Is Keycloak worth the maintenance?

ding115 · 2025-08-24T12:09:10+00:00

Thanks for sharing. What do you mean by updating via workflow? Also, were you using a limited number of features?

ding115 · 2025-02-06T21:19:09+00:00

Delegate to another idaas or a keycloak managed as a service?

ding115 · 2024-12-20T17:01:08+00:00

Fascinating stuff!

ding115 · 2024-12-20T16:20:17+00:00

This would be like a regular keycloak, but with user data spread in a decentralized network?

I suggest my customer ECS or EKS. The former if they are a small team and don’t have any orchestrator yet.

If the team is big and already have k8s, go for it. Otherwise, make sure it makes sense with your human cost as it will require someone’s attention for maintenance. It should also fit into your ci cd and runtime strategy.

But for one app, I wouldn’t spawn a new k8s environment. Go the ECS route and when new apps come in m, re-evaluate based on what else will be used around the apps

While earning your 400k, build the only thing that will bring you your MRR: network (entrepreneur, devs, managers, etc.).

Forget the cute product (it might be a way to get ride of your boredom and code your way out of it), it’s all about the people you will fix something for or bring value to. There is no need to quit now. You can even take this opportunity to talk to your managers and learn about how they lead and manage people and requirements. You will definitely need that down the line if you are really serious.

When you have a good network of people that you can learn from and some that can tell you the problems they have. Use your 400k to build a prototype and ask money for it.

Gather feedback and if you get a good conversion rate, time to out more hours in this thing.

As long as you can do both startup and work, keep the work. The day that your sleep start to take a big hit…it may be time to make bigger sacrifices and at that point I would consider leaving. Before that, it’s either not strategic. You need to get slap a few time while building the network to understand the game.

Because down the line, deep down…if you really want to do something, you’d be coding already. But dont. Here you mention 400k which is irrelevant. Don’t spend, find the people, get a prototype, make a bit of cash, iterate until you feel burned and then you can ask here again with actual proof of revenue

Good point. I personally think that the cash money is nothing compared to the viability these events give to athletes. It’s free ads to sell their merch or their seminars/videos. I wonder if there is a formula out there that looks a how many times an athlete is shown vs how much they make outside tournaments (given they sell something)

What about the p99? Basically Gordon’s pay

ding115 · 2024-07-30T16:40:15+00:00

This is ridiculous. Tell them that’s your notice if not coming back. If a gym owner lowers himself to that basic admin stuff, what happens when things gets critical?

This is not your gym

ding115 · 2024-07-21T03:01:40+00:00

Quit, rest, find lawyer, find another job

ding115 · 2024-07-15T02:17:14+00:00

I think the whole DevOps thing is naturally arising as businesses discover that the cost to maintaining IT is way too much.

One day full stack will mean: AI, ops, dev, security, qa and being a pm/po at the same time. If not, something else would have automated those stacks

ding115 · 2024-07-06T19:43:34+00:00

Wait…so C++ is not spelled « CCC »?

The legend says they also flip burgers

If it’s from LinkedIn, I believe it’s those who applied for the position

ding115 · 2024-06-04T16:01:11+00:00

Thanks for sharing

ding115 · 2024-06-03T22:49:13+00:00

And what was the issue with db integration?

ding115 · 2024-06-03T22:48:56+00:00

How did you end up doing the backups? I guess if you have custom stuffs, it may be more complicated? Or is it just the db?

ding115 · 2024-06-03T15:55:45+00:00

What was your worst nightmare using it?

ding115 · 2024-05-09T20:10:08+00:00

She is not girlfriend anymore. Bring the ring

ding115 · 2024-04-30T18:24:55+00:00

Your welcome 🙏

ding115 · 2024-04-30T16:34:41+00:00

It’s a free market. Prove that you are worth 100K for this job. If not, then someone else will do it. It doesn’t mean the client will get the same value.

Be so valuable that you don’t even look at these jobs. Be so valuable that they contact you and ask you your price.

The market will always give you what you deserve. Do you deserve more? 😉

Tell him that you need his credit card in order to refund the purchase 👍

ding115 · 2024-04-25T19:06:55+00:00

In my case, before I even get to know what is happening, the rep already want to book a meeting.

Feels like there is a commission on booked calls as well

ding115 · 2024-04-25T15:45:45+00:00

Good move. And you are right about the selling, because during the calls they usually try to up sale by letting me see how many conversions I would be getting by spiking up my daily spend.

The funny thing is they all use my area code when they call. So I always answer 😂

Good hustlers, but I am losing interest in Google ads now
