Spider has recently been setup to observe Mobile Payment Platform of Flowbird.
It brought its set of surprises and 'not managed' cases, leading to improvements in parsing :)

But new users really like it!!!

On Kubernetes first month, Spider had two downtimes because the polling queues got filled with tens of thousands of items, and no alert got raised.

Since Spider moved to the Kube, I needed to fix some of the monitoring dashboards to work on Kubernetes.

Here are the changes:

The first training brought many improvements ideas.

A few of them have been implemented straight:

Kubernetes brings autoscaling, and it's magic!

During the month of January, Spider setup has been extended to deploy the full solution on Kubernetes!

Spider now resolves Kubernetes PODs IP addresses with Kube API.

Spider now extracts identification from X509 certificates while parsing.

Spider now requires a license to run!

Spider Docker images have been upgraded to distroless and obfuscated images!
