We are debugging one issue with memory usage in Kubernetes Pods, and decided to look at the memory and number of processes on the nodes. The problem is that a Kubernetes Pod with Livekit usually consumes about 2 gigabytes of memory, but sometimes there are spikes of up to 10-11 gigabytes, which causes the Pod… Read More »
Let’s continue our journey with AWS OpenSearch Service. What we have is a small AWS OpenSearch Service cluster with three data nodes, used as a vector store for AWS Bedrock Knowledge Bases. Previous parts: AWS: Introduction to OpenSearch Service as a vector store AWS: Creating an OpenSearch Service cluster and configuring authentication and authorization Terraform:… Read More »
In the first part, we covered the basics of AWS OpenSearch Service in general and the types of instances for Data Nodes – AWS: Getting Started with OpenSearch Service as a Vector Store. In the second part, we covered access, AWS: Creating an OpenSearch Service Cluster and Configuring Authentication and Authorization. Now let’s write Terraform… Read More »
We are currently using AWS OpenSearch Service as a vector store for our RAG with AWS Bedrock Knowledge Base. We will talk more about RAG and Bedrock another time, but today let’s take a look at AWS OpenSearch Service. The task is to migrate our AWS OpenSearch Service Serverless to Managed, primarily due to (surprise)… Read More »
In the previous part, AWS: Getting Started with OpenSearch Service as a Vector Store, we looked at AWS OpenSearch Service in general, figured out how data is organized in it, what shards and nodes are, and what types of instances we actually need for data nodes. The next step is to create a cluster and… Read More »

We have a VictoriaLogs Helm chart with a PVC size of 30 GB, which is no longer enough for us, and we need to increase it. But the problem is that .spec.volumeClaimTemplates[*].spec.resources.requests.storage in STS is immutable, that is, we can’t just change the size through values.yaml file, because it will lead to the error“Forbidden: updates… Read More »
I actually started to write about creating my own Kubernetes Operator, but decided to make a separate topic about what a Kubernetes CustomResourceDefinition is, and how creating a CRD works at the level of the Kubernetes API and the etcd. That is, to start with how Kubernetes actually works with resources, and what happens when… Read More »
Perhaps everyone has used operators in Kubernetes, for example, PostgreSQL operator, VictoriaMetrics Operator. But what’s going on under the hood? How and to what are CustomResourceDefinition (CRD) applied, and what is an “operator”? And finally, what is the difference between a Kubernetes Operator and a Kubernetes Controller? In the previous part – Kubernetes: Kubernetes APIs,… Read More »
