Jan 1, 2025January 2025 (Month: 2025-01) focus: reliability and networking for kube-burner/kube-burner-ocp. Delivered two impactful changes with traceable commits, driving higher stability and performance for rds-core workloads. Key outcomes: - Virtual Functions networking for best-effort pods in rds-core: added network annotations to the deployment server config to utilize specific network interfaces for best-effort pods, improving network isolation and throughput for cost-effective workloads. Commit: 75f4ba236e1fbadb2932ca6d1b75c1c961c1734d - Increased vmi-ready-threshold timeout from 20s to 25s: extended readiness window to reduce premature readiness failures during deployment and scale events. Commit: 587a47489802115c75b8dcb173442291045b2659 Overall impact: - Improved deployment reliability and predictability, reducing flaky startups and readiness-related rollbacks. - Clear traceability with commit-level references for audit and performance review. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - Kubernetes networking annotations, VF (Virtual Function) integration for pods - VMIs readiness tuning and deployment reliability - Change traceability and impact assessment across a single repository
