Winning the Hybrid Cloud

Alex Soto

Stop letting cumbersome VPNs and skyrocketing costs ruin your hybrid deployment. Discover how combining Skupper and Knative creates a highly resilient, serverless multi-cloud mesh.

#1 about 2 min

Understanding the open hybrid cloud architecture model

How hybrid cloud environments seamlessly connect public, private, and on-premises infrastructure to avoid reliance on a single provider.

#2 about 3 min

Defining the core principles of open hybrid clouds

The key benefits of open hybrid clouds include operational consistency, deployment flexibility, vendor independence, and structural risk reduction.

#3 about 2 min

Evaluating the business advantages of hybrid cloud architectures

Distributed cloud systems ensure disaster recovery failovers, minimize latency for remote clients, and uphold strict data sovereignty requirements.

#4 about 3 min

Connecting Kubernetes clusters across clouds using Skupper proxies

Skupper provides secure layer-7 inter-cluster communications without requiring specialized virtual private networks or complex firewall routing rules.

#5 about 4 min

Rerouting traffic dynamically during backend failures with Skupper

In a multi-cluster configuration, Skupper proxies automatically redirect frontend traffic to secondary availability zones when primary backend nodes fail.

#6 about 4 min

Configuring and managing Skupper router latency deployments

Skupper routers can be configured to execute latency-based traffic routing while fully integrating with declarative GitOps deployment workflows.

#7 about 2 min

Reducing cloud compute costs through Knative serverless scaling

Knative serverless architectures enable teams to scale idle workloads directly to zero, aggressively minimizing costs for secondary failover clusters.

#8 about 6 min

Configuring Knative deployments to automatically scale under load

A Knative service can track incoming network requests to immediately provision additional application instances or aggressively terminate unused pods.

#9 about 2 min

Integrating Knative and Skupper for multi-cloud efficiency

Combining serverless scaling with intelligent cross-cluster routing dramatically optimizes compute expenditures while completely preserving highly resilient application architectures.

#10 about 3 min

Synchronizing stateful application databases across multiple cloud providers

Synchronized databases like CockroachDB preserve critical application state across disparate cloud boundaries to prevent data loss during catastrophic regional outages.
