In this step-by-step guide, we will configure HTPasswd authentication on an existing OpenShift 4.15+ single-node cluster. We’ll create user accounts, update the cluster’s OAuth settings to use HTPasswd, and verify access via both the CLI and the web console. We’ll also cover how to assign admin privileges to a new user and remove the default kubeadmin user for security.
READ MORERed Hat Advanced Cluster Management for Kubernetes (RHACM) is a powerful tool that lets you manage multiple OpenShift and Kubernetes clusters from one place. In this beginner-friendly guide, we will walk through installing RHACM version 2.4.x (or higher) on a bare metal OpenShift cluster using the OperatorHub, and then importing an existing cluster for management. The steps are straightforward and use the OpenShift web console for ease of use
READ MOREThis guide walks through setting up a local Kubernetes cluster, installing Kubeflow, and running an end-to-end ML pipeline (training and serving) with Kubeflow Pipelines and KServe. We’ll use a scikit-learn model example and show commands and sample outputs at each step. All commands are run on a Linux or macOS terminal unless noted otherwise.
READ MOREKeeping disk pressure under control is a day-to-day chore for cluster admins. Left unchecked, old container images, completed builds, logs and stray volumes will quietly eat through node storage and the internal registry PVC, eventually triggering pod evictions or broken pushes. This post walks through a layered strategy for reclaiming and preventing waste—starting with the integrated image registry and ending with node-level log rotation.
READ MOREArgo CD is an open-source GitOps continuous delivery tool for Kubernetes. In GitOps, all deployment manifests live in a Git repo as the source of truth. Argo CD continuously monitors the Git repo and the Kubernetes cluster, and automatically (or manually) syncs the live state to match the desired state in Git. It also provides a web-based UI to see “desired vs live” status of your applications. In this tutorial, we’ll install Argo CD on a local Minikube cluster, access the Argo CD web UI, and deploy a sample GitOps application (a simple NGINX example) from a public repository.
READ MOREDocker lets you “ship code faster, standardize application operations, [and] seamlessly move code” to different machines. Official docs also remind us that Docker Engine runs on 64-bit Ubuntu (22.04 LTS “Jammy” or newer), so the steps below apply to Ubuntu 22.04 and later.
