Discover the future of cloud and AI engineering with Codiac’s “Hands on Clouds” Workshops. Designed for AI and cloud engineers, as well as their teams, these hands-on sessions provide a high-impact learning experience, empowering you to build distributed systems and master Kubernetes—all on your laptop.

DevOps encompasses a wide range of cloud-native practices, from CICD to Kubernetes and container security, with countless strategies and tools to consider. This guide highlights four key initiatives to help organizations navigate and implement effective security best practices without overwhelm.

In all areas of engineering, whether itʼs DevOps, Platform, SRE, or development work, there will be a plethora of options in terms of what tools you have to choose from. In the cloud, itʼs no different.

As with any orchestration platform, there are several iterations of them between clouds, services, and managed providers. The typical “top threeˮ youʼll see are Azure Kubernetes Service (AKS), AWS Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS), and Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). The overall goal of each is to iterate workloads in an effective fashion.

In 2008, tech changed in the way that we thought about application stacks with the introduction of Linux Containers LX. It went from having to either have an entire server dedicated to one application or a Virtual Machine VM dedicated to one application stack to a portion of the Operating System being dedicated to an application stack.

Every service in the cloud or piece of cloud infrastructure we create is nothing more than an API call.Whether youʼre using Terraform, Pulumi, or an SDK, underneath the hood, youʼre making an API call to the particular set of APIs that make managing/creating services/infrastructure possible. The thing is, there are only a few ways many engineers feel comfortable using because theyʼre worried about “stateˮ, but they shouldn't be.In this blog post, you will learn about what state is, why itʼs important in todayʼs world, and why to stop caring about it.

Interesting conversations come up when chatting about vendor neutrality. The truth is, it’s really hard to find. For example, if you take an Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) provide, you write the code the same way between clouds, but you still have to use different providers/registries, resources, etc... there really isn’t a true “neutral” method. With Codiac, you get as close as possible. In this blog post, you’ll learn how to deploy clusters AWS with Codiac. The key here is to see the ease-of-use and the true neutrality within the process between cloud providers.

In this quick article, you’ll learn what you need as a prerequisite to use Codiac, where you can find the tools, and how to install/prepare them on your local computer.

Engineers live in a world where things are either complex or theyʼre promised ease of use, which results in more complexity. Tools and various pieces of software are marketed in a way that complicates more than it resolves. The goal with Codiac is to remove that notion and put engineers in the right direction (truly). In this blog post, youʼll learn about what Codiac is and how to dive into the SDLC journey with it today.

When is automation too much automation? When is abstraction too much abstraction? In the world of “making everything easier”, engineers constantly hear about “abstracting this” and “making that easier”. The truth is, making things easier and implementing abstraction doesn’t always mean implementing more efficiency. In this blog post, we’ll dive into the idea of environment automation, what an environment is, and how you can make your life easier from an efficiency perspective.
