AKS is the managed service from Azure for Kubernetes. When you create an AKS cluster, Azure creates and operates the Kubernetes control plane for you at no cost. The only thing you do as a user is to say how many worker nodes you’d like, plus other configurations we’ll see in this post.

Infrastructure management has come a long way. (Mostly) gone are the days of manual configurations and deployments, when using SSH in a “for” loop was a perfectly reasonable way to execute server changes. Automation is a way of life. Configuration management tools like Chef, Puppet, and Ansible — once on the bleeding edge — are now used by most enterprises.

Mint is a shiny new Elixir package which allows you to make HTTP requests using the HTTP 1 and HTTP 2 protocols. It can transparently handle ALPN (Application Layer Protocol Negotiation), which essentially means that it can figure out if a server uses HTTP2 or HTTP1 on its own. It also comes with an optional dependency on a castore package which verifies the SSL certificates of the servers (that you connect to).
