How to Scale Kubernetes Without etcd Sharding
Rethinking Kubernetes scale: avoid the risks of etcd sharding with virtual clusters built for performance, stability, and multi-tenant environments.
Is your Kubernetes cluster slowing down under load? etcd doesn’t scale well with multi-tenancy or 30k+ objects. This blog shows how virtual clusters offer an easier, safer way to isolate tenants and scale your control plane, no sharding required.
Scaling Kubernetes Without the Pain of etcd Sharding
Why sharding etcd doesn’t scale, and how virtual clusters eliminate control plane bottlenecks in large Kubernetes environments.
OpenAI’s outage revealed what happens when etcd breaks at scale. This post explains why sharding isn’t enough, and how vCluster offloads API load with virtual control planes. Benchmark included.
Bare Metal Kubernetes with GPU: Challenges and Multi-Tenancy Solutions
Why Namespace Isolation Falls Short for GPU Workloads, and How Multi-Tenancy with vCluster Solves It
Managing AI workloads on bare metal Kubernetes with GPUs presents unique challenges, from weak namespace isolation to underutilized resources and operational overhead. This blog explores the pitfalls of namespace-based multi-tenancy, why running a separate cluster per team is expensive, and how vCluster enables secure, efficient, and autonomous GPU sharing for AI teams.
WebAssembly on Kubernetes
Like a couple of innovative technologies, different people have different viewpoints on where WebAssembly fits the technology landscape. > WebAssembly (also called Wasm) is certainly the subject of much hype right now. But what is it? Is it the JavaScript Killer? Is it a new prog...
