About Fairwinds Insights
Protect and optimize your mission-critical Kubernetes applications. Fairwinds Insights is a Kubernetes configuration validation platform that proactively monitors your Kubernetes and container configurations and recommends improvements. The software combines trusted open source tools, toolchain integrations, and SRE expertise based on hundreds of successful Kubernetes deployments. Balancing the velocity of engineering with the reactionary pace of security can result in messy Kubernetes configurations and unnecessary risk. Trial-and-error efforts to adjust CPU and memory settings eats into engineering time and can result in over-provisioning data center capacity or cloud compute. Traditional monitoring tools are critical, but don’t provide everything needed to proactively identify changes to maintain reliable Kubernetes workloads.

Sonrai Security
Identity and Data Protection for AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and Kubernetes. Sonrai’s public cloud security platform provides a complete risk model of all identity and data relationships, including activity and movement across cloud accounts, cloud providers, and 3rd party data stores.

Telepresence
Telepresence streamlines your local development process, enabling immediate feedback. You can launch your local environment on your laptop, equipped with your preferred tools, while Telepresence seamlessly connects them to the microservices and test databases they rely on. It simplifies and expedites collaborative development, debugging, and testing within Kubernetes environments by establishing a seamless connection between your local machine and shared remote Kubernetes clusters.
Why Telepresence:
Faster feedback loops: Spend less time building, containerizing, and deploying code. Get immediate feedback on code changes by running your service in the cloud from your local machine.
Shift testing left: Create a remote-to-local debugging experience. Catch bugs pre-production without the configuration headache of remote debugging.
Deliver better, faster user experience: Get new features and applications into the hands of users faster and more frequently.
