Deepak Goel Director of Engineering at Nutanix discusses the challenges of resource allocation in Kubernetes.

He explains why determining initial CPU and memory requirements is difficult since applications have dynamic resource needs that change with load. The solution lies in two key automation tools: Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA), which creates additional pods to handle the increased load, and Vertical Pod Autoscaler (VPA), which automatically adjusts CPU and memory resources based on actual usage patterns.

James Wilson, VP of Engineering & Product Development Leader at nOps, explains a systematic approach to reducing Kubernetes costs.

While the ideal scenario starts with optimizing at the container level followed by infrastructure utilization, James recommends prioritizing based on impact. For most organizations, he suggests focusing on quick wins like moving workloads to Spot instances rather than attempting lower-level architectural changes. The key is to make optimization a continuous process and always start with visibility into your infrastructure.

@miamorecadenza shares their journey in building a "compute as a faucet" home lab where infrastructure becomes invisible and tasks can be executed without manual intervention.

You will learn:

- How to evaluate operating systems for your home lab — from Rocky Linux to Talos Linux, and why minimal, immutable operating systems are gaining traction.
- How to implement a three-tier storage strategy combining Longhorn (replicated storage), NFS (bulk storage), and S3 (cloud storage) to handle different workload requirements.
- How to secure your home lab with certificate-based authentication, WireGuard VPN, and proper DNS configuration while protecting your home IP address.

1. Practices for running stateful applications in Kubernetes have matured significantly
2. Percona has developed Kubernetes operators for all their supported databases
3. Large customers are successfully running serious workloads in Kubernetes

Peter emphasizes the importance of proper configuration to prevent data loss, as Kubernetes can be unpredictable in handling pods if not set up correctly. This insight highlights the evolution of Kubernetes from its early days to its current capability to handle both stateless and stateful applications effectively.

Why Kubernetes doesn't rebalance pods in nodes?

Learnk8s runs a 4-day Advanced Kubernetes course next week in London 🇬🇧, and you will get to the bottom of questions like this (spoiler: the scheduler allocates pods when created, and it doesn't re-evaluate decisions).
You will also learn the nitty-gritty details of the Kubernetes architecture:

- How pods can serve traffic even if the control plane is unavailable.
- Why does Kubernetes run a single controller manager and scheduler even in HA?
- Why does the kubelet prefer to poll for updates rather than the master dispatching events?

This (and much more) is covered on the second day of the course.

Why can't you ping a Kubernetes service?

Learnk8s runs a 4-day Advanced Kubernetes course on Sep 30, and you will get to the bottom of questions like this (spoiler: services only exist in etcd).
You will also learn the nitty-gritty details of Kubernetes networking:

- How to plan and design a cluster network.
- How do the four Kubernetes services extend each other, and what do you gain from each?
- How CoreDNS, Ingress, and kube-proxy consume the Kubernetes currency: endpoints.

This (and much more) is covered on the third day of the course.

You can find the full agenda, a breakdown of the modules and how to sign up here: https://kube.events/t/06d19f85-4645-42f7-87c5-040888900b9d
