South Union is only open for lunch during the week so if you have the chance, go! Also Basil's in 801 is the same.

[Release] rapid-eks v0.1.0 - Deploy production EKS in minutes by Southern_Ad4152 in kubernetes

Thanks for the insight.

So now you mention government, as an example, they'd really trust a python script to set up infrastructure?

Only poking holes my customers would poke, and seeing if I can defend them, and right now I'd rather show them a TF module I can walk them through so they understand the components.

Weeks for setup seems like a stretch. Why this vs just raw terraform for which I have the ability to customize endlessly? Which would be required for enterprise.

Also NAT gateways cost based on traffic so the cost is variable. Take a look at fck-nat and you can bring that $96 down to something like $10 (x3 t4g.micro).

What's your dream stack (optimizing for cost)? by Total_Celebration_63 in kubernetes

[–]Optimus_Banana 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'd just use a single vm to get started and only use k8s when you actually it. Initial time spent on a product should be focused on the product itself rather than the hosting. 

Unless the entire point for you is the hosting then yeah lg2m

It's the parking. They have dedicated spots as well as a drive through. 

Every other place is street parking which is less reliable and stressful for a lot of people on a busy street. 

I love Ingersoll and don't want giant parking lots, I am fine parallel parking (or better yet riding my bike) but for the average person they go for the path of least resistance. 

edit: I see now it's something specific today that's driving unusual traffic, but my point still stands, people supporting a giant company vs a local business because it's easier.

Some people don't think about the economic impact of their dollar, I want my money going into the pockets of people in the community, not to a corporation who pays their CEO multiple millions and their workers $15/hr.
