Ever had a gig where organizational inertia is so bad that even a production outage impacting thousands of customers is taking weeks to get resolved even when you provided the root cause including workaround and permanent fix?

I have a very risk adverse customer. Multiple times now, if they have a "break the system" bug, the customer will be pounding on the table to get the issue fixed, we will be up most of the night and spend 48 hrs pushing the vendor to create a custom patch. After 2 days of heavy lifting, we will present the patch to the customer, and the response will be, "ok great, we will tentatively schedule this for our monthly maintenance window 2 weeks from now, assuming it passes testing." I get it, but they have a full lab set up. Put it in the lab, make sure it is good, and go. I just didn't think as a STEM major my main skill set would be performative drama.

My experience at Morgan Stanley was like that. We would hound the vendor for patches then have to run them through our lab / ixia which took days/weeks because we had to test all of our switch & SFP models (including cross-vendor connections), then present those results to all of the other engineering/operations teams during an all hands, and if it was okay'd by the quorum it could be handed over to ops for scheduling. I understood the caution but it wasn't really the way I like to work. If one person had a valid reason to challenge your findings you had to go back to the lab, validate the concern, then wait the following week to present again.

After 6 months I feel comfortable and safe enough in my new role to push poo poo like that through on my say-so, with support from my leadership. That said I mostly deal with OT networks, and when they break it immediately affects a few hundred thousand people, so there's no time to gently caress around. For planned work we have a CAB meeting every Tuesday, and any trackside work has to be approved, but that's usually nearly instant

Anyone used Dell Boomi? What do you think? Tips/tricks (besides don't)?

# ? Jun 22, 2022 22:03 |

It wouldn't matter how good the product is, Dell gently caress up everything they touch if they're given enough time to do it. Edit: Oh, they're now owned by Franciso Partners who also bought SonicWall, which is somehow even worse than Dell.

Crossposting from the cert thread is anyone is looking to explore Azure: Microsoft Azure Virtual Training Day: Fundamentals is being held on July 13th and 14th this year. If you attend both sessions (around 2.5hrs each) then they will give you a voucher to take the AZ-900 Azure Fundamentals exam for free. Register here: https://mktoevents.com/Microsoft+Event/345065/157-GQE-382?wt.mc_id=AID3048148_QSG_598223 They are also doing one for the SC-200 but I don't know much about that exam.

I hate Boomi because it suffers from "Enterprise Tool Syndrome" where it can do everything but as a no-code tool that has to support everything it's just way too complicated. I think it's too complicated for a non-developer to use, and my experience (and this is shared by other developers in my org) is that it still has less capability than just writing some code, but because of the complexity in it, it's also harder than just writing some code.

https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2022/06/22/announcing-windows-11-insider-preview-build-25145/ Microsoft is integrating LAPS in windows 11, with some new features like "picking the password storage" and "password history". The storage picker is due to adding Azure AD support, which is currently gatekept to a handful of carefully chosen tenants.

Az cli is fine if you get the interactive mode, autocomplete is easy mode. It’s also IME impossible to avoid if you’re doing lots of AKS and container registry.

My only real Azure experience is with the networking side and it seems like a lot of it is rushed/beta software. Their solutions to the problems of their previous solutions, like vWAN, still have dumb annoying problems. And features like Application Security Groups could've been implemented way better. They just straight up don't work if you have multiple regions, which almost everyone will because they push you towards that in their design guides.i am a moron posted:If you use powershell on azure please figure your loving life out though I'm crying irl

I don’t even know why NSGs and ASGs exist you don’t need their ACLs slapped on top of software firewalls and regular firewalls and the other eight billion things that gently caress with traffic (actually I do that isn’t really true everywhere, they’re a total waste in enterprise land though imo). I deploy NSGs that allow everything so I can use traffic analytics though cause for some reason the only way to get good flow logs is via NSGs? Tshooting network stuff on azure sucks because the tools are bad and the networking piece is weird thanks for coming to my Ted talk

I like the part where you can't change your AKS node vm type without destroying the cluster in terraform, or use powershell to create a temporary system node pool, create the new right-sized node pool matching the terraform pool name, then delete the temp. Come on man Edit: Azure networking is weird when you need to troubleshoot, I shouldn't have to click so many times to get a route table. Still less fucky than GCP imo but at least it's easy to diagnose in GCP. Sepist fucked around with this message at 13:12 on Jun 23, 2022 |

Sending it to another region via vWAN costs like 6x the price of a global vNet peering. The lovely active/passive NVA deployment some garbo MSP did for them before I started wouldn't even be able to cope with all the traffic they'd be putting through it.

We have the concept of it in AWS and GCP via a custom solution based on Aviatrix, and it's more trouble than it's worth. We're looking at service mesh right now which will allow us to decomission our NVA topology thankfully.

Use app gateways screw old school firewalls Edit: if they’re using IIS I gotta assume these aren’t high traffic things (god help you if they are). You can use app gateways with multiple apps depending on your setup and ingress volume

There's also some non-http internet facing stuff that doesn't work with app proxy or application gateway. Don't really want to have three different ways of doing things, I'm trying to simplify. We also have thousands of people on Azure VPN so I need to do something about that too. It's not a lot going through IIS but it's just lovely off the shelf HR apps and other assorted garbage. I don't trust any of them.
