Review on StackRox by Nathan Akers

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Reliable, flexible and affordable container management

I have been working as an admin for stack rox since it was called nopipe (now k8sops). It has helped me keep my production infra up & running smoothly over many years now - even when we've had issues such that our network vendor would no longer support certain versions of linux distros or docker containers etc! This tool also allows you very fine grained control how your infrastructure runs within Docker using PodSpec files which really gives some useful flexibility here compared other solutions out there like Envoy Proxy where things were pretty rigid by default if i'm not mistaken? Not much dislike about this product but maybe having too easy access could be better managed somehow so people don't go wild abusing privileges while playing around? We use Kube2Pitstop mainly because its cheap solution vs others who charge quite high prices per seat/month.

Pros
  • I like the simplicity you can scale up your infra while having complete control of the network between nodes and the containers hosted on them
Cons
  • I have found a few limitations with the way things work and have to do some workarounds and the UI not really the best ever for some reason
