode of CRE Life Lessons, we discussed how service level objectives (SLOs) are an important tool for defining and measuring the reliability of your service. There’s also a whole chapter in the SRE book about this topic. In this ep

Open-sourcing gVisor, a sandboxed container runtime Containers have revolutionized how we develop, package, and deploy applications. However, the system surface exposed to containers is broad enough that many security experts don't recommend them for running untrusted or potentially malicious applications. A growing desire to run more heterogenous and less trusted workloads has created a new inter

Your guide to Kubernetes best practicesOur entire Kubernetes best practices blog series in one location. By Google Cloud Content & Editorial • 3-minute read Containerizing interpreted languagesInterpreted languages, such as Ruby, Python, Node.js, PHP and others send source code through an interpreter that runs the code. This gives you the benefit of skipping the compilation step, but has the downs

Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL now generally available and ready for your production workloads Among open-source relational databases, PostgreSQL is one of the most popular—and the most sought-after by Google Cloud Platform (GCP) users. Today, we’re thrilled to announce that PostgreSQL is now generally available and fully supported for all customers on our Cloud SQL fully-managed database service. Backe

Introducing kaniko: Build container images in Kubernetes and Google Container Builder without privileges Building images from a standard Dockerfile typically relies upon interactive access to a Docker daemon, which requires root access on your machine to run. This can make it difficult to build container images in environments that can’t easily or securely expose their Docker daemons, such as Kube

Ten years ago, we announced Google App Engine with a simple video and a blog post. It is truly humbling to look back at the strides we have made with App Engine, how it’s changed application development, and inspired our customers to develop on the cloud and build their businesses on our platform. As an early member of the engineering team, there are a few key memories that stand out from the earl

Exploring container security: Digging into Grafeas container image metadata Editor’s note: This is the third in a series of blog posts on container security at Google. The great thing about containers is how easy they are to create, modify and share. But that also raises the question of whether or not they're safe to deploy to production. One way to answer that is to track metadata about your cont

How to dynamically generate GCP IAM credentials with a new HashiCorp Vault secrets engine Applications often require secrets such as credentials at build- or run-time. These credentials are an assertion of a service’s or user’s identity that they can use to authenticate to other services. On Google Cloud Platform (GCP), you can manage services or temporary users using Cloud Identity and Access Man

Continuous delivery challenges at scale Canary analysis is a good way to reduce the risk associated with introducing new changes to end users in production. The basic idea is to route a small subset of production traffic, for example 1%, through a deployment that reflects the changes (the canary) and a newly deployed instance that has the same code and configuration as production (the baseline). T

Viewing Stackdriver Trace spans and request logs in multi-project deployments Google Cloud Platform (GCP) provides developers and operators with fine-grained billing and resource access management for separate applications through projects. But while isolating application services across projects is important for security and cost allocation, it can make debugging cross-service issues more difficu

Containers are increasingly being used to deploy applications, and with good reason, given their portability, simple scalability and lower management burden. However, the security of containerized applications is still not well understood. How does container security differ from that of traditional VMs? How can we use the features of container management platforms to improve security? This is the

The Kubernetes community today announced the release of Kubernetes 1.10, just a few weeks since it graduated from CNCF incubation. As a founding member of the CNCF and the primary authors of Kubernetes, Google continues to be the largest contributor to the project in this release, as well as reviewer of contributions and mentor to community members. At Google we believe growing a vibrant community

Distributed tracing, debugging, and profiling for your performance-sensitive applications Like all developers that care about their users, you’re probably obsessed with how your applications perform and how you can make them faster and more reliable. Monitoring and logging software like Stackdriver Monitoring and Logging provide a first line of defense, alerting you to potential infrastructure or
