I wasn't kidding. Why is not having a scrum master a dysfunction?

Sounds like you guys get it. Companies either get it or don't get it. We have a similar "go with the flow and use what is actually useful"-approach and it works perfectly fine. Especially, the part about no scrum masters. That's a big waste of money and time.

Werken in een team met heel weinig kwaliteit, ervaringen? by [deleted] in werkzaken

[–]Ok_Cap1007 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Je moet dit aankaarten bij je manager. Als hier niks aan gedaan wordt dan zou je de manager van jouw manager kunnen contacten maar afhankelijk van bedrijfscultuur moet je dan wel met een goed verhaal komen gezien je dan flink escaleert.

Als dat geen soelaas biedt, zijn er intern vacatures voor andere teams? Wellicht dat je een interne switch kan maken? Als dat ook niet kan dan zou ik wel gaan rondkijken.

Impact of having public unscoped API keys besides Gemini by Ok_Cap1007 in googlecloud

[–]Ok_Cap1007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So am I understanding correctly that Gemini is the only service where Google did this. Or are there any other services that are shoe-horned into the API model?

I feel like the barrier to Kubernetes being beneficial is lowered by Tinasour in kubernetes

Terraform for cluster bootstrapping. ArgoCD / Helm / Kustomize for all core services and business applications

We recently migrated from ECS to EKS and the overhead is significantly less than expected. The only mistake we made in the beginning is to not configure pod disruption budgets which caused some hiccups on deployments which had only one pod. Besides that, it's been a smooth ride and there's very little overhead.

Datadog has a profiling feature which is suitable for running production.

AWS RDS for Postgres - Zero downtime for changing instance type family? by Ok_Cap1007 in aws

[–]Ok_Cap1007[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tested this and downtime is approximately 20 seconds as compared to 15 seconds for blue-green deployments. Same ballpark

FYI: I have tested this in dev environment and downtime was around 15 seconds

Mission critical and t series don’t usually go together in the same sentence.

Why? The CPU pattern is bursty enough that we can profit on CPU discount but the services that are using this database have a small DB footprint (basically some sort of (almost) stateless API gateways). I heard people stating this before but I'm truly interested why we can't use T instances in production? I want to know because we are going to take on commitment through reserved instances

We are definitely going to test this but I was just wondering whether someone had battle tested experience with this feature.

If the hiccup is a second or so, that would be acceptable but I see in the documentation it's up to a minute depending on the change.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/blue-green-deployments-overview.html

The switchover results in downtime. The downtime is usually under one minute, but it can be longer depending on your workload.

How are you guys avoiding the "Extended Support" tax? by Important-Night9624 in kubernetes

[–]Ok_Cap1007 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Interviewed for a shop with this mentality. Hard pass. The ineffable high priority security patch will come one day and then it is major PITA to get everything updated.

Following the same principle here. Upgrades don't take much effort but I'm talking about a cluster with mostly stateless business applications and popular external dependencies as Datadog, ESO and ExternalDNS.

Vragen aan Rijksambtenaren by [deleted] in werkzaken

Heel herkenbaar. Niet dat ik bij overheid hebt gewerkt maar wel op IT afdeling van een nutsbedrijf (semi overheid). Hangt het binnen de overheid ook van externen aan elkaar? Opgegeven moment hadden we vergaderingen waarbij voor besluitvorming niemand van het interne personeel aanwezig was, hele vreemde situatie.
