Tech Talk I wrote and delivered about converting a legacy linux cluster service (smokeping) into a modern CI/CD bootstrapped, intuitive cloud app. I talk business drivers, linux tech, and devops automation. #Cloud #automation #linux

What is Tekton and how it compares to Jenkins, Gitlab CI and other CI/CD systems

I think there is often a confusion about Tekton - it's not really a complete CI/CD system, but rather a Lego. I made a video explaining this point:

how to automate AWS marketplace publishing with Ansible - A beginner's guide

Hello everyone,

I've been a long-time subscriber to this subreddit, but this is my first post. I recently published an article on automating AWS marketplace publishing using Ansible. If you're new to Ansible or are looking to streamline your AWS marketplace publishing process, this article is for you!

In this article, I cover the basics of Ansible, how to create an EC2 instance, create an Amazon Machine Image (AMI), and how to use Ansible to automate the publishing process on the AWS marketplace.

I also share some tips and best practices for using Ansible to automate your AWS marketplace publishing.

You can find the article here: https://medium.com/@arshad.zameer/getting-started-with-ansible-for-aws-marketplace-publishing-a547cc13d182

I hope the article is helpful to you. If you have any questions or feedback, feel free to comment.

Thanks for reading!

Is Tekton alive? Comparing Tekton Pipelines with Argo Workflows, ArgoCD and Jenkins

Is Tekton still alive? I’ve successfully used this tool in an Openshift environment, where it makes all the sense - there is a proper integration with the platform itself, and RedHat puts lots of effort into making a real CI/CD system out of it. But do Tekton Pipelines make sense today without a wrapper like Pipeline as Code and JenkinsX on top? And are there many companies actually using Tekton, compared to Argo and similar tools? I tried to answer all of these questions in this new mkdev video, plus did some experiments again with editing - hope it’s now even more fun and engaging to watch it, but feel free to roast me in the comments.

Argo Ecosystem: Argo CD, Argo Workflows, Argo Events, Argo Rollouts, Argo Everything

I feel like not everyone realizes, that Argo is a whole ecosystem today, with different tools covering different use cases, but all working together in a very nice combo. I made a short video explaining Argo ecosystem: https://youtu.be/ae0XJGJPLvo

Found this hilarious DevOps meme on LinkedIn 😂

Not gonna lie, I usually scroll past LinkedIn posts… but this one had me laughing out loud.
If you’re in DevOps or just survived a Jenkins pipeline meltdown — you’ll relate. 😅
