Currently, this newsletter is sent out approximately twice a month:
- The "mid-of-month" issue is dedicated to practical container tools, tips, and tricks (CTTT).
- The "end-of-month" issue provides a round-up of all things around my learning & teaching journey.
My writings cover a range of topics including Containers, Kubernetes, and other Cloud Native stuff. I also delve into the underlying technologies such as Linux and Networking. Occasionally, I may share my thoughts on Programming or sneak in some insights on labs.iximiuz.com - an online playground platform that I'm building to help you master the server-side craft. So, there are plenty of reasons to stay tuned, I hope 😉
Still hesitant? Check out the previous issues - I'm proud of every one of them!

How to grasp Containers and Docker (Mega Thread)
— Ivan Velichko (@iximiuz) August 7, 2021
When I started using containers back in 2015, I thought they were tiny virtual machines with a subsecond startup time.
It was easy to follow tutorials from the Internet on how to put your Python or Node.js app into a container...
Have you ever been confused while reading Kubernetes API docs?
— Ivan Velichko (@iximiuz) January 23, 2021
Wondering what are these:
- API groups
- Resources
- Namespaces
- API objects
- CRDs
- Aggregation layers
...and what are their relationships?
