Kubernetes & Docker Exit Code 143: Meaning, Causes, and Debugging Guide
When you see exit code 143 and your container stops, the instinct is to assume something broke. In most cases, the container received a shutdown signal and exited on its own. What matters is whether your application handled that signal correctly. In production, how your application handles that shutdown determines whether users see dropped requests,…

Monitor Logs from Amazon EKS on Fargate with Middleware
Amazon EKS on Fargate is a fully serverless Kubernetes environment, with no EC2 nodes to manage, no DaemonSets and no host filesystem access. That architecture simplifies operations but breaks traditional observability tools that rely on node-level agents. This guide shows you how to monitor EKS Fargate workloads using Middleware. You will configure log routing via…
