This post is our third one sharing our real-world experience using Discord for more than one year. I think it is pretty interesting for any company interested to get the pros and cons of using Discord over Slack. At Qovery, we are a remote-first software company. When we decided to move out of Slack to Discord 13 months ago, we were only 3 developers on the team.

Arm processors have long been at the center of mobile computing, powering billions of smartphones, tablets, smartwatches, and other IoT devices. Today, these processors are beginning to see broader adoption in the cloud as they promise better performance, higher energy efficiency, and lower costs than their x86-based predecessors. Just this week, Oracle announced its new Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Ampere A1 Compute platform, built on the Ampere Altra Arm processor.

Five worthy reads is a regular column on five noteworthy items we’ve discovered while researching trending and timeless topics. Distributed cloud allows organizations to bring cloud computing closer to their location. This week we look at why it’s the future of cloud computing.

What are the differences between incident management and incident response? The answer varies widely depending on whom you ask.

It has been five months since we announced project Harvester, open source hyperconverged infrastructure (HCI) software built using Kubernetes. Since then, we’ve received a lot of feedback from the early adopters. This feedback has encouraged us and helped in shaping Harvester’s roadmap. Today, I am excited to announce the Harvester v0.2.0 release, along with the Beta availability of the project!

It’s official: regulations by the US and UK governments are coming down the track to secure the software supply chain.

ECS Anywhere allows you to use Amazon Web Services’ container service outside of the AWS cloud, and Canonical is proud to be a launch partner for this service. Using Ubuntu as the base OS for your ECS clusters on-prem or elsewhere will allow you to benefit from Ubuntu’s world-leading hardware support, professional services, and vast ecosystem, in turn allowing your ECS clusters to run with optimal performance everywhere you need it.

Amazon Elastic Container Service (ECS) is a managed compute platform for containers that was designed to be simple to configure, with opinionated defaults to help users get started quickly. ECS customers can run containerized workloads on either Amazon EC2 instances or the serverless Fargate platform without having to maintain a control plane—and can easily integrate ECS with other AWS resources, like Network Load Balancers, to architect their infrastructure.

In the face of unexpected crises or disruptions, maintaining business continuity has become more important than ever. Last year, businesses around the world had to shift to a remote workforce model overnight. Were their IT departments prepared for this massive shift?

Testing is vital because it helps you discover bugs before you release software, enabling you to deliver a high-quality product to your customers. Sometimes, though, tests are flaky and unreliable. Tests may be unreliable because of newly-written code or external factors. These flaky tests, also known as flappers, fail to produce accurate and consistent results. If your tests are flaky, they cannot help you find (and fix) all your bugs, which negatively impacts user experience.

With 50% of the US adult population vaccinated, there’s a lot to look forward to this summer, life no longer feels like it’s on hold, and we’re fully embracing that. Get your fire hoses ready, 'cause extinguishing incidents just got easier. We’re rolling out a summer full of new integrations, product releases, events, and more.

In 1946, a moth found its way to a relay of the Mark II computer in the Computation Laboratory where Grace Hopper was employed. Since that time, software engineers and operations specialists have been plagued by “bugs.” In the age of DevOps, we can catch many bugs before they escape into a production environment. Still, occasionally they do, and they can spawn all kinds of unexpected problems when they do.

Manufacturing is more important than ever as governments, businesses, and individuals rely on the industry to drive innovation and economic prosperity through employment and exports, producing both essential and non-essential products that enhance our daily lives.

With CircleCI, there are many different CI/CD flows that can be automated. One such flow is the use of Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) to build cloud environments. For example, you can use CircleCI to automate the process of building Terraform plans and applying them, in order to create massive production setups in AWS, Azure, GCP, and other cloud environments.

Beaker is a Puppet testing harness focused on acceptance testing via interactions between multiple (virtual) machines. It provides platform abstraction between different Systems Under Test (SUTs), and it can also be used as a virtual machine provisioner setting up machines, running any commands on those machines, and then exiting. Recently, Vox Pupuli, a collective of Puppet community authors, has taken over responsibility to care and feed Beaker for its continued widespread community use.

Argo Rollouts, part of the Argo project, recently released their 1.0 version. You can see the changelog and more details on the Github release page. If you are not familiar with Argo Rollouts, it is a Kubernetes Controller that deploys applications on your cluster. It replaces the default rolling-update strategy of Kubernetes with more advanced deployment methods such as blue/green and canary deployments.

Back in the days, the role of the CIO was relatively clear: the focus was on deploying, managing, and maintaining IT systems across the organization. The CIO’s responsibilities started to blur when end-users became more tech-savvy - around the millenium. Reasons were that ‘they can now get their own technology and don’t need IT to do it for them’. This even led to the much-repeated “death of the CIO meme”.

Without a strategy in place, it will introduce a handful of challenges. Platform teams will be unable to do the following: As you’re defining policies for multi-tenant AKS, EKS, or GKE clusters, consider these tips: To help you get started on the right track, we created this cheatsheet for multi-tenancy success.

When you’re feeling the stress and pain around incidents, making the decision to find an incident management tool is a no-brainer. But how do you choose the one that will work for you, your team, and your business? You might be asking yourself: Where do I start? What do I need to know? What questions do I ask? What are the options? How can I be sure we’re choosing the right tool?

Chatbots can be like double-edged swords. It can either boost your customer service or turn customers away. Hence, you must make sure that you research and prepare properly before committing to it. This way, you will know how to optimize and maintain your chatbots to ensure its effectiveness. There are many chatbot benefits for business. In fact, 78% of businesses have started integrating such technology into their customer service in the past months.

You’re called in. The system is misbehaving. It could be a key metric going crazy, or exceptions starting to fire. You’re troubleshooting, beating around the bush, just to realize that one of the team’s deployments was the one messing things up. Sounds familiar? If you’re practicing continuous deployment, you probably experience that several times a week, if not more. Users report that 50% of their outages are due to infrastructure and code changes, namely deployments.

Over 90% of Redfin’s metric data will be represented in Circonus’ log linear OpenHistograms, which will reduce their metric footprint by 50-60%. We’re pleased to announce today that Redfin, the technology-powered real estate brokerage, has selected Circonus to replace its existing metrics platform.

Since the revolutionization of the concept by Docker in 2013, containers have become a mainstay in application development. Their speed and resource efficiency make them ideal for a DevOps environment as they allow developers to run software faster and more reliably, no matter where it is deployed. With containerization, it’s possible to move and scale several applications across clouds and data centers. However, this scalability can eventually become an operational challenge.

Kubernetes — a popular open source container orchestration system — enables you to easily deploy, monitor, and scale cloud-native application workloads in both private and public cloud environments. In other words, Kubernetes does the hard work of managing containerized applications, giving you more time to spend building it.

Prometheus is a free and open-source software for real-time systems and event monitoring and alerting. Originally developed at SoundCloud, Prometheus became a project of the Cloud Native Computing Foundation in 2016, alongside other popular frameworks such as Kubernetes. To start using Prometheus, you’ll need a solid understanding of all of the tool’s functionality.

While Kubernetes is a very powerful and comprehensive application, it can also be very complicated and confusing to new users. Thankfully, the community is great at pulling together to try to tame the Kubernetes beasts, and as more users join the platform, more handy tools to help you manage your cluster are developed. Kubernetes Resources range from everyday helper tools to development tools to troubleshooting tools, and in this article we’ll discuss fifteen of the best ones.

AWS Lambda extensions enable you to seamlessly integrate third-party tooling with your Lambda environment so you can run custom code or monitoring agents alongside your functions. We’ve partnered with AWS to create a Lambda extension that offers a more cost-effective, simplified process for collecting data from your functions.

In October 2020 we released the community-driven roadmap for 2021. It's time to revisit and see all the things we have completed from the list! I am very proud to say that at Civo we have taken the community suggestions and implemented most of them during the launch on May 4th 2021. Let's dive into each of the features listed in the original blog post and see where we are with the 2021 Civo Roadmap.

HAProxy generates over a hundred metrics to give you a nearly real-time view of the state of your load balancers and the services they proxy, but to get the most from this data, you need a way to visualize it. InfluxData’s InfluxDB suite of applications takes the many discrete data points that make up HAProxy metrics and turns them into time-series data, which is then collected and graphed, giving you insight into the workings of your systems and services.

In a single, monolithic repository, also known as a monorepo, you keep all your application and microservice code in the same source code repository (usually Git). Typically, teams split the code of various app components into subfolders and use Git workflow for new features or bug fixes. This approach is natural for most applications or systems developed using a monolithic architecture. Code in such a monorepo typically has a single build pipeline that produces the application executable.

There are multiple phases in the software development process that need to be completed before the software can be released into production. Those phases, which are typically iterative, are part of what we call the software development life cycle, or SDLC. During this cycle, developers and software analysts also aim to satisfy nonfunctional requirements like reliability, maintainability, and performance.

Chia cryptocurrency is based on Proof Of Space, and distribute tokens according to a mechanism called plotting. In the last weeks, we've seen a lot of new accounts trying to launch and operate Chia miners from FlashDrive's infrastructure. Most of those accounts where created with fake/stolen credit cards for the sole purpose of getting Chia coins for free.

Datadog’s infrastructure list provides a central, high-level view of every host in your environment and pulls together metadata and relevant metrics from across Datadog to help you get the full picture of each one. You can easily filter and sort the list using any host tags, letting you quickly view the status of the parts of your infrastructure you need.

Incidents and outages caused by animals highlight the importance of flexibility and out-of-the-box thinking when it comes to SRE.

Setting and measuring latency Service Level Objectives (SLOs) is a critical responsibility for engineers monitoring the performance and health of their applications and systems. SLOs are an agreement on an acceptable level of availability and performance and are key to helping engineers properly balance risk and innovation.

This article will take you through setting up CI/CD integration for building, testing, and publishing libraries to Maven Central using Gradle. With jCenter shutting down, Maven Central is once again the primary destination for all Android and Java libraries. Library publishers will need to port their libraries over to Maven Central to keep their libraries available after jCenter shuts down. This article focuses on CI/CD integration.

The Atlanta Startup Podcast is the briefing room for the innovation ecosystem, featuring the investors, founders and activators creating the fastest emerging venture capital ecosystem in the country. Ken Ahrens, founder and CEO of Speedscale sits down with Valor Investor, William Leonard in this episode.

Nobody wants to deal with annoying neighbors. Whether it’s the neighbor who always knows everyone’s business or the one who turns up their music late at night, both types of neighbors can have a negative impact on your living environment and daily life. Obnoxious neighbors aren't exclusive to just your physical living space, but in the public cloud where there are multiple Kubernetes clusters (EKS, AKS, or GKE) and multiple users (or tenants) with the need for cluster access.

We’re happy to announce our integration with Google Meet to create incident bridges automatically. Using the power of FireHydrant Runbooks, a Google Meet can be added with fully customizable titles and agendas based on your incident details.

Dashboards are a crucial tool in your monitoring arsenal, as they allow you to visualize and correlate telemetry data from across your stack in a single place. Historically, Datadog offered two dashboard types: Screenboards, for pixel-level control on a canvas, and Timeboards, for troubleshooting a specific point in time. Now, we’re excited to introduce a new dashboard layout that combines the best of Timeboards and Screenboards in a single, seamless editing experience.

When Kubernetes launches and schedules workloads in your cluster, such as during an update or scaling event, you can expect to see short-lived spikes in the number of Pending pods. As long as your cluster has sufficient resources, Pending pods usually transition to Running status on their own as the Kubernetes scheduler assigns them to suitable nodes. However, in some scenarios, Pending pods will fail to get scheduled until you fix the underlying problem.

Datadog Notebooks simplify the way teams across an organization find and share knowledge. By bringing together live data and rich Markdown text, Notebooks help teams create powerful, data-driven documents—from runbooks and support playbooks to incident postmortems and data reports. And with collaboration functionalities like real-time editing and commenting, team members can simultaneously make changes to a document and gather feedback along the way.

Network Policy is a critical part of building a robust developer platform, but the learning curve to address complex real-world policies is not tiny. It is painful to get the YAML syntax right. There are many subtleties in the behavior of the network policy specification (e.g., default allow/deny, wildcarding, rules combination, etc.). Even an experienced Kubernetes YAML-wrangler can still easily tie their brain in knots working through an advanced network policy use case.

In this post we’ll explore the concepts of data lake, data hub and data lab. There are many opinions and interpretations of these concepts, and they are broadly comparable. In fact, many might say they’re synonymous and we’re just splitting hairs. But let’s look again carefully. We can discern some subtle trends in the way people are doing things, and find distinctions in these expressions.

Your users access your application from a wide range of browsers, which have their own implementations of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. For instance, many modern JavaScript features such as Promises and Arrow Functions are unsupported by some browsers. These inconsistencies can lead to missing elements and malfunctioning workflows that affect some—but not all—of your user base.

IT spending grew to an impressive $3.8 trillion in 2019. With 2020 giving enterprises a reality check on remote working, the spending on digital transformation is expected to grow even further. It goes without saying that IT is an integral part of any company, big or small. When the stakes are so high, there’s very little room for mistakes. However, we’re all humans and do make mistakes.

We have some exciting news for you about Puppet's support for the PowerShell DSC configuration framework for Windows. In short, content from the PowerShell Gallery will simply appear on the Puppet Forge and can be added to your Puppetfile and used just like any other Puppet module. This makes it by far the most flexible and maintainable iteration of DSC integration we've ever had. Pick and choose whatever DSC Resources you want and get all the VSCode IntelliSense magic you've come to expect.

If you’ve already connected your GitHub integration via OAuth in GitKraken, you’re good to go! GitHub is changing its security policy and will no longer allow username/password-only access. This change goes into effect on August 13th, 2021, and affects all desktop Git applications that offer a GitHub integration, including GitKraken. Users who have already authenticated to GitHub using OAuth will be unaffected. OAuth is the default connection method within your GitKraken profile settings.

The value of Mattermost is significantly enhanced with third-party tool integrations and customization. Today, we are releasing the developer preview of a new Apps Framework for creating application integrations and customized workflows. The Apps Framework complements the existing ecosystem of plugins and allows apps to be written in any language and deployed with serverless hosting.

At Cloudsmith, we believe that packaging should be at the centre of any modern build and deployment process. In fact, we think that Continuous Packaging is the glue that ties Continuous Integration and Continuous Deployment or Delivery together. So with that in mind, in this blog, we will take a walk through how easy it is to integrate Cloudsmith with a Semaphore CI workflow and push the artifacts and packages that you build to a private repository. TL:DR – It’s super easy.

Ubuntu 21.04 is the latest release of Ubuntu and comes at the mid-point between the most recent Long Term Supported (LTS) release of Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and the forthcoming 22.04 LTS release due in April 2022. This provides a good opportunity to take stock of some of the latest security features delivered in this release, on the road to 22.04 LTS. Ubuntu 21.04 brings with it a vast amount of improvements and features across a wide variety of packages.

Knowing how to deploy and run applications has become a key part of modern app development, meaning that developers need expertise in a number of areas beyond their core application code. Whether it’s container orchestration, networking, scaling, or load balancing, there is a steep learning curve to being able to deploy and run an application at scale.

Managed service providers (MSPs) are becoming increasingly important in the IT management industry. The role of an MSP does not just stop with monitoring, managing, and maintaining the IT services of their clients; it extends to keeping a close watch on everyday IT developments and proactively securing clients’ IT networks against cyberthreats. To balance all these responsibilities, MSPs need comprehensive IT management and monitoring solutions that can cater to all their needs.

To help users improve the efficiency and performance of their cloud environments, Ocean’s rightsizing capabilities provide recommendations that target over-provisioning and underutilization.

Serverless computing, a model in which the provider manages the server, lets developers focus on writing dedicated pieces of application logic. Serverless computing has been adopted by many development teams because it auto-scales. Auto-scaling relieves developers of allocation management tasks, so they do not need to worry about the allocation of server resources or being charged for resources they are not consuming.

Today’s world is a connected one. The technologies we have allow us to connect with people half a world away. Companies can work with people from different locations. Cloud technologies, for example, are helping people collaborate from afar.

As your DevOps and IT Service Management (ITSM) teams continue to increase, so should your ability to provide self-service infrastructure capabilities. Whether you are a ServiceNow or Puppet administrator looking to expand automation to other groups such as Site Reliability Engineering or the IT Service Desk, the integration of Puppet Enterprise and ServiceNow is now at your fingertips.

Prometheus is an open-source tool that’s meant to monitor and collect metrics from applications. The point of this system is to make it easy for users to see and understand important metrics that let them know how well an application is doing. In fact, Prometheus is able to collect over one million metrics per second, and then store them until you’re ready to retrieve them.

When you hear the word "Thanos," your first thought might be the Marvel Cinematic Universe villain from the Avengers: Infinity War film who seeks to collect the Infinity Stones and end half of all life in the universe. But if you mention the word to a data nerd, you're likely to get a very different response. Prometheus is a free and open-source platform for real-time systems and event monitoring and alerting.

Be aware that we’re not saying that you are in cloud nine, but that you may most likely be using the cloud. That is, if you use Google mail, Microsoft Office 365 office suite or you take a photo with your cell phone and then it gets automatically uploaded to iCloud or something similar, you are using the cloud.

Five worthy reads is a regular column on five noteworthy items we have discovered while researching trending and timeless topics. This week, we explore Anywhere Operations as a new business model.

The spring release of Puppet Enterprise is now available. Puppet continues to build out its flagship product to help organizations scale DevOps initiatives, meet compliance requirements, and deliver on cloud and hybrid initiatives. With this release, we’ve focused on delivering key enhancements to help boost productivity, giving organizations the ability to automate faster and more securely at scale.

Security is essential. It’s top of mind for organizations of all sizes and it’s certainly a top priority for Puppet. The latest release of Puppet Enterprise 2021.1 now offers support for SAML 2.0 providing a more secure and efficient authentication path for our customers to access their Puppet environments, applications and tooling.

How available is your website, service, or platform? What must you monitor and measure to ensure availability? How do you translate uptime into availability? This chart has numbers that every Site Reliability Engineer (SRE) should know. Below the chart, you will find answers to commonly asked questions about SRE and associated metrics.

In most cases, when users start to access and use a new application or a new release, app performs pretty well. As the user base grows and usage increases, the app can outgrow its infrastructure. Users can start experiencing a dip in performance. Latency increases, bandwidth and memory get exhausted quickly, and some code architectures start to fail because they do not scale well with the increased amount of users.

When I asked Charlie for permission to attend this year’s AICon (virtual, natch) I thought it would be a shoo-in; learning’s part of my OKRs after all. But he never makes things easy and his ‘yes’ came with a caveat that’s typical when dealing with him. This time, he claimed he didn’t have the budget for the ticket (a likely story!) and I’d have to find another way to get one.

That's a wrap! We hosted "WTF is Incident Management" on May 12, 2021. We invited four very knowledgeable panelists to discuss how they define incident management, what changes they'd make if they could start again from scratch, how to manage team stress after an incident, and other subjects. Our panelists were: host Matt Stratton (Staff Developer Advocate at Pulumi), Emily Ruppe (Incident Commander at Twilio), Alina Anderson (Sr.

It’s so easy these days to set-up your own WiFi network. You order a router online, plug it into the electrical socket, define a password and you’re good to go. WiFi is fast, reliable and easy to use. But if you want to cover a wider area or connect hundreds of small devices it quickly becomes inefficient and expensive. Is the only way to go to your local mobile network operator and sign a contract? No! Thanks to open source technology, you can build your own LTE or 5G network.

Containers and Kubernetes have changed the way we operate applications. This has been a boon for Site Reliability Engineers (SREs) and DevOps professionals who handle infrastructure management. Yet, it has come at a cost to many who develop and operate applications. Their experience has become more complicated and cumbersome.

Whether you’re new to the cloud native space or an accomplished practitioner, you’re probably aware that there are many Kubernetes distributions to choose from. Maybe you’ve heard about the challenges of getting up and running with Kubernetes. Guess what? It doesn’t have to be hard. This blog provides an introduction to K3s, a lightweight CNCF-certified Kubernetes distribution. We’ll look at what makes K3s different from other Kubernetes distributions.

Security has always been a wide and complex topic. A recent survey from StackRox about the state of containers and Kubernetes security provides some interesting data on these topics. In this blog post, I’ll dive into some of the findings in that survey and introduce you to Kubewarden, an open source policy engine. A staggering 66 percent of the survey participants do not feel confident enough in the security measures they have in place.

In the past year of covid related working from home, we are increasingly seeing more burnouts in engineering teams worldwide. More and more devs are partially checked out and may not be putting their 100% in team activities (planning, grooming, code review, quality checks). In these testing times, we have found some of the ways to keep your team motivated.

Introduced in 2008, Microsoft’s virtualization platform Hyper-V has become a well-known tool for administrators. Hyper V offers users with a wide range of management options. It includes GUI-based Hyper V tools such as Hyper V Manager, and command-line tools like Windows Powershell. Hyper V versions have been released ever since with Windows Server.

The Gradle Build Cache is designed to help you save time by reusing outputs produced by previous builds. It works by storing (locally or remotely) build outputs, and allowing builds to fetch these outputs from the cache when it determines that inputs have not changed. The build cache gives you the ability to avoid the redundant work and cost of regenerating time-consuming and expensive processes.

Your applications rely on third-party software running throughout your infrastructure, and it can be challenging to monitor each of these technologies individually. To give you the visibility you need, Datadog Live Processes now monitors all of your third-party workloads in one place.

The more tools that your teams need to execute their workflows, the more friction and lost productivity there can be, especially if each tool requires a different CLI or set of APIs. Retool is a low-code platform that allows you to build internal web applications using a drag-and-drop interface. By integrating with a number of key backend databases and APIs, Retool enables you to create custom, centralized management tools to serve a wide range of employee-facing use cases.

Service Level Objectives (SLOs) are a key component of any successful Site Reliability Engineering initiative. The question is, what are SLOs; and how do you determine what your SLOs should be? Once you've done that, how should you use them?

In software development, processing and storing data in different states reflects the business rules an application is built on. The heart and soul of any software application is the data that is persisted in databases for retrieval and further processing. The database system (SQL or Non-SQL) chosen for an application must serve the required data processing and storage needs of the application.

The container ecosystem is moving very fast and new tools designed specifically for Kubernetes clusters are introduced at a very fast pace. Even though several times a new tool is simply implementing a well-known mechanism (already present in the VM world) with a focus on containers, every once in a while we see tools that are designed from scratch rather than adapting a preexisting idea. One such tool is Komodor.

We recently announced the development of our new dashboard builder and associated release of several new turnkey service dashboards. The new dashboard builder provides a vastly improved user experience, enabling users to create dashboards in a fraction of the time it took them previously. As of this month, the dashboard builder, which was previously only accessible internally, is now available to all Circonus customers.

HAProxy 2.4 adds exciting features such as support for HTTP/2 WebSockets, authorization and routing of MQTT and FIX (Financial Information Exchange) protocol messages, DNS resolution over TCP, server timeouts that you can change on the fly, dynamic SSL certificate storage for client certificates sent to backend servers, and an improved cache; it adds a built-in OpenTracing integration, new Prometheus metrics, and circuit breaking improvements.

The question I am regularly asked is, “What use is OTN, when services are all IP, and routers handle connectivity directly across optical fiber connections, or wavelengths on optical fiber (IPoWDM)?”

Artificial intelligence is transforming software development. From the code to the deployment, AI is slowly but surely upping its game and helping us discover a brand new paradigm for inventing technology. Algorithm-based machine learning is being used to accelerate the software development lifecycle and AI is supporting developers to optimize software workflow at every stage of the development process.

With this integration, VMware Tanzu Mission Control now supports full lifecycle management—provisioning, upgrading, scaling, and deleting—of Tanzu Kubernetes clusters deployed on VMware Cloud on AWS.

Many industries have taken up Augmented Reality (AR) serious in order to increase production, sales and customer education. Organizations today are making use of several AR applications for multiple purposes to grab the attention of users. Surveys have predicted a vast growth in the AR VR markets in the near future as much money has been induced into the field. The application of AR technology is establishing a firm hold over the pharmaceutical industry as well.
