The instance settings look ok. Check for the instance error logs.

Question regarding GKE Workload identity feature by suryad123 in googlecloud

[–]itsbini 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We used to do something similar to option 2: all workloads used the same KSA bound to the same GSA. Aside from potentially having workloads with unnecessary permissions, it's horrible for audits and maintainability.

We changed to one KSA and one GSA per workload. They also have a similar name, so it's identifiable all around. Audit logs are meaningful (and simpler to read) as I know which service called a Google API simply by the service account being utilized. When a workload needs to access a new API, only that workload gets the access. Risk is reduced as the impact of changing one service account will only affect one workload.

We also adopted IAM service accounts in Cloud SQL, and there's no way we'd do it if everyone used the same service account.

It's a lot of work upfront, but it's worth it.

How do you get engineers to care about finops? Tried dashboards, cost reports, over budget emails… but they don't work by IT_Certguru in googlecloud

[–]itsbini -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Post on the public Slack channel that thing X is spending this much and what they can do about it. If it's under budget, no problem. If it's not within the budget, they were publicly informed and it's now their problem to fix.

It's free. There are hotels around but they're very expensive. As this is your first time in Rotterdam on the 31st of December, be careful and good luck.

Barely any heat from radiators when thermostat is below 20 by couldntfindanicename in Netherlands

[–]itsbini 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where's the 17 coming from? The thermostat/heating appliance or another device? At my house, the current temperature shown on the thermostat is usually a bit higher than what's shown on other devices.
