How Making Cost a Non-Functional Requirement Helps the CloudZero Engineering Team Build Better Architecture

I never used to care about the cost of the systems I built. As an engineer, why would I? Especially in the days before the cloud, infrastructure resources were purchased and procured by somebody who worked many levels above me. Even when I first started building on the cloud, I had to submit requests (again, to somebody many levels above me) for my resources.

Why a Unified DevOps Platform Matters

In today’s enterprises, DevOps isn’t one process, but many thinly connected tasks. A stack of DevOps tools that need to work together to operate as a single system, each one requiring its own integration and maintenance. The JFrog DevOps Platform unifies our industry-leading products because DevOps has a single goal: to speed releases from code to production. It takes several tools to build DevOps, but DevOps tools need to function as one.

Serverless Meetup Recap - AWS CloudFormation with Yves Gurcan

Team Stackery has been hosting the PDX Serverless Architecture meetup at our Portland office since June of 2018, although the meetup began the year before. It’s always great to see repeat visitors and new faces, and especially to see our community change over the months. In February, we had an entertaining, dynamic, and knowledgeable speaker in Yves Gurcan.

Azure App Service, one of the most used among the Azure offered Services. When the requirement is to host web applications, REST APIs, and mobile back ends, Azure App Service is the go-to Http- based solution. Apps hosted in Azure App Service can be integrated with on-premises or cloud services. It supports both the Windows and Linux-based environments to run and scale the applications.

Kubernetes Rolling Update Configuration

Deployment controllers are a type of Pod controller in Kubernetes. They provide fine-grained control over how its pods are configured, how updates are performed, how many pods should run, and when pods should be terminated. There are many resources available for how to configure basic deployments, but it can be difficult to understand how each option impacts how rolling updates are performed.

The Best Resources for Learning Kubernetes

Kubernetes is the world’s leading container orchestration platform. Its cloud agnostic status enables you to manage your workloads with ease, whether they reside in the cloud or on-premises. It has reduced the necessity of being locked into services provided by a cloud provider as well as the need for an entire operations team to manage large workloads on-premises on virtualization platforms.
