Recently, our container platforms team made our “Private Managed Registry” service generally available. In this blog post, we will explain why OVHcloud chose to base this service on the Harbor project, built a Kubernetes operator for it, and open sourced it under the CNCF goharbor project.

Today, we’ll start with one of the most frequent questions I got during the early days of the beta: How do I route external traffic into my Kubernetes service? The question came up a lot as our customers began to explore Kubernetes, and when I tried to answer it, I realised that part of the problem was the sheer number of possible answers, and the concepts needed to understand them.
This week, the OVH Integration and Continuous Deployment team was invited to the DataBuzzWord podcast. Together, we explored the topic of continuous deployment in the context of machine learning and big data. We also discussed continuous deployment for environments like Kubernetes, Docker, OpenStack and VMware VSphere. If you missed it, or would like to review everything that was discussed, you
