Exploring Apps within the Ubuntu Snap Store – Part 17
Today, as usual, at the beginning of each month, we offer you a new publication more from our series of articles (Part 17) about “software available in the Ubuntu Snap Store (USS)”. Which has hundreds of useful, interesting and modern applications.
And on this occasion, we will briefly introduce 3 more apps from the Development category, whose names are: Canonical Kubernetes (K8s), Termius and Bcc. In order to keep them informed and up to date, with this robust and growing set of applications that is available within the USS Online Software Store.

But, before starting this post on part 17 of the “Ubuntu Snap Store” apps, we recommend you explore the previous related content of this seriesWhen you finish reading it:
Snap packages are a special type of app packages for the desktop, cloud and IoT, which are characterized by being easy to install, secure, cross-platform and dependency-free; they are also a universal package format developed by Canonical (Ubuntu). Meanwhile, the Snap Store is, in essence, an online software store, in the style of the existing GNOME and KDE Community stores, in order to publicize each of the available apps and how to install them.

Canonical Kubernetes (K8s)
Canonical Kubernetes It is the fastest and easiest way to deploy a fully supported Kubernetes cluster. This distribution (software development), also known as K8s, leverages pure, upstream Kubernetes and adds the missing components for a zero-ops experience. For this reason, it is considered a complete and stable Kubernetes distribution that is high-performance, lightweight, secure, and built with the best feedback from the community, so it includes everything you need to create and manage a scalable cluster suitable for all use cases. In addition, it provides all the essential additional services, such as a container runtime environment, a CNI, DNS services, a Gateway, and more, that are necessary to have a fully functioning cluster, all in one convenient location, and in an instant.

termius
termius Termius is a very efficient and elegant SSH client and terminal that allows users to connect to any computer or device with a single tap from any mobile or desktop device, without having to repeatedly enter IP addresses, ports, or passwords. And all this because Termius reinvents the command line experience, allowing remote access for IT professionals such as administrators and engineers to be a more productive and enjoyable experience. However, despite being a paid (commercial) tool, it offers a free plan (Termius Starter) that allows users to connect from any mobile or desktop device with SSH, Mosh, Telnet, port forwarding, and SFTP. In addition, it allows working in multiple sessions simultaneously with a multi-tab and split-view interface, customization of terminal themes and fonts for each connection, among much more, and without any ads.

Bcc
Bcc is a set of tools for creating efficient Linux kernel sniffing and manipulation programs, and includes several useful tools and examples. It uses extended BPF (Berkeley Packet Filters), formally known as eBPF, a new feature first added in Linux 3.15. An important detail to note is that much of what BCC uses requires Linux 4.1 and later. For this and more, BCC is considered to facilitate writing BPF programs, with kernel instrumentation in C (and includes a C wrapper for LLVM) and front ends in Python and Lua. As a result, it is ideal for a variety of tasks, such as performance analysis and network traffic monitoring.
