In this episode of the Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, hosts Ronald Kers (CNCF Ambassador) and Jan Stomphorst (Senior Solutions Architect bij ACC ICT) sit down with Carl Moberg, an expert in network automation and co-founder of an innovative edge orchestration platform. Carl shares his extensive experience in automation and orchestration, highlighting why Kubernetes, despite its strengths, is not always the best solution for edge computing.Carl describes how edge computing environments, such as retail stores, manufacturing plants, and mining operations, face unique challenges. Unlike the cloud, edge deployments require systems that are lightweight, resilient, and able to operate offline. These environments often run on constrained hardware with little room for the complexity that Kubernetes introduces.Why Kubernetes Isn't Always the Right ChoiceCarl explains that while Kubernetes excels in the cloud, it struggles at the edge due to:Resource Constraints: Kubernetes assumes ample compute, memory, and network resources, which edge locations lack.Operational Overhead: Supporting components like registries, policy engines, and logging tools make Kubernetes impractical across thousands of edge nodes.Resilience Needs: At the edge, workloads must run uninterrupted, even when internet connectivity is lost—something Kubernetes' centralized architecture complicates.Instead of Kubernetes, Carl and his team developed a 150MB lightweight agent that runs on Docker or Podman. This solution provides core features like:Dynamic Application Placement: Applications are deployed based on criteria like hardware capabilities (e.g., GPUs), location, or attached devices (e.g., cameras).Resilient Offline Operations: Local registries, automated updates, and failover mechanisms ensure continuity during outages.Simplified Management: By abstracting orchestration complexity, the platform avoids Kubernetes' resource and setup overhead.Reference:Kubernetes: The Documentary [PART 1]Kubernetes: The Documentary [PART 2]Aflevering 26: Managing 3000 nodes on the Edge | De Nederlandse Kubernetes PodcastStuur ons een bericht.ACC ICT Specialist in IT-CONTINUÏTEIT Bedrijfskritische applicaties én data veilig beschikbaar, onafhankelijk van derden, altijd en overalLike and subscribe!

Episode 51 - A Lot of Little ThingsKyle and Gilbert talk about, uh, a lot of little things.Show NotesGilbert's 4TB SSDs. Note: Gilbert is noticing some cache-based throttling during very large file transfers, dropping speeds in RAID0 from 1.3GB/s to 600MB/s. This is disappointing (even 1.3GB/s is disappointing in a way -- it should be closer to 2GB/s), but won't always be a factor. Plus, the RAID0 speed still exceeds that of typical external SSDs. However, if you're using a single drive (a config that doesn't benefit from the RAID0 multiplier), and you're frequently transferring large collections of files (>200GB), you might see performance as low as 150MB/s. This is just as bad as a good quality "fast" spinning disk.Some good tracks to test your speakers or headphones.Gilbert's HomePod mini Twitter thread.Gilbert's M1 MacBook Air Twitter thread.Unauthorized FCPXSony FX6Canon C70Best of Five: The Classic Tetris ChampionsCheck out Sharky.Chris Higgins on Piece Dependency Podcast (YouTube).
