Mar 1, 2025March 2025 – Net Observability Operator: Focused on release engineering and pipeline reliability. Delivered deployment pipeline and image versioning updates to ensure current component versions are deployed together. Specifically, Tekton pipeline now tags the latest Konflux bundle as 'latest' and container image digests are refreshed to align operator, eBPF agent, flowlogs, and console plugin with current Konflux releases. This reduces deployment drift, speeds safe rollouts, and improves release traceability. No major bugs fixed this month; business value delivered through improved consistency, stability, and maintainability. Technologies demonstrated: Tekton CI/CD, image digest management, Konflux bundle integration.
