Skyworkz (https://skyworkz.nl) | Cloud Architect/Developer/Engineer | The Netherlands | Full-time | ONSITE

Ever wondered how our job will look like in 5 years from now? What will happen if we apply AI to infrastructure and CI/CD? How to implement Chaos Engineering in production? We do. We're always looking ahead. If you like to help customers innovate, then we should talk. We are looking to hire Cloud Architects, Cloud Developers and Cloud Engineers.

Skyworkz is a small consulting firm based in Utrecht, The Netherlands, and we're looking to expand our team. Currently we are with 10 consultants, growing to a maximum of 25. We explicitly want to stay a small boutique consultancy. Technologies we work with are the Big Three (AWS, GCP, Azure), Kubernetes, CI/CD, DevOps (culture and technology).

Interested? Drop me an email at bas@skyworkz.nl

I like the hands-on tutorials of Instruqt: https://instruqt.com/public/topics/getting-started-with-kube.... They also got quite a few on Knative.

Disclaimer: I worked for Instruqt and created some of these tutorials.

Skyworkz | https://skyworkz.nl | Cloud/DevOps engineers & developers | ONSITE | Utrecht, The Netherlands

We are Skyworkz, a consulting firm focused on cloud native engineering and development. We are looking for cloud engineers and developers with experience in AWS/Azure/GCP and Kubernetes who want to make impact. Current customers are Nike, Jumbo, Port of Rotterdam and more.

So why are we different? Well, first of all both directors are technical. They were consultants themselves. Secondly, we want to stay small. Maximum 25 people. So you will always know everyone in the company without feeling like a number. And thirdly, we focus on learning. Get you the right assignments, help you become a better consultant.

Instruqt | The Netherlands (Hilversum) | Marketing role | Full-time | https://instruqt.com

Instruqt makes learning of technology more fun. By solving hands-on challenges on real infrastructure, we teach developers in Cloud, DevOps and Data. With the Engine, companies can add their own (private) content as well.

The team is growing, and we need more marketing power. If you have affinity with IT and learning, and have experience in in-bound, worldwide marketing, we should meet.

Contact me at bas[at]instruqt.com. We have good coffee in Hilversum!

Vamp is awesome! It fits really nice into Kubernetes.

Thanks!

Docker's main focus is to "get people agree on something". And they are doing great in getting traction and adoption. But if everyone starts to create their own flavor of containers, we still don't get portability across servers and clouds. It would be better IMHO if Rocket implements the Docker API, or if they collaborate together in creating a minimal standard. Then everyone would benefit. I'm really curious how Solomon will respond to this...

Apparently this is already fixed in Docker 1.0:

  Its fixed in docker 1.0 since CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH is no longer available.

  Other FS-related threats to container based VMM's that have been discussed:

  - subvolume related FS operations (snapshots etc)
  - FS ioctl's that accept FS-handles as well (XFS)
  - CAP_DAC_READ_SEARCH also defeats chroot and other
    bind-mount containers (privileged LXC)
  - CAP_MKNOD might be a problem too (still available in docker 1.0) depending on the drivers available in the kernel

Reloading is no issue when you have few frontends or backends. But when you have a lot of front- or backends, the configuration file will be huge, and reloading will take some time. If you need to reload every few seconds, this might even cause downtime. But I guess our workload is not the usual implementation of HAProxy...

What I would like to see is a way to change the HAProxy configuration on the fly, or something like a configuration backend. That would avoid reloading HAProxy after each config change, and allow a much more flexible configuration.

I'm very curious what's not right with the mentioned services? Why don't you trust them yet?
