Same here. We use Quay and are not happy. Their service seems more down than up. The UX is awful.

I grew up in Lahore, Pakistan and knew Basit Alvi - he is a super smart guy who ran a modem-based ISP (BrainNET) long before we had high-speed Internet. He's a hacker at heart.

We[1] haven't found this to be the case. These are early-stage projects but they hold promise for companies that need an internal PaaS at scale. I look at Marathon, Chronos and ZK (to some degree) as building blocks, and DCOS as the gl

We (Appuri) use VPCs exclusively. There are pros and cons. I'll try to list the top: Pros: - Logical isolation. You can put instances (and RDS, Redshift) etc. inside logical subnets that are not addressable from the outside world. -

I'm sorry for the rough turn things took. Rejection from a company you want to work at sucks. I've coached 250+ interviews on Career Cup. Interviewing is a muscle, you have to build it with practice and techniques. Contact me at b

We got pretty far with using Terraform to set up reasonably complex AWS architecture (VPC, multiple subnets etc.) There were several blocking bugs which @hashicorp and friends fixed fairly quickly, but not quickly enough for us to use it in

Ansible is nice, but I share the same gripes as darklajid. Plus, with Docker taking off, I question how valuable Ansible will be going forward. I see it as a "nice Chef" or "usable Puppet". Not revolutionary.
