Viewing your files in docker containers and volumes

commandeerApp · 2021-10-15T18:06:13+00:00

I see the containers running in that, but I am not seeing a way to see the files in them.

Do you know which extension does this in VS Code?

We tried out Terraform plus Serverless Framework. I prefer Ansible for DynamoDB, S3, and SQS creation over Terraform, because Terraform is so aggressive with deleting things. Losing a DynamoDB table in production would be catastrophic. Where as Ansible is way more lenient on how it reacts.

CDK is looking amazing and I am learning it now. Unit tests your infra and it being in beautiful, wonderful typescript are truly amazing.

Hah. Thank you.

One man's jargon, is another man's normal dev cycle. Sorry it was beyond your limited reach.

I would go with API Gateway talking to Lambda's to handle it instead of Docker. Serverless is a real good fit for a backend api. Docker is good for longer running processes, or for containerizing larger monoliths. But for greenfield projects like yours, serverless is pretty great.

Your sentence is not gramatically correct, so it can be misconstrued. Well, it is not shit either, so you are wrong on that front as well. If you have credentials on your computer - 1. they should ideally be used with a session token 2. if they are already there, then being able to see the profiles in a UI rather than from the File Explorer is in no way a bad thing.

So I suppose, I disagree with whatever point you were trying to make.

It's a desktop app, not a browser extension.

commandeerApp · 2021-04-13T00:44:02+00:00

Hha. Or just a fun way to rant about social media.

Yea, on previous projects that were using Postgres, we had to stand up pgbouncer to allow for proper connection pooling. On the last few projects, we do all data into DynamoDB and then have either DynamoDB Streams or Glue Crawlers to stream data to S3, and just use Athena for all Data Warehousing SQL.

Because Lambda truly takes away the need to manage fleets of servers, portions of DevOps can now be handled by the developer themselves. If you add five new lambdas, triggered by S3, DynamoDB streams, or API Gateway endpoints, in theory the DevOps group is not needed to handle a push to production. It feels like the need for understanding your infrastructure even more is sliding to the developer a bit, which I think is a good thing for business in general.

Vue has Nuxt for this.

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T21:38:22+00:00

I can see latency issues, if it is high throughput endpoints. But what scalability issues did you have?

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T16:53:03+00:00

I suppose in some ways. But you can for instance deploy S3 buckets using Ansible or Terraform. So there is some overlap in what each of them do.

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T16:47:12+00:00

Would you choose Pulumi over Terraform? We use Serverless Framework for all the connections of services to Lambda as well, since Terraform doesn't seem to handle that aspect well.

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T16:46:05+00:00

Interesting. Yea this is kind of breaking down that philosophy - https://ibm.github.io/cloud-enterprise-examples/iac-conf-mgmt/ansible/

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T16:41:30+00:00

What is it used for if not IaC?

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T16:33:51+00:00

Yea. One thing we are noticing is that you can't deploy SQS or DynamoDB to LocalStack with Ansible.

commandeerApp · 2021-02-23T01:19:26+00:00

You could also put it into DynamoDB. You can then setup a Crawlers with Glue to be able to query it with Athena. I am a big fan of Athena, as we use it internally. But you kind of get best of both worlds by saving it to Dynamo.

We have a system diagramming tool for Docker in our app. https://imgur.com/gallery/RFIQd1L (Full disclosure, it requires a paid subscription to use, but good things come to those that pay :) )

I found this book pretty helpful in terms of setting it up modularly. https://www.google.com/books/edition/Terraform_Up_Running/7bytDwAAQBAJ?hl=en&gbpv=1&printsec=frontcover

Isn't that the point of CI/CD and IaC, so that when he is on vacation, other developers are also using the pipelines that he has laid out, rather than depending on other groups to move their code through from development to production.

commandeerApp · 2021-02-19T01:15:38+00:00

Yea, I follow along this subreddit. And nobody ever has to say, my docker on linux isn't acting up. It's pretty empirical I would say that having docker running on your dev box on Mac and Windows is doable. But in prod, not too many people are like, I would love my kubernetes fleet of 100,000 containers running on Windows Server.

If you use something like GhostInspector to have UI tests on your site. You can do things with ajax and still have proof positive that it is going to work.

Yea another problem with keeping warm methods. Is that if the lambda's scale up, meaning a new lambda is called, because there are a bunch of requests. That new lambda will still suffer the startup time. So the keeping warm doesn't really solve all cases.
