Nothing! Glad to find this, I think the current version works for me with the default config. It covers the basics, and a GUI is better for observability when you need to debug in production imo. Thanks for the tip!
The alternative, that I know of, would be Argo events, but be prepared to invest a lot of time to make it do what robusta does. I would suggest raising an issue instead. Robusta folks might be able to do it fast
@@DevOpsToolkit already wrote to their git :) and waiting for multi arch build. Today I found also BotKube and I just dropped it to argo cd 5 min ago with slack connection enabled, and it works for arm64. Confirmed the connection. Seems to be doing the same thing, except the nice UI.
@@vladoportos I, unfortunately, did not try that combination. What I can say is that the Robusta team fixed the issues I reported relatively fast. That does not necessarily mean that they will have arm64 builds soon, but only that my limited experience with issues was very positive.
Hi! Great tutorials as always, can you please make a video on botkube? which in my personal opinion is far better & simple solution as compare to Robusta, your thoughts please? thanks a lot.
Viktor, I don't like the fact that they upload information to their servers from my workload. Is it possible to disable this or better, use a self hosted solution?
I used a combination of Robusta SaaS for the UI and agent running in my cluster. I'm not sure whether there is an option to have it fully self-hosted. Let me check and get back to you...
Hey, it's Natan from Robusta. Just choose to disable the UI when you install. In addition to that there is some anonymized data we send about usage. There are instructions printed at the end of the helm install for how to disable that as well. The only thing you'll be missing is the UI but everything works fine without it.
Another major con of Robusta in my opinion is that the web UI is hosted/managed by Robusta itself, you can't deploy it in cluster. That makes me think it might be part of a paid plan later on and not fully open source.
That's a common strategy. Almost all open source projects are backed by companies that invests in them and want something in return. Having dedicated people costs $$$. That something can be license fees for enterprise features, SaaS, etc. In my case, the major question is always whether a company manages to balance OSS with commercial offerings. Flux, for example, does not have (or did not have the last time I checked) a GUI because that was reserved for WeaveWorks enterprise customers. Argo CD, on the other hand, does have it, but that's mostly because Intuit did not have that type of interest in it. What I'm trying to say is that there is hardly no successful OSS project that does not have a dedicated team and people in such teams are employed by companies that want something in return for the investment. It's almost always like that and I don't see anything wrong in Robusta following the same model. It's not doing that today, but it will. Sooner or later, every company needs an ROI.
What are you using to receive notifications from Kubernetes events?

Great as always - Hopefully they update it to better support custom CRDs. Otherwise it looks fantastic
pretty cool, havent heard of robusta before
As always thank you
I did learn new stuff from your channel
Thanks for the amazing contents! Keep it up man xD
Great tool. Thanks Viktor!
23:15 Rocket Chat is awesome self-hosted slack clone. We use it for a few years now and quite happy with it. It can receive slack notifications.
I did not know about it. I'll try it out ASAP.
Great videos 🥳
Hello, is there any updated version of this video tutorial? I mean whether Robusta has taken care of all the mentioned missing features??
I haven't done a new video about it. It did change a lot since then though.
Any idea about alternative for Robusta ? Robusta is not supporting ARM64 yet :(

Just to confirm... Are you referring to arch servers or client (laptop)?

Also, we do have an on-prem version of the UI in closed beta now. So speak to us on Slack if you're interested in that.

Hi Victor, can you please compare it to botkube?
Adding it to my TODO list...
@@DevOpsToolkit love to see your opinion ❤
@@gmkrtchyan It's coming. I cannot say when (my TODO list grows faster than I can handle), but it is definitely coming.
