🔹 Kubernetes - Enhancing Kubernetes Event Management with Custom Aggregation

The blog post discusses the challenges of managing Kubernetes events in large clusters and proposes building a custom event aggregation system to address these issues. Key challenges include high event volume, limited retention, lack of correlation, and absence of standardized classifications. The proposed solution involves creating an event watcher to monitor Kubernetes events, an event processor to categorize and correlate events, and a storage backend for long-term retention. This system can significantly improve troubleshooting efficiency by identifying patterns and correlations among events, reducing the time spent on debugging. The post also suggests best practices for resource efficiency, scalability, and reliability, and highlights advanced features such as pattern detection and real-time alerts. Future enhancements could include machine learning for anomaly detection and integration with observability platforms. 👉 Read more

🔹 Java - Interconnecting Java and Native Code with the FFM API

The blog post discusses the Foreign Function & Memory Access API (FFM API) introduced in Java SE 22, which enhances the integration between Java applications and native libraries. The FFM API achieves this in three ways: by providing a comprehensive API to model off-heap memory as a memory segment, by offering an API to describe and link native functions, and by simplifying native library access through the jextract tool, which generates necessary FFM API artifacts. The post highlights the fundamental principles of FFM and demonstrates Java’s integration with native graphic libraries and AI frameworks. 👉 Read more
