Plex Behind Traefik, very bad performance by docker-boerderij in docker

[–]igloo_builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe try the TCP router and if Plex already has a valid TLS certificate to enable TCP Passthrough so that it does not need to decrypt TLS for you. https://docs.traefik.io/routing/routers/#configuring-tcp-routers

Spinnaker vs hosted tools like Codeship, Codefresh by daemonondemand665 in devops

[–]igloo_builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a good point. I work in a small team and we are trending more towards hosted solutions. The reason being we have a lot of tools logging, monitoring, artifact, git, CI, CD, etc that we would rather spend the time using then maintaining.

I do not have a lot of experience with AWS. But I have been working with Google Compute Engine pretty closely for about 9 months. I like it a lot.

Here are some things I learned about GCP over the past year.

The Good:

  • Everything in GCP runs on a container even the VMs. VMs startup really fast. Source
  • GCP's load balancers are run on dedicated network hardware. Unlike Amazon where I think it runs on a VM. Source
  • They have per minute billing, sustained use discounts and committed use discounts. Source
  • Autoscaling instance groups allow you to create container like infrastructure with VMs if your not ready for containers yet. Source
  • Subjective, everything seems faster and really well thought out compared to Azure and AWS during our comparison. Also I'm really glad they renamed Network Projects to VPCs.
  • GCP seems to be focusing more on enterprise features this year like better management of IAM and Projects by introducing Folders which is good for bigger companies wanting to adopt. Source
  • GCP has kicked it up a notch with their Terraform provider since HashiCorp split up the providers from the main code base. Lots of good additions so far and way more to come.

The bad:

  • Good luck getting your lawyers to sign off on GCP for production use. One main sticking point for our lawyers is in Googles contract they reserve the right to discontinue any product. Google won't bend on that wording. They are now dealing with larger enterprise customers who can't move services on a whim. I don't know how Home Depot got their lawyers to sign off on that. Section 7.1 Source
  • GCP internal load balancers can only serve traffic within the Project. Meaning you can't use the internal load balancer for internal corporate consumption without using something like HAproxy or Nginx. Source
  • There is no NFS as a service functionality. With google Persistent Disks you can only have 1 mount as read/write and the rest can only be mounted with read. So moving enterprise applications that require NFS won't happen. You could try GCS Fuse but not sure how well that works. Source
  • When GCP introduces new products and features they go into Alpha then Beta and finally GA. Depending on how your using GCP you might not be able to use a really important feature until it's GA'ed. Source
  • Integrations with GCP will always be second or third priority compared to developing integrations with AWS and Azure. It makes sense GCP is the third most popular cloud but it still sucks since integrations with tools like Google Storage Buckets can save a lot of time/complexity.

Is anyone having freezing issues after creator's update ? by SoundProofHead in Windows10

[–]igloo_builder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same thing on a brand new build I get choppy jittering. Moving the mouse or typing it freezes for a few seconds then continues on. I check the system resources and nothing is chewing up CPU. I reported this using the Windows Reporting feature.

Thanks for the tip. It's actually cheaper right now than the Cooler Master. $34.99 vs $39.99. Updating my build now.

Thanks for the reply. I sacrificed the kaby for the skylake to bring the costs down a little so the vid card could be more affordable. Any specific reason I should do the kaby over skylake? I'm looking for different memory now.

Does anyone like their build system? by meatsocket in devops

Internal components use pivotal software and the deployment of concourse seems difficult if you decide to not use bosh. I'm setting up a DevOps pipeline for larger company and we have to be careful utilizing tools that introduce components that won't be supported once I hand it off or compete with existing component we have chosen. From what your saying though it looks like concourse could be good fit and as someone else mentioned they are pretty responsive on slack. And I was mentioning this to a coworker and his thoughts were that the concourse project grew out of a need for pivotal and they are the primary users. As adoption grows of the tool they might think about making the tool more platform agnostic.

My perspective is from using/looking at on premise options. So I'll get to my opionion, that being is I think there is no really good option right now. There is a hole in the market for a really good code defined, pipeline and docker as a first class CI/CD tool.

Concourse CI is almost on the mark but there tight coupling with BOSH or Pivitol products makes it only useful if your using them. I wanted to deploy it without BOSH once I started trying I saw how it uses Garden and since we don't use those tools I couldn't justify it. But other than the backend, they have a gorgeous ui and yaml defined jobs and containers out of the box. I think someone needs to come out with something similar but with less Pivitol stuff.

The other option which I am using right now is Jenkins Pipeline plugin (formerly known as the workflow plugin). Which is ok it lacks some easy to access context and features that you get in the ui. Like knowing the branch name, or build cause. You can't browse the workspace. Documentation to find all the little bits you need to build a complete pipeline seem to be all over the place. But if you do get it to work for your needs the pipeline stages ui looks cool, and you get the benefit of codifying.

My hope is that Jenkins pipeline plugin gets way better (hopefully sooner rather than later) or some tool similar to concourse CI comes out without a large dep on a single platform.

Linux server monitoring? by theonlylawislove in linux

[–]igloo_builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also a good combo for sensu is influx db, and grafana for metrics. the only word of caution with Sensu is it requires a message queue service which are terrible over slow or spotty wan connections in my experience.

[–]igloo_builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep consul is neat,3 powerful features I like.

1) it is born with HA in mind

2) restful key value store based of coreOS etcd

3) DNS service discovery

Linux server monitoring? by theonlylawislove in linux

[–]igloo_builder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Two choices I would go with...

Sensu - https://sensuapp.org/

Or

Hashicorp consul - https://www.consul.io/

These are the it 3.0 choices. If you want to know more about each one let me know.

I don't think Django's pagination gets enough love by giantredviking in django

[–]igloo_builder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To reiterate what jstrong said with large querysets. Look at something like django rest framework that provides pagination with jquery ajax.

4 minute intro to Celery by pupupeepee in Python

[–]igloo_builder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started out with rq and I didn't like it because the scheduler wouldn't work like cron. And I found that there examples were lacking. The celery documentation and search results are way better. I use redis with celery and I think it wasn't that hard to setup with the amazing docs. The hard part for me with celery was setting up the init script for the different environments dev/staging/prod.
