“What we’ve seen over the past few decades in Thailand is how the development of a domestic consumer culture tied to an aspirational middle class in Thailand has created spaces—most of which are subcultural spaces—within which Thai men and women as well as those who don’t identify with those cisgender categories have been able to draw upon consumer culture and media culture as a site to integrate themselves into Thai society and emphasize their existence. But up until the mid-2000s, it was often the case that these Thai queer communities were engaging with Western media texts and Western media discourses and consumer culture in order to exert their existence. What happens from the mid-2000s onwards is that as Thai consumer culture, particularly youth culture and the upwardly-mobile aspirational patterns of this youth middle-class culture, becomes increasingly embedded within an inter-Asian media ecosystem within which the media of Japan and later South Korea becomes the marker of taste, we see young people shifting away from Western LGBTQ or queer media and discourses and shifting their focuses onto East Asian media culture. The research that I am doing on the role of Boys Love media in Thailand, which is a transnational Asian media culture that’s born out of Japan, is part and parcel of this shift. What I’m hoping to do with this case-study of Boys Love media in Thailand is contribute to the broader focus that is emerging in Thai cultural studies of charting this shift away from “West” as the dominant other in Thai society to think pluralistically about how these negotiations occur at the intersections of Thai local knowledge, Western media circuits, and East Asian media circuits.”

2. GitOps with ArgoCD

Use ArgoCD to implement GitOps workflows, ensuring continuous delivery with declarative configurations. This enhances traceability and allows seamless rollbacks in case of failures.

Networking & Service Mesh

1. OpenShift Service Mesh for Microservices

OpenShift Service Mesh, based on Istio, provides traffic management, observability, and security for microservices. Implement circuit breakers, rate limiting, and traffic mirroring to enhance reliability.

2. Ingress Controllers & Load Balancing

Optimize external access using HAProxy-based OpenShift Router or third-party ingress controllers like NGINX or Traefik. Ensure proper DNS configuration and load balancing for high availability.

Common Challenges & How to Overcome Them

1. Configuration Drift

Use GitOps methodologies with ArgoCD to maintain consistency across environments and prevent manual misconfigurations.

2. Performance Bottlenecks

Monitor resource utilization with Prometheus & Grafana and implement proactive autoscaling strategies.

3. Compliance & Governance

Use OpenShift Compliance Operator to enforce industry standards like CIS Benchmarks and NIST guidelines across clusters.

Final Thoughts & Future Trends

Optimizing OpenShift for enterprise-scale deployments requires a balance of performance, security, and automation. As hybrid cloud adoption grows, OpenShift’s capabilities in multi-cloud and edge computing environments will continue to expand.
