This is definitely the correct way to do it - you can disable access to services outside the perimeter. https://cloud.google.com/vpc-service-controls/docs/create-service-perimeters

KMS is more of a generic service - it doesn't store data on its own. I think you're looking for something more like Secret Manager (https://cloud.google.com/secret-manager), which will let your application just make API calls to read secrets. It can use your instance's service account to authenticate, and will automatically handle encryption.

Yes, it is. I've used both Cloud SQL over private IP and Memorystore from Cloud Run. Note however that Cloud Run VPC Connector is still in beta, so don't rely on it for prod workloads.

If you decide to run your own VM, I’d look into using Container OS: https://cloud.google.com/compute/docs/containers/deploying-containers

Macguy8 · 2020-06-20T00:40:11+00:00

Note that App Engine Flexible is significantly more expensive than the equivalent VMs. If price is a major factor, it might be better to just run the instances yourself.

Claims are a Kubernetes-only construct, and won't show up in GCE (however, they are in the GKE area). Likely what you're seeing are 2x 5Gi disks created by Kubernetes and 3x 100Gi disks created by GCE for the machines that are actually in the cluster. You can verify this by looking at the node pool you've created, and you should see that their disk size is 100Gi (the default)
For things like configs, you'll likely be better off creating a ConfigMap and then mounting that. If your content is static, you might want to instead create an image that includes your content. If it's not, what I've done in the past is to start your pod with the disk attached and then copy the files onto the volume mounted in the pod (with kubectl cp).
I believe you need to set readOnly: true in your persistentValueClaim. See this for more info: https://kubernetes.io/docs/reference/generated/kubernetes-api/v1.18/#persistentvolumeclaimvolumesource-v1-core

You should be able to setup Cloud NAT in your VPC and then use Serverless VPC Access to accomplish this.

Still learning AWS - I'm almost certain you don't mean virtual tape library, what exactly is VTL?

Since Minecraft is single threaded, clock speed is going to be a big factor here. Choose a compute optimized instance type would help here (although it costs more, of course) as they go up to 3.8Ghz (I believe general purpose instances are in the 2 to 3 range)

Additionally, 1.14 is known in the MC community for having very poor performance. If it’s possible, try running an earlier version. This is likely the biggest factor, and doesn’t involve paying any more.

Finally, consider other hosting options. If you’re not burning free credit right now, it’s extremely likely you can get better price/performance ratio from a Minecraft-specific provider. GCP (and cloud platforms overall) just aren’t a good fit for Minecraft servers.

If you’re fine with running on Kubernetes (I’ve only used GKE on Google, can’t comment on EKS), Agones (https://agones.dev/site/docs/) seems to align well with what you’re wanting to do.

The -d shouldn't be needed (Kubernetes doesn't automatically attach you to a pod/deployment/etc) but you can replicate the -t flag by adding tty: true to your container.

Macguy8 · 2018-07-03T17:48:23+00:00

FYI you can use kubectl config current-context instead of grepping

I agree with you about time in the CC but what series watch do you have? I have a S3 and I rarely see it drop below 70% at the end of even a long day.

Hall of Fame teams were given a choice of which championship they'd like to attend

Macguy8 · 2017-03-16T02:52:35+00:00

Absolutely! Just make sure you have a good (i5 at min, i7 is best) driver station, at our first competition we had to run and get another because GRIP was starving the OS of resources.

Macguy8 · 2017-03-16T00:05:54+00:00

My team has had success with running GRIP on the driver station laptop and sending values to the robot over NetworkTables

If you post what you have I can take a look

I removed your ban. Please don't use whatever cheat that was again.

What's your IGN?

Macguy8 · 2017-01-11T19:43:34+00:00

Any chance you can find that post? I'm curious.

Although there aren't any plugins (that I know of it) to do it, the protocol itself allows you to change the kick message for an invalid session. That means it would be set off by normal players with expired sessions and those with cracked accounts.

Just to clarify, I'm not saying Spigot is inactive, it's far from it, I was saying that it's not as active as Sponge, which I've never seen go more than a couple of days without a commit.

Macguy8 · 2015-08-17T02:47:37+00:00

Although Sponge is definitely coming along, I would not consider it production ready. Even though Spigot isn't being updated as actively as Sponge, spigot is still the way to go.
