Ah local DNS. Something I want to use for a project.

100%. Adds so much awesomeness!

🚀✨ Blown away by the AKS announcements at #KubeConIndia in Hyderabad!

Major shoutout to the AKS MCP Server, I can't wait to test it.

Loving the Azure Bastion integration which means no more jump boxes to access private AKS clusters.

Deployment safeguards are now GA 🎉

🚀 Spent the weekend exploring GitHub Spark and ended up building this little app:
🔍 Azure AKS Documentation Tracker
📄 It highlights meaningful updates to the AKS docs (no more digging through commits).

Would love your thoughts. Is this helpful? Feedback welcome!

Troubleshooting Kubernetes is hard when you don’t know where to start.

So I’m starting a new series with real-world tips to help you think like a troubleshooter, no fluff, just what to check, what to run, and how to join the dots.

First tip drops soon.

#Kubernetes #DevOps

Catching up on AKS release notes and found a shiny new preview: cost optimised add-on scaling

VPA now trims CoreDNS, Workload Identity, Image Integrity, Retina and more, or lets you set the CPU / memory diet yourself. I took it for a spin, with setup tips and troubleshooting fun! 👇

Been cooking up some KubeBuddy magic tonight! ✨

Here’s a sneak peek at the per-node overview: Prometheus powers the hero metrics & charts, while KubeData fills in the node details.

The charts are fully interactive—click to expand! 📊

Still a WIP, aiming for the next release.

Don't get caught out when node pools hit their max limits.

I just published a full guide to dynamically alert when any AKS node pool reaches maxCount using ARG + KQL.

Oh I have not yet. I have changed from az cli login to API login with an sp for docker. So that method might work in code spaces.

Just making so sourdough bread with the help of my Helm tea towel.
