Comparing AWS S3 with Cloudflare R2: Price, Performance and User Experience
In September 2021, Cloudflare took the tech world by storm by announcing R2: a storage service accessible through the ubiquitous S3 API but that didn't charge any egress ("bandwidth") fees.

Why Kubernetes isn't using Docker's libnetwork
Kubernetes has had a very basic form of network plugins since before version 1.0 was released — around the same time as Docker's libnetwork and Container Network Model (CNM) was introduced. Unlike libnetwork, the Kubernetes plugin system still retains its "alpha" designation. Now that Docker's network plugin support…
