Today is a great day for PagerDuty customers, practitioners, partners, and employees as we’ve entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Rundeck, a Californian start-up that’s a leader and innovator in DevOps automation. Before I get into the technicalities of what our solutions can do together, let me first set the scene on why we decided to do this, now.

There are a few ways to effectively configure HTTPs for an Nginx Docker Container. In this guide, we will quickly cover configuration through the use of free certificate authority Let’s Encrypt. For plenty of people, using Let’s Encrypt to configure HTTPS for an Nginx docker container is a good option. A paid version like Comodo’s SSL certificates may make more sense if you want to increase the security of your site and server.

I am thrilled to announce that we have raised a $1M pre-seed round with top notch investors. Among them are top entrepreneurs and Cloud experts like Alexis Lê-Quôc, co-founder and CTO at Datadog, and Sebastien Pahl, Co-founder of Docker. Qovery will use the funds to strengthen its research and development team and extend their offer to technology companies in Europe and in the US.

In this article, we will install an Etcd cluster and configure monitoring using Prometheus and Grafana, all with the help of Rancher. We’ll see how easy it is to accomplish this without the need of dependencies, as we can take full advantage of Rancher’s App Catalog.

As a vendor, understanding your bandwidth usage is an invaluable insight into how packages are distributed across your user base and how specific users have grown over a timeframe.

Microservices interact in so many ways. Load balancers, security authentication, and service discovery are just the tip of the iceberg. It can get confusing, if not outright messy. But why be messy when you can be meshy? This is where service meshes come into play, linking the roles these tools have in a common ‘net’ that ties and weaves the whole architecture together. Hashicorp has produced one of the most popular of these organizational assets — Consul Connect.

As more and more organisations dive into Azure, storage consumption continues to grow and so does the cost to businesses. Azure offers almost a limitless supply of storage, but this comes at a cost so it’s important to know exactly where that storage is going. There are a few ways to get this information, either via the Azure portal, Azure Storage Explorer or even PowerShell.
