Fully self hosted is a requirement in my case. Letting an agent that's essentially externally controlled would be a hard sell in corporate environment. In my case, I need very simple workflows that e.g. run Ansible playbooks, or do non

Thanks for the recommendation, hadn't heard of it before!

(When) Is a self-hosted version coming? Does Relay use Lyra in some way, or is it a brand new engine? The usual DevOps automation web systems like Jenkins, GoCD, Rundeck are all disappointing in one way or a dozen. Java, to start with. I&#x

K8s is a lot of things, but a monolith it is not. Quite the opposite - the complexity comes from the large number of relatively simple components interacting in various ways.

The article describes pretty much what SAWS has implemented - https://github.com/donnemartin/saws (mad props to ~donnemartin for the implementation!)

If it takes more than a month to migrate a 20-node K8s cluster, then that's a red flag. Too much tech debt or a strong vendor lock-in? Either deserves attention.

How about contracting an ops-oriented person for a month that would do the migration for you? Where do those cost functions intersect?

This. I'm tired of people implying or right out stating that SQL injection is an input validation problem. Why couldn't you have foo' OR 1=1; as a title of your post? It is all good characters as far as text entry is concer

Sounds like a theologist who wouldn't use a microscope, and instead think over/interpret harder their Holy-book-of-choice. You can get into interesting insights along the way, but I wouldn't call it practical or efficient. De

I also find it frustrating that they are not stating when exactly did the breach occur. The message implies that they know, due to the "brief period" claim, but they are not explicitly stating one of the most important facts. No

Surely your application/serving process is able to handle the request burst coming from any single user ? (If not, you have a bigger problem to solver first). If so, I don't quite see why queueing is discussed as an option at all.

CloudFormation supports the "NoEcho" option specifically to allow password-type parameters, which are not inspectable. How is that not a secure string parameter?

by tie_ 7y ago
Actually, if the author had used CloudFormation, they could have a password-type (NoEcho) Input, and then they wouldn't need to deal with SSM at all. Much less hassle, and just as (in)secure. To do it properly, the author could have cr

You can use rblmon.com to monitor IPs for inclusion in public blacklists. There are other SaaS alternatives in this space as well, in addition to self-hosted scripts/applications. Amazingly, RBLs are still a thing that people need to c

Kudos for the interesting approach! I do think that DB management on Kubernetes belongs to operators, and maintaining a collection of them would be great. This being said, you should not be using TPR, but rather CRDs (see https:/&#x2F

Same here. I had big hopes for Dell's nipple, but it's hardly usable and I tend to prefer the touchpad. On my own Lenovo, I use the nipple exclusively, and touchpad is disabled completely. I had played Quake vs other human players

Same here. Really impressed how the author restrained themselves from jumping into the most intuitive conclusion, and instead quoted a few other plausible alternatives. We need more of that!

Hot code reload interferes with immutable deployments. I'd prefer the immutability over hot code reloading.

I don't believe people would have dropped Ubuntu (in general) for not using systemd (but I'd not bet on the word anyone ). My point was that Ubuntu went with the fold even if people would not have dropped them for sticking to t

I don't like systemd for a bit more practical reasons. For example, how do you like the fact that init now comes with "hidden" timers ? After you've scoured every place that a "traditional" Linux might put sche

I have a strong dislike for systemd, so while I'm really sorry that upstart "lost" the fight, Ubuntu gained a lot of respect in my eyes with the decision to go with the rest and avoid unnecessary fragmentation. This could hav
