What is a causal inference?
Overview Causality is the relationship between a cause and effect. In distributed systems, ordering of events is challenging, as timestamps across nodes cannot be compared. This is where causality is useful in the distributed system. Causality and the happens-before relationship Let’s define an event as something happening at one node. This something can be either sending or receiving … Continue reading What is a causal inference?
How to use a liveness probe for applications on Kubernetes?
What is a liveness probe? Liveness probes are used by the kubelet (kubernetes agent) to identify when to restart a container. The kubelet can identify a pod crash and restart the pod in such an event. However, at times, it may happen that the pod is alive but the application is in a state where … Continue reading How to use a liveness probe for applications on Kubernetes?
