Automating Pod Disruption Budgets with Kyverno, with Ahmad Asmar
Q: What's next for Ahmad in your career?
Ahmad plans to focus on AI infrastructure leveraging Kubernetes, including GPU nodes and platforms like Kubeflow, continuing to treat Kubernetes as a platform for broader workloads beyond microservices.
Automating Pod Disruption Budgets with Kyverno, with Ahmad Asmar
Q: How did you approach automating pod disruption budgets and handle the risk of downtime when consolidating nodes?
The team used Kyverno to automatically generate PDBs based on labels and replica counts, with checks to avoid duplicates and a default behavior that only scales budgets when replicas are above a minimum, plus a backstop for single-replica services.
Automating Pod Disruption Budgets with Kyverno, with Ahmad Asmar
Q: For people who don't know you, can you tell us a bit about what you do and where you work?
Ahmad introduces himself as a Senior DevOps Engineer at Zencity (via Asal Technologies), with a six-year background in DevOps and Kubernetes, emphasizing his focus on cloud-native infrastructure and automation across multiple AWS accounts and EKS clusters.
Automating Pod Disruption Budgets with Kyverno, with Ahmad Asmar
Q: At the beginning, what are the three emerging Kubernetes tools you're keeping an eye on?
Ahmad highlights Kyverno, Crossplane, and Karpenter as the top tools, with Istio Ambient Mesh also mentioned as an important addition for service mesh strategy.
1 Million Tokens Per Second on Kubernetes, with Federico Iezzi
Q: What was the core constraint that limited throughput besides hardware?
Memory bandwidth and memory capacity were the primary bottlenecks, more so than raw compute, especially when reading 27GB of data per output token for a 27B model.
