Today we will install Ruby on Rails (RoR) on a Debian Linux operating system (Ubuntu 18.04 LTS). With that said, RoR is compatible with other operating systems with just a few tweaks. This blog will assist you in installing RoR with a simple step-by-step process. Your installation may differ, for other operating systems refer to this site. I am new to developing and have been using Ubuntu 18.04 LTS, a flavor of Debian Linux, for my projects.

In this series, we’ve introduced key HashiCorp Vault metrics and logs to watch, and looked at some ways to retrieve that information with built-in monitoring tools. Vault is made up of many moving parts, including the core, secrets engine, and audit devices. To get a full picture of Vault health and performance, it’s important to track all these components, along with the resources they consume from their underlying infrastructure.

In Part 1, we looked at the key metrics for monitoring the health and performance of your HashiCorp Vault deployment. We also discussed how Vault server and audit logs can give you additional context for troubleshooting issues ranging from losses in availability to policy misconfiguration. Now, we’ll show you how to access this data with tools that ship with Vault.

A few months ago, I was asked if I wanted to develop an open-source Terraform provider. Eleanor Saitta, principal at Systems Structure Ltd, had a client who was setting up JFrog Xray across their Github repositories but didn’t want to configure each repository by hand. As an SRE who enjoys working on projects that automate away those sorts of pain points (and someone who works extensively with Terraform during their day job), this sounded like an interesting project to work on.
