Kubernetes Migration from Day Minus One (-1) to Day-2

Kubernetes is now much past a hyped-up buzzword and has become nearly the de facto platform for microservices, enabling the flexibility and scalability modern engineering organizations require. It’s no surprise then that many organizations still running on legacy platforms are exploring how to migrate to cloud-native platforms like Kubernetes.

SRE vs. DevOps vs. Platform Engineering

The age of information technology has rapidly expanded to include a wide range of necessary roles to manage and optimize operational frameworks. Site Reliability Engineers (SREs), Development Operations (DevOps), and Platform Engineers have become invaluable within this digital landscape. Here, you’ll learn more about each role, how they differ, and what they bring to the table.

What is an Incident Timeline and How Do You Create One?

Incidents are unavoidable in software development and IT. As a Site Reliability Engineer (SRE), one of the tools you’ll use frequently is an incident timeline. The incident timeline provides a real-time report on any incident, including alerts, system updates, issue severity changes, manual chat entries, and more.

The Punchcard Paradigm: Tracing the Roots of Modern Compliance

In the early days of computing, creating software was a physical act, more akin to factory work than the streamlined digital process we know today. Programmers meticulously transcribed logic onto coding sheets, distinguishing zeros from ‘Os’ and ones from ‘Is’. These cryptic symbols formed the instructions that would be punched into thick card stock decks.

How the FDAP stack drives innovation with open source Apache projects

Using open source projects from the Apache foundation to build low-level database software drives innovation. Andrew Lamb, Staff Engineer at InfluxData and PMC for the Apache DataFusion project, discusses the components of the FDAP stack - Flight, Arrow, DataFusion, and Parquet, explaining how building with these tools helps companies focus on innovation instead of spending dev cycles reinventing the wheel.

Why we used open source Apache projects to build InfluxDB 3.0

To the unfamiliar, building with open source tools may seem like the kind of chaos that leads to Boaty McBoatface-like decisions. Andrew Lamb, staff engineer at InfluxData and PMC for the Apache DataFusion project, provides insight from a developer and a PMC perspective about what it's like to build with, and manage a major open source project. InfluxData recently rebuilt its core database using Apache projects: Flight, DataFusion, Arrow, and Parquet, dubbed the FDAP stack.
