AVFC, Messaging, Strimzi, Kafka, AMQP, Kubernetes, AnCap Libertarian ... all tweets are my own ...
I saw the future at #KubeCon in Atlanta ... but now it is time to head back to the open-air museum EU 🙄 ...

Czech Republic: one of the #DataOnKubernetes superpowers. At least judging by the #DoKDay at #KubeCon speaker line-up. Right now, David Pech is talking about "a Postgres journey from DIY to autopilot self-service".

On my way to #KubeCon ... See you in Atlanta! 🤞

If you are curious about what is coming in #Strimzi 0.49.0, want to learn more about the #Strimzi v1 CRD API, and the plans for our 1.0.0 release, I prepared a few short videos to give you a preview of what to expect ...

Well, at least thanks to the IBM mess, I can celebrate my 8 years at Red Hat today! 🎉

Stuck in Frankfurt for a few hours due to flight delays. But at least the view provides some kind of compensation ... 😉

Crossing the Forth Road Bridge on foot was with my fear of heights an interesting mental 🤯 challenge ... but I made it! 🎉

From the sky-high mountain-tops to the bottom of the lake ... and back!

This week: Playing with vertical autoscaling of #Strimzi and #ApacheKafka with #Kubernetes in-place updates to pod resources.

Next week: Talking about horizontal autoscaling of #Strimzi and #ApacheKafka at #Current25

"Disobey - their power comes from our obedience" (Chila Kumari Singh Burman / Imperial War Museum North, Manchester) ... applies to so many things!

Strimzi is in demand today 😍 ... 5 new LinkedIn jobs mentioning it among skills or responsibilities!

I have no idea how to share the search link to LinkedIn ... but if you are interested, I'm sure you will be able to find it ... 😉

One KubeCon talk a day keeps your AI replacement away! 😉 Luckily, the @cncf.io YouTube channel has plenty of them: www.youtube.com/@cncf/playli...

Flight number LH1111 ... that is probably the best flight number I have ever been on 😀.

Next ... taking the late evening LH1402 to Prague from an almost empty Frankfurt airport ... that brings up a lot of old memories ...

If you don't have the all-access pass or don't have time on Tuesday afternoon, I will also do a short lightning talk about #Strimzi that is part of #KubeCon itself: sched.co/1aNIp ... see you in Paris!
March 11, 2024 at 10:33 PM
One week until #KubeCon! I will be there to speak about #Strimzi and ZooKeeper-less #ApacheKafka at the #DoKDay on Tuesday 19th March: sched.co/1YFk0
March 11, 2024 at 10:33 PM
1500 merged PRs in the #Strimzi Operators repository! 🎉 Shame the 1500th PR was a bit anticlimactic - no nice new feature, just a mundane release task. 🙄
October 13, 2023 at 1:09 PM
Next month I will be speaking at the #DOKDay at #KubeCon about making your #ApacheKafka cluster production-ready: sched.co/1Rj5w ... hope to see you there!

Now this is the kind of summer I love! 😍

In the third blog post in my series about Kafka Node Pools, we look at the advantages node pools bring to storage management and pod scheduling. Read more on the #Strimzi blog: strimzi.io/blog/2023/08...

Updated my home cluster to #Kubernetes 1.28 => Done my usual smoke test with #Strimzi => And everything works as expected without any problems 🤷‍♂️ 🎉

With Kafka Node Pools, you can have control over the broker IDs that will be used in your #ApacheKafka cluster. Read more about how to define which IDs should be used during scale-up or scale-down in a new #Strimzi blog post: strimzi.io/blog/2023/08...
