Introduction: What is Workload Identity Federation? Workload Identity Federation (WIF) allows workloads running in Google Cloud (e.g., GKE pods) to securely access AWS resources (like S3) without storing static AWS credentials. Instead of using long-lived access keys, GCP workloads exchange Google identity tokens for temporary AWS credentials via AWS STS (Security Token Service) Use Case […]| ITGix
At PrestoCon Day 2025, Uber presented their innovative solution for optimizing petabyte-scale data analytics by deploying a distributed cache using Alluxio for Presto. Their journey was driven by significant challenges during a massive cloud migration, including read slowness and overwhelming HDFS clusters on-premises, and later high GCS egress costs and file access charges in the...

Lately, I've been interested in how third party vendors can best authenticateinto their customers' cloud accounts. The status quo in AWS is usually role assumptionfrom the vendor's account to the customers', but what about GCP and Azure? CanOIDC be used to authenticate into all three clouds in approximately the same way?I think the answer is yes, and this blog post aims to show how to do so.| Aidan Steele's blog (usually about AWS)
Running a full-blown 24/7 running service is sometimes not a good fit for a feature. Serverless functions (also known as Lambdas or Cloud functions) is an alternative for those single-purpose kind of features. The major cloud providers have their own flavors of Serverless, and Cloud Functions is the one on Google Cloud Platform (GCP).| Agile & Coding
When you're running 1000+ microservices across Southeast Asia's most complex transport and delivery platform, 'good enough' stops being good enough.

gcloud-sdk At the time of this writing, there is no official Google Cloud library for rust. Google started working on google-cloud-rust, but it’s still under development. The most popular alternative seems to be gcloud-sdk, so that’s what we’ll be using. This SDK uses tonic to build the gRPC clients, so a little familiarity with tonic, might be helpful. Since we are going to focus on the Storage API, we need to add this dependency to our Cargo.toml file: 1 gcloud-sdk = { version = "0.27...| ncona.com

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) has evolved beyond simple automation into a fundamental shift toward applying software engineering practices to infrastructure management. In 2025, leading organizations aren’t just provisioning infrastructure—they’re treating it as software, complete with testing, version control, code reviews, and continuous integration. As infrastructure complexity grows, teams increasingly seek approaches that provide the same developer productivity tools they use for ap...| Pulumi Blog

Cloud-Native Secret Management: OIDC in K8s Explained External Secrets is the de-facto choice for secrets management in Kubernetes clusters. It simplifies the task of the administrator(s) of the cluster, ensuring only the secrets that are explicitly defined are present and accessible. It comes with many great features but most important than all is its integration with major cloud providers. In this blog post you will learn how to deploy it without hard-coded credentials and using only the po...| Developer Friendly Blog

In this article, we will briefly explore a feature called "Workload Identity Federation for GKE" that was recently announced by GKE in their official blog. Features Overview Workload Identity Federation for GKE is an improved version of the original GKE Workload Identity feature. The main improvement is that it needs less configuration and offers better user experience. How to Use Follow these steps to try this feature: Create a GKE cluster with Workload Identity Federation for GKE enabled. Y...| mozillazg's Blog
Many companies face the challenge of efficiently processing large datasets for analytics. Using an operational database for such purposes can lead to performance issues or, in extreme cases, system failures. This highlights the need to transfer data from operational databases to data warehouses. This approach allows heavy analytical queries without overburdening transactional systems and supports shorter retention periods in production databases.| blog.allegro.tech
