In the realm of text editors, Neovim stands out for its extensibility, especially for developers working with Kubernetes. The telescope-crossplane.nvim extension bridges the gap between Neovim's editing capabilities and Kubernetes resource management. This tutorial outlines the prerequisites, installation, and setup processes for integrating telescope-crossplane.nvim into Neovim, providing an efficient way to manage Kubernetes resources.

Introduction

In this blog, we will look at the evolution of software infrastructure; provisioning, delivery and maintenance.

If you are interested in modern DevOps and SRE practices, this article is for you.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is a common pattern where virtualized infrastructure and auxiliary services can be managed using configuration expressed in almost any language, usually hosted in a source code repository.

Every once in a while software industry is shaped by significant events called Paradigm Shift. Here are a few such events that made Infrastructure as Code what it is today:

Introduction​

Docker introduced containers technology as mainstream around 2013. Since then, containerization became an integral part of the cloud and digital transformations. Nowadays most of the traditional server workloads such as web APIs, web apps (broadly speaking server side workloads), are containerized. Heck, even Microsoft saw the writing on the wall and since 2016 windows containers are also there (albeit a bit on the heavy side). 2017 saw the introduction of Kubernetes, a container orchestration, which even more cemented already strong position of containers as compute workhorses.
