How does Lightcast define a skill?
AWS Fargate

AWS Fargate is a serverless compute engine for containers that works with both Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS). This skill involves managing, configuring, and deploying containerized applications without having to manage the underlying infrastructure. Proficiency in AWS Fargate includes understanding its integration with other AWS services, optimizing resource utilization, and implementing cost-effective solutions. It also requires knowledge of container orchestration, security best practices, and troubleshooting techniques.

Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) refers to a managed service for deploying, running, and scaling containerized applications in Google Cloud. It is used to automate cluster setup, resource management, and application updates in software delivery and operations. In professional settings, it supports consistent application deployment, workload monitoring, and infrastructure control across development and production environments.

Istio refers to a service mesh technology used to manage communication between services in distributed applications. It provides traffic control, security, and observability capabilities that support reliable service to service interactions. In work settings, it is used to configure routing, enforce access policies, and monitor service behavior across cloud native environments.

Kubernetes is an open-source container orchestration platform that automates the deployment, scaling, and management of containerized applications. It provides a highly scalable and flexible way to manage and deploy applications in a cloud-native environment. With Kubernetes, developers can easily manage complex distributed systems and ensure that their applications are highly available and reliable. Kubernetes is widely used in cloud-native application development, and is considered a critical skill for DevOps professionals and cloud architects.

Observability refers to the ability to monitor, understand, and diagnose the internal state of a system from its external outputs. It involves the use of tools and practices to collect, analyze, and visualize data from software applications and infrastructure. Key aspects include log management, performance metrics, tracing, and anomaly detection. This skill is crucial in DevOps, Site Reliability Engineering (SRE), and software development roles for ensuring system reliability, performance optimization, and issue resolution.
