Monitoring energy usage with smart plugs Prometheus and Grafana
https://ounapuu.ee/posts/2024/05/02/smartplugs/
This post isn’t a detailed line-by-line tutorial on how to set up each individual piece of the setup as those types of guides tend to get out of date really easily, but if you know your way around Linux and the command line, then you can definitely replicate this setup on your own.
Over the past few years I’ve been interested in learning about how much energy my computing setup and home appliances use. I’ve used a simple digital energy meter before to get instantaneous readings, but that was not ideal for monitoring how an electrical appliance consumes power over a longer time period.

Evolving Kubernetes networking with the Gateway API | Kubernetes
https://kubernetes.io/blog/2021/04/22/evolving-kubernetes-networking-with-the-gateway-api/
The Ingress resource is one of the many Kubernetes success stories. It created a diverse ecosystem of Ingress controllers which were used across hundreds of thousands of clusters in a standardized and consistent way. This standardization helped users adopt Kubernetes. However, five years after the creation of Ingress, there are signs of fragmentation into different but strikingly similar CRDs and overloaded annotations. The same portability that made Ingress pervasive also limited its future.
