Founder of a startup, having a major article killing your company and "don't have time on a Saturday with my family to engage".
I understand that family is important, but isn't a situation like this so important that you - at least - replace some time next week by 2hours now to answer to this article?!
I really like it. I often look for a receipe with many likes online and have to read dozens of comments to adjust it...
For example the receipe of some cake where nearly all commenters advise to put 1/4 of the sugar advised. If you don't read the comment, chances are that even with a recipe approved by many people it tastes like shit.
Why didn't they chose to split it? You always have your bare-metal infrastructure and if you need a terrible growth and need more IT infra, you can use public cloud to handle to load until you find plan a good solution bare metal.
Sure it's some work, the setup is sometimes not ideal, but it's a huge gain imho.
In addition, many people bring the argument that infrastructure is not their core skill. It is true, but do they need to get to the level of public clouds to run their own infrastructure ? I mean, even with sub-optimal choices on hardware but smart choice on how you handle your architecture, you still can have huge savings and not so many risks by doing it in-house.
I don't exactly know but on what project do you base yourself on?
I can see many projects not versioning at all (or just tagging incrementally when they find it's stable enough). So my guess is that semver wouldn't be followed because they do not keep track of the features and breaking changes that might happen.
Huge news, I really hope this is gonna help the workflow and give another alternative for scheduling.
I have been waiting for the update since last November (iirc it was scheduled for end of 2016).
BTW - Am I the only one finding the quality of the linked video very bad?
Just spent the last 15minutes on it and my first impression is that documentation is still too poor to use it professionally.
Even though, after a couple of tries, it looks like an awesome start and I'll follow this up with great attention.
Good job to the team for building an open-source tool for CD!
I'm not a security expert (far from it) but I hope that I understand enough the importance of security to learn a bit about it and implement it as much as I can.
Secure defaults is now maybe the first concept I'm trying to explain to people in my company.
Two ways:
1. You pay and leave your delivery informations.
2. You're a regular customer and have an membership account for that.
I can see a lot of people living outside the city using this service because Monoprix is near their workplace. They go after work, ask for delivery, go back home by train, and then are delivered the day after for instance.
Actually, 100,000 requests per month is a little less than a req per second. Which means that if you want to have all the services that GH is offering, I guess you would pay quite a lot (relatively speaking).
It raises a lot of questions, like... a ton.
1. Really libre until what? Do you have ANY Libre DataCenterInfrastructureManagement/BuildingManagementSystem that can really be used in production? What about the Chillers/UPS/CRAC/GENsets/... What about the design of the DataCenter ? The access system, badging system, ...?
2. What about networking devices?
3. They provide VPNs/... but what about ISPs/...?
4. If it's they're 1st DC, what about the quality of the designs? The redundancy?
...
> What could go wrong?
Everything. From the beginning with how you choose your chillers (a bad choice could easily double your PowerUsageEffectiveness), to the future with how you operate it.
Nonetheless, I find the initiative awesome and I wish you a huge luck and I really hope they'll succeed! The intention is clearly laudable.
P.S.: I work at Etix Everywhere (www.etixeverywhere.com) a company designing, building and operating modular DataCenters around the globe. We're recruiting a lot so don't hesitate to take a look, and help us to build data centers really everywhere!
Has anyone already successfully created a HA-cluster on a bare metal infrastructure?
It seems overly complicated and not that well documented from what I can see.
Last year, I was sick all the time, just for a joke a co-worker offered a box of vitamins (1 month of pills). I took them just to try.
My big surprise was that when taking them I wasn't feeling any "better"... but when I stopped, I clearly felt that I wasn't sleeping as well as few days before.
I tried again several months later, and to my amazement, it worked exactly as the first time.
I'm very skeptical about the studies around vitamins and I prefer taking some in the winter since it's the period of the year I feel the most stressed and sleepy.
I already spoke with other people having the same experience and none of them has more insights of how healthy this is or not...
