DKP 2.6 Features New AI Navigator to Bridge the Kubernetes Skills Gap

The latest release of the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) represents yet another significant boost to DKP’s multi-cloud and multi-cluster management capabilities. D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP) 2.6 features the new DKP AI Navigator, an AI assistant that enables DevOps to more easily manage Kubernetes environments.  

As Forbes noted in Addressing the Kubernetes Skills Gap, “The Kubernetes skills shortage is impacting companies across sectors.” 

AI Navigator can help enterprise organizations overcome the Kubernetes skills gap by giving Kubernetes DevOps teams expert advice at their fingertips. Further easing Kubernetes management are enhancements to DKP Insights, an automated troubleshooting tool that can identify problems and provide recommendations to resolve the issues.  

Unique Data Set Delivers Unique Value

Being trained on D2iQ’s expert knowledge base is the key differentiator that gives DKP AI Navigator its unique value. Unlike AI apps like ChatGPT, which draw data from the public Internet, DKP AI Navigator uses the data housed in D2iQ’s internal knowledge base. This enables organizations to harness more than a decade of D2iQ’s experience and expertise in managing large container-based deployments.

DKP AI Navigator is integrated directly into the D2iQ Kubernetes Platform (DKP), giving users the ability to manage Kubernetes fleets via a single pane of glass. The net effect is like having an expert co-pilot at your side to help solve problems as they arise.  

Solving Multi-Cluster Complexity Through Deeper Insights 

DKP 2.6 includes an enhanced DKP Insights version (currently in technology preview) that gives customers self-service troubleshooting capability. With this update, enterprises and public sector organizations can obtain a Cluster Insight Report on issues related to the health of clusters and vulnerabilities in the installed containers. This gives organizations reassurance on the health of their clusters and peace of mind knowing that any potential issues will be identified quickly, along with recommended remediation steps. 

Additional DKP 2.6 enhancements include: 

Overcome the Skills Gap with Instant Platform Engineering

Many enterprises have encountered project delays, says Forbes, “because operationalizing Kubernetes with the right level of automation and governance requires time and a healthy influx of experienced engineers.”

DKP helps organizations overcome the skills gap by providing instant platform engineering that features state-of-the-art automation, centralized multi-cloud and multi-cluster management, and intelligent assistants. Rather than wrestling with complex Kubernetes infrastructure, DKP 2.6 provides a production-ready platform to enable teams to devote their energies to higher-value business activities.

Next-Gen Defense: Unleashing the Power of Kubernetes

If you are involved in a U.S. military modernization project, you won't want to miss our upcoming webinar: "Next-Gen Defense: Unleashing the Power of Kubernetes for AI/ML and Cybersecurity Modernization."

The U.S. Department of Defense’s Software Modernization Strategy calls for gaining a competitive advantage to achieve strategic and tactical superiority. Leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and implementing zero trust security are critical parts of the movement to modernize the U.S. military. 

To this end, U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense Kathleen H. Hicks issued a memorandum in February 2022 establishing the formation of the DoD Chief Digital and Artificial Intelligence Officer (CDAO). 

The U.S. government’s next-generation security strategy calls for achieving zero trust capability by the end of Fiscal Year 2024. The strategy has been updated, most recently in a National Cybersecurity Strategy document released in March 2023.  

Although obtaining zero trust and AI capability are DoD goals, achieving these goals requires the right technology approach and skill set. In our upcoming webinar, entitled "Next-Gen Defense: Unleashing the Power of Kubernetes for AI/ML and Cybersecurity Modernization," Kubernetes experts will provide insights and best practices to help your organization succeed in achieving these capabilities. 

Key topics that will be covered include:
