Ruckstack v0.8.0 Released
The focus for the 0.8.0 release was simplifying system management.
The goal of Ruckstack is to make running Kubernetes easier than running your application on its own. Yes, there is always kubectl and all it’s power, but 90% of your system management should be done through simpler system-control commands.
With 0.8.0, we’ve added the first 3 of these:
Status
The status command is your first stop when understanding the status of the system.
Are any servers down? Run system-control status nodes
Nodes in Example Project Cluster
----------------------------------------------------
app1 (10.8.8.65): Healthy
Primary node
Are any services down? Run system-control status services
Services in Example Project
----------------------------------------------------
