Link: IBM Brings Kubernetes Service To Bare Metal

‘By extending its managed service to dedicated servers, IBM can deliver Kubernetes in a form that fits any organization’s cloud strategy, he said, such as building a cloud-native machine learning app, processing large workloads or migrating apps that ingest large amounts of data. “This gives developers greater control over where their workloads reside and enables them to isolate workloads to specific servers,” McGee said.’ Original source: IBM Brings Kubernetes Service To Bare Metal

Link: Fintech Has Grown Up

“Fintech has lost its direct-to-consumer ambition. Previous editions of Finovate have seen presentations by now established brands like Fidor Bank, eToro, Kabbage, rPlan, and Scalable Capital. Most of these startups have since shifted their business model from just direct to customers – consumers or businesses – to some form of B2B2C, working with incumbents as their distribution partners. That’s because despite all the claims about incumbents neglecting their customers’ needs, customer acquisition in financial services remains hard and expensive.

Link: Aqua Extends Container Security Platform to Kubernetes, Cloud Services

“With Aqua 3.0, users can create fine-grained user access control roles and policies. Access to kubectl commands can be specified to particular users, and governed by Aqua’s scalable labeling format. The Kubernetes controls also provides the ability to block unapproved images from running across entire cluster, as well as the ability to control network traffic based on Kubernetes namespaces, clusters or deployments.” Plus, some policy drift report making. Done with a sidecar.

Link: Web inventor wants regulation of web

“What’s more, the fact that power is concentrated among so few companies has made it possible to weaponise the web at scale. In recent years, we’ve seen conspiracy theories trend on social media platforms, fake Twitter and Facebook accounts stoke social tensions, external actors interfere in elections, and criminals steal troves of personal data. We’ve looked to the platforms themselves for answers. Companies are aware of the problems and are making efforts to fix them — with each change they make affecting millions of people.
