The Iron Rose posted:How do yall handle caching authentication tokens between multiple pods/processes/etc? Current practice is to just toss a 5min TTL JWT into the cluster local redis so the authentication service doesn’t get swamped with requests. I'd probably renegotiate your auth system with your vendor or fix the rate limit You can store the token as a Kubernetes secret, then use reflector to push the "secret" across the cluster, and reloader to verify the pod gets reloaded when the secret changes? I dunno how fast or scalable that is compared to redis, but that gives you a pure Kubernetes solution, at least in theory Edit: at 30k pods you're probably going to bring etcd to it's knees, making your cluster really grim performance wise, don't do this This is a great interview question Hadlock fucked around with this message at 22:19 on Apr 23, 2024 |

Didn't IBMs buyout of Red Hat not work out that well? Maybe people will go back to using Azure Bicep

Does anyone have a link/resource about why Broadcom is such a widely vilified company? The only thing I know them for is like mobile chips or the like. Did they do something specific with a software company that I’m not aware of?

Yeah the MO seems to be acquiring companies that have become indispensable to operations and then jacking up the prices to an insane degree because they know they have customers over a barrel. Which on the one hand,  but on the other hand sure does piss everyone off.

They have a history of not providing open source drivers for their hardware, particularly the binary blob needed to boot the raspberry pi* (which boots via it's GPU for some reason) broadcom was always a real dick about their Linux driver support. I remember spending countless nights working with USB sticks to get Linux laptops online because distros couldn't/wouldn't include broadcom drivers *This may have finally changed, haven't checked in a while

Developers want better visibility into their build and deploy process (of course, for good reason) most of this happens either in GitHub actions, or ArgoCD I've identified, I think, 13 distinct build and deploy tasks across the front and back end for our monolith, touching a bunch of services across multiple vendors (GitHub, AWS, cloudflare, code analysis tools etc) How do you add visibility into this at your place, what kind of pattern I'm thinking of two slack channels, one "short" channel with the high level green or red light for the overall deploy, so maximum two kinds of alerts, and a "verbose" channel that includes all 13 slack messages, that have a link to the query in the logging where the problem can be better inspected

We did some napkin math and our vmware licensing cost is likely going to at least triple (likely more) next year when it's time to renew, so now we're scrambling to find an alternative. We're using NSX so if we want to keep that we're stuck with the expensive licensing options. poo poo sucks. I was hoping to do some interesting stuff this year, not spend it rebuilding what we already have just because some useless fuckwits want their third solid gold yacht.

Same at my place. Seven digit renewal costs scared few people so a bunch of teams were scrambling to get a good alternative (easy) in time before renewal (hard)

Apropos of nothing, I saw Ray Ozzie mentioned in an article tonight and it reminded me that I used to be best friends with his kid when I was like kindergarten age. Really wish my parents had kept up that relationship! "CTO of Microsoft", "creator of Lotus Notes", and "board of directors for HP" would have been useful as a job reference here and there

Hiya, I'm setting up a little vanity web server on my own hardware (a lower-end mini PC). Separately from this I have my development machine. I'm trying to put together my own little cutesy ci/cd workflow but need some (a lot) of guidance. I'm comfortable with git but not much beyond that. (1) One approach would be to simply install Python (using FastAPI + uvicorn here), git, and just run the code. - This basically gets me all the way there, but I'd still be manually using git to pull any changes -- automating this would be nice! - Keeping the two Python environments the same could require some manual tinkering. (2) Install Docker and run it as a docker image.. - This is interesting in that I don't have to install anything (other than Docker) - The deployment process is even more vague to me. If I build the image on my dev machine, how do I get it onto the server? - Part of the site uses a local database -- would this have to be in the image, or can it stay outside (i.e., can code running inside access outside, local files)? - Performance. I'm a bit concerned how this might run on my low-spec hardware. I'm on a bit of a learning journey here. Hope this isn't too simplistic a question!

I'm trying to put together my own little cutesy ci/cd workflow but need some (a lot) of guidance. I'm comfortable with git but not much beyond that. Generally, you have somewhere to host your artifacts. This might be something like Docker Hub, GitHub, or GitLab's container registries. You build somewhere, you push to a central location. Then you have your deployment target initiate an image pull from that repository and launch the container. You can use something like Ansible to initiate that image pull and container creation over an SSH connection without needing to install any agents or other dependencies on the server. You can run a database service in a container too, but you generally don't want this to be in the same container as your app. You want one container for each service, one container for your database, and you want to network them together. (It will be fast, like connecting to localhost over TCP, because in a single-host configuration your traffic will never leave the host.) And make sure you mount a data volume into your DB container, otherwise you'll be deleting all your data every time you restart the database! Performance hit from Docker should be really negligible, if your host is already running Linux. If you're running Docker Desktop under Windows or macOS on the mini PC you're using as a deployment target, things get a lot more complicated for you.

Vulture Culture posted:Welcome to a cool journey! I'm comfortable with git, so I'm currently using github with a client-side GUI (Fork) for doing this. Also I've used github actions at work before, but I wasn't involved in setting those up so not sure if that functionality would help here? Will definitely look into Ansible.

And make sure you mount a data volume into your DB container, otherwise you'll be deleting all your data every time you restart the database! Okay, that's helpful. I think for now I'll just see what I can do with accessing the (external) db from within the container, without the network aspect. Its a read-only affair anyway.

Hah, I'm running Windows at the moment though I'm planning to switch to Linux eventually.
