Kubernetes, Beyond the Hype with Jon Hildebrand - Gestalt IT
Kubernetes is said to be the go-to tool for all of IT. In this Gestalt IT Tech Talk, host Stephen Foskett and delegate Jon Hildebrand strike at the heart of this myth. Kubernetes is a stellar orchestration and management platform for containerized applications. It brings to offer a host of automation capabilities that are essential for many organizations. But before diving headfirst into it, it is important to take a moment to appreciate where it’s true value lies, and what things it cannot do. Watch the Tech Talk to know how Kubernetes can enhance application management processes, and why it is not the magic remedy people think it to be.

Meet Jon Hildebrand, Senior Product Architect at 11:11 Systems - Gestalt IT
In this Gestalt IT Tech Talk, Stephen Foskett sits with John Hildebrand to discuss the prevalent misconceptions surrounding Kubernetes and its role in solving all IT problems. He emphasizes that Kubernetes is essentially an orchestrator, providing a pluggable infrastructure for managing containerized environments. Hildebrand cautions against the assumption that virtualization equals containerization, highlighting the need for proper application refactoring to achieve true cloud-native capabilities. Despite acknowledging Kubernetes' widespread adoption and momentum, he underscores the importance of learning the technology correctly and dispels the notion that containerization alone makes an application cloud-native.

The Importance of a Web Application Firewall with Fortinet - Gestalt IT
In this Cloud Field Day article presented by Fortinet, Jeffrey Powers discusses the importance of Web Application Firewalls. The bottom line is, we need to protect our web apps. A Web Application Firewall is key to doing that. And having a robust set of tools to identify and report problems, and at the same time, predict and prevent them makes any admin’s job easier. So the next time a new web app is deployed for anything - drones, deliveries, notifications, payments, and more - it’s nice to know that there is a system that will make sure it’s secure.
