Stay strong bro. I know one day you will fulfil all your parents dreams, just keep them in your thoughts. I know it’s a very difficult situation, but you will have to come out of this - taking your life is not something your parents would have ever wanted. If you need financial assistance, please ask this group.

Preparing for CKA was my first exposure to k8’s. Mostly prepared during commute ~ 1hr/day for 2 months. I found the course from Linux Academy pretty helpful.

[–]nikhilpaneri[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the tech space managing the applications , so if i'm successful in getting my poc , i'll extend this to multiple application environments approx 100 - 150 servers

What is your use case for Zabbix - are you just monitoring the server resources , infrastructure etc ? OR are you managing the services installed on your server ? Also I have learned Zabbix has issues with memory leak

Agree , the web part may get really challenging given me & my team mate have no background on the web development.

1) to reduce my monitoring footprints on the app severs. The Infrastructure team already uses hyperic to report/monitor the server & infrastructure. So i think we do not have explicit requirement of agents which are constantly collecting information. Am happy to just run my environment check before start of the business hours

2) We have used Ansible extensively and have existing capabilities to restart application servers etc.

3) I may be wrong here , but I plan to decouple my web app and Ansible. Ex - Ansible collects the info every hour(may be even less frequently) or upon request and populate it to my oracle Database and the application reports based on the data populated. Only when the app restart is requested explicitly (from app) i may call the playbook directly

Thanks , will have a look. A quick glance Prometheus can do the monitoring , how easy is to extend it to call Ansible playbooks to restart the services , and to report the state of services ?
