OPEN SOURCING THE KNOWLEDGE OF ADOPTING KUBERNETES

Ambassador supports organizations adopting Kubernetes. Despite its overwhelming popularity, many of the core principles of adopting Kubernetes are poorly documented, scattered in many different places, and tribal knowledge. Kubernetes and cloud-native is a huge shift in how software is built and shipped. We want to give architects, SREs, infrastructure engineers, and other pathfinders leading the way into this brave new world a set of waypoints.


Importantly, we’re not looking to supplant excellent tutorials such as Kubernetes The Hard Way. We’re working with experts who’ve done this before to share their hard-earned knowledge. We will be adding to these guides regularly, so if you’re interested, sign up for email updates from us when we publish new guides.

Email us at hello@datawire.io if there are any topics that you’ve encountered that you’d like for us to cover.
