Bitnami helm charts and containers after August 28th #kubernetes #k8s #helm #cloud
Continued thread
Number of #bitnami container images in the #homelab cluster: 4
Number of #bitnami container images successfully removed: 2
Number of #bitnami container images to remove: 1
Next up was redis. Harbor doesn't support a full redis cluster so I searched around for a primary-secondary configuration. Looks like the DandyDeveloper helm chart should do the business so we are off to the races... Two down, one to go!

First up was mariadb-galera, this may end up being a blocg post as I ended up creating my own configuration. I tried the mariadb-operator but it doesn't support scaling down the cluster so it was quickly ruled out...

It seems sealed-secrets has been given a stay of execution.....

Okay so like, there are multiple interfaces and they are all distinct/unique:
- GUI: Graphical User Interface, i.e. the apps that are graphically drawn on screen and can be interacted with using a mouse, like browsers, media, games (etc)
- CLI: Command Line Interface, i.e. 'the terminal', where characters are displayed and commands typed for interactions.
- TUI: Terminal User Interface: Is a mix of the first two, where characters are used within a terminal to imitate graphics, using hotkeys over typed commands.
(There are more, but these are three common ones)
So GUI != CLI != TUI

Hey fedi-admins, what's your recommended GUI option for k8s administration?
Specifically looking for something with a low barrier to entry, as it's intended for the devs in my team who have minimal ops/infra experience.
We've been looking at 'Portainer' as the combination of easy management, stack deploys and RBAC quite appealing, but the way they're aggressively pushing the paid version... not so much.
after bitnami went rogue and giving 28th August deadline to move away from their charts, had to move ≈2Ti #PostgreSQL database. Decided to go for @CloudNativePG and happy I did so.
Clearly the operator handles professionally and gives signals that its developers & maintainers are definite pro-gamers in managing PostgreSQL clusters at scale. Thank you for this amazing project 
What if your #PostgreSQL cluster is running, and the demo app is generating traffic — but there's no visibility into the health of the #Kubernetes cluster, services, or applications? https://t.ly/lYDc6
Daniil Bazhenov shows you how to set up #Coroot in a #GitOps setup using #ArgoCD to gain complete observability, and stay in control of your system health.
Schon wieder Freitag 
Die Zeit vergeht schnell, wenn die Arbeit interessant ist und Spaß macht 
In meinem Fall war es diese Woche viel #Automatisierung mit Ansible in Openstack.
Das Produkt soll zukünftig mit Containern betrieben werden und in neuen Projekten sollen VMs automatisch installiert werden.
Übersetze gerade ein 1200 Zeilen starkes Bash-Skript eines Kollegen zuerst in ein Playbook, anschließend bereinige ich das nach DRY und KISS und was dann übrig bleibt, wird zu einer Ansible Role mit Variablen, die man dann auf 5, 10, 20 Server anwenden kann um die zu betanken.
Mein Vorschlag, auch ohne Kubernetes beim Kunden auf #Container zu setzen und dafür auf einem Server Podman zu verwenden wurde aufgenommen.
It's always DNS.
That is _the_ truest statements in OPS.
When kubeadm fails and random crashes and service restarts happen, go check DNS lookups.
In my case, a DNS slave just died. kubeadmin got that guys reply and five minutes later theres 10 restarts in all control plane services.
Lesson learned: DNS queries belong on a dashboard too.
Опыт эксплуатации Service Mesh в Авито
Привет, Хабр! Меня зовут Игорь Балюк, совсем недавно я работал платформенным инженером в Авито . В этой статье я рассказываю про Service Mesh и показываю, что это, скорее, не конечная точка, где можно найти «серебряную пулю» от всех проблем, а путь, который, возможно, никогда не закончится: придется постоянно куда-то бежать и что-то дорабатывать. В тексте я также разбираю, как работает Service Mesh в Авито. Переходите под кат, будет интересно!
