Tools for describing infrastructure of services [Need Advice]
Hi, folks!
My task is to describe (visually) the infrastructure of microservices in our company. The diagram should show servers, virtual servers, microservices and links between them. Could you advise some tools and methods? It will be better if it's free tools)

DevOps at scale: challenges and solutions
I was asked to implement automation/DevOps at scale, where IT is far from being the core business. I don't want to go deep in the meaning of DevOps, let's say they're ok with automation and pipelines.
If you are in a big org, with thousand of services and apps, which was the biggest challenge? And how did you solve that?

Kops cluster having different enviroments that are mostly independant of each other
I have a KOPS cluster that I am using for two different environments called envA and envB which I'd like to have share the masters and then have affinity rules on my pods so that they only run on certain nodes. I was thinking that I could use instance groups and node labels? Would this be a safe solution or should I do the extra work and cost to have a differen cluster? I'd rather not but if it's my best option then I guess I have to, neither of the environments are production or external facing

China's cloud needs are growing at high speed, but is China ready for DevOps?
Local players like Tencent, Baidu, and Alibaba dominate China's cloud market.
While the whole world embraces AWS, Microsoft, Google, and other cloud platforms, Alibaba cloud leads in China and has an exceptional growth rate, with 47.3% of China’s cloud computing market share.
The problem is, China has strong regulations over the usage of the internet in a particular way, and their great firewall of China restricts most of the cloud companies to embrace DevOps. For example, you can't access the Docker images easily in China, and the distribution & collaboration of software seems pretty hard.
I recently wrote an article that should help some of you understand [how the cloud market works in China and how to enter the Chinese cloud market](https://hackernoon.com/cloud-and-devops-market-in-china-a-brief-overview-wcu30p8).

Tips for retaining knowledge (skill -> job)
So I am about to start doing LinuxAcademy a lot need to bulk up on skill to break employment. I also have a book "A Practical Guide to Linux" but it is exhaustive.. I can barely remember :sv and :sp in Vim to split panes open file horizontal or vertical or ^W - s or ^W - v to split windows vertically or horizontally.. Yet alone the whole language syntax of Python and (hopefully) coming up: Kubernetes / Ansible. I want to know is it even humanly possible to be fluent in all these tools it seems like I have a tough time even remembering how to split/manipulate windows in Vim I suppose practice would make perfect but how far can I take this without a strategy? It appears as if I would have to take detailed notes to remember all the bits and pieces of the skilled work that cloud engineer / CI CD automation engineer is required to remember. Is this what you do or do you think it is actually humanly possible to memorize everything?

Tying together the infrastructure provisioning and system configuration
Hello devops community,
I wanted to ask for your advices/ideas on a use case I regularly face. Basically, I often need to create a set of resources on a cloud platform, such as load balancers, static ips, virtual machines and so on. After that, I need to configure these virtual machines: install packages, start/enable services, write files and so on - typical configuration management.
Ideally, I want to fully automate this process.
Problem is, different tools excel at different use-cases. Let's take Terraform and Ansible: Terraform is doing a very good job on doing the first, provisioning the cloud resources. However, it is really weak on configuring these machines after: features like local-exec/file provisioner, templating and so on are nowhere near as powerful as Ansible.
If I go with doing the whole job with Ansible, then there is the exact opposite problem: Cloud provisioning plugins exist, yes, but they are pretty buggy, cannot handle state changes well, don't have a state storage like Terraform has, so on and so forth.
Some solutions come to my mind, such as:
\- Calling Terraform from Ansible using terraform module, then dynamically adding created hosts to inventory and configure them.
\- Calling Ansible from Terraform via local-exec and/or cloud-specific startup-scripts. Similar problem as above.
\- Tying them together with a python/bash/similar script, and/or using the CI/CD pipeline to do one after the other.
\- Treat VMs immutable: Create a VM image via Ansible/Packer, then use Terraform to bring a vm up based on this image. As described in this link: [https://www.hashicorp.com/resources/ansible-terraform-better-together](https://www.hashicorp.com/resources/ansible-terraform-better-together)
\- Using another tool that handles both use cases fairly well: Is there any other tool that can do it? Maybe SaltStack?
I'd like to hear what approaches you follow for a similar use case. Any advices?

How are people executing communications/notifications for a large, distributed engineering organization?
I work in an engineering organization with \~1000 engineers across 100 teams that is globally distributed. These teams collectively build/maintain/depend on an incredible amount of AWS infrastructure, software, and other resources.
A consistent issue that I see affect our organization revolves around how to structure communications when dependencies/policies/resources change in some way.
* How do we notify and capture the attention of teams that own or depend on these resources when they change? How do we notify people about a breaking change or a policy update?
* How do we even know that teams have seen an announcement?
I'm looking for a tool that could help us streamline this process. We could build something ourselves but I want to ask around to see if anyone else has dealt with this problem before committing to any course of action.
**Existing Tools:**
* We have an existing application that allows teams to self-manage which projects/repos are owned by the team, who is on the team, Slack channels, email list, JIRA board, etc as a reference for the rest of the organization.
* Email list for all engineering members.
* Engineering Slack announcement channel
**Potential Requirements:**
The ideal tool would let us create entities/targets based on our existing team metadata and allow us to send targeted notifications to each team.
* We would like a single entry point that any engineering team can use to send these notifications.
* We would like teams to be able to designate where they would like different types of notifications to be routed. For example, an “Action Required” type of notification could be set to generate a JIRA ticket in a team’s backlog.
* We would like to be able to keep a history of these notifications and refer back to them.
* We would like some notifications to contain “acknowledgement” mechanisms if desired to allow tracking how teams have responded to notifications.

GCP-Nuke v0.1.0 alpha - the GCP project cleanup tool with added radiation
Link: [https://github.com/arehmandev/gcp-nuke](https://github.com/arehmandev/gcp-nuke)
Hi all. Any Google Cloud users here wanting to cleanup projects? Maybe even do a dry-run to see whats taking up those bills?
AWS-nuke seemed to be incredibly popular and mature, so after many nights of rolling around dreaming of GCP support tickets ([Shared VPC ghost subnets? Anyone?](https://cloud.google.com/vpc/docs/deprovisioning-shared-vpc)) I decided to do something about it.
I've written a few CLIs in my time, but nothing prepared me for the unreliability of a delete API operation claiming it was complete, and a dependent resource claiming it still exists. As such, I've added retries, dependency checks, and tried to make each resource as easy as possible to contribute to. There is a roadmap still to improve and add robust testing, and many code reviews I'm sure to come, but its a start.
As of now it supports compute and GKE resources (GCE instances, disks, instance groups, instance templates, GKE clusters).
Let me know what you think, I'm always on the lookout to improve my Go development.
Cheers.

Boss wants to fire after hours call service, what can we move to?
We currently pay for a small company to answer the phones after hours and escalate to a technician if needed or just take a message. They've been unreliable lately and we want to see about automating it. We are looking for an answering service that could do these things below, what products or suggestions would you have for this?
​
* During after hours we generally just forward our whole company phone \*72 etc to the call center, instead we would forward to this new service.
* IVR Answer and forward to one of four duty phones or straight to after hours voicemail for non urgent stuff.
* Duty phone numbers need to be easily changed or even better scheduled in advance specifying changeover times
* Calls should be recorded
* Metadata should be recorded, from number, duration, IVR selections made etc
* If weekly and/or daily summaries could be sent to a couple people that would be great
* Ideally less than $100/mo.
FreePBX came to mind but that seems like a very high initial investment in labor in getting it running. There's probably some cloud service out there doing what I need I've never heard of, what do you say?

[Need Advice] Setting up a VPN for my kubernetes cluster without a loadbalancer
First off I want to say that I am very new to devops and I have just started learning about a lot of things. My case is as follows:
I want to add a VPN to my cluster so that I can visit services that are exposed using a ClusterIP service. OVPN has a tutorial / helm chart on how to do this, however these services are installed as Loadbalancers. For the sake of just development I do NOT want to spend money on a loadbalancer if I can avoid this.
I have tried using a nodeport but I have yet to get that working.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Trying to learn too much too quick, what should I prioritize?
Hi all, I just would like a bit of advice. I currently work in DevOps for my company. I was the first iteration of a DevOps and the only one however I feel my skill set is seriously lacking and I want to try and skill up so that I'm prepared a bit more for the future and what tasks/projects that may bring.
I got moved into this position due to a strong ops/infrastructure/release background but I had zero dev knowledge/experience. So I started trying to learn Python, C#, Powershell. I didn't get too far with any of them as I kept splitting my time and resources between them but I learnt enough Python so that I could build a monitoring system using Python/Selenium/Prometheus and Grafana and just the barebones of PowerShell so that I could automate a few boring tasks/know how to google and implement scripts I found.
All my experience is On-Prem so I started trying to learn AWS and Azure via online courses and playing around with them but the problem I was finding is the Azure stuff was changing too quickly and because I was spreading myself thin I was struggling to keep up. Also, I only know Windows so I started trying to pick up Linux etc.
Then on top of that because literally everything I see about DevOps is to do with containers so I started trying to learn about Docker and Kubernetes. The problem I am facing is I don't really know what to prioritise, my work situation is very strange at the moment so currently there isn't any expansion for moving forward with technology and my free time isn't massive and I feel the last few months I haven't really learnt much because I hit a point where it felt like I wasn't absorbing information.
​
So coming up to the new year I'd like to prioritise what I should learn so I can set some achievable goals so I can actually progress things. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Merry Christmas :)

GDPR for operating systems
As I value privacy a lot along with respect the GDPR law, why are operating systems not complying to this law? When I log into a linux server, the first thing it says is: `Last login: ... <ip-address>`. It actually keeps track of my ip address. I actually never took time to further investigate what it does with your IP address, but assume the server got hacked, there is sensitive login information from all the devs who logged in to the server.
Why is this law not respected by operating systems? Is it necessary to do so?

I actually never took time to further investigate what it does with your IP address, but assume the server got hacked, there is sensitive login information from all the devs who logged in to the server.
Why is this law not respected by operating systems? Is it necessary to do so?

When should you use Terraform over provider API?
If a service has an API and is also a Terraform provider, how do you determine which to use? If you already built python classes and toolkits that utilizes the API, should you migrate to Terraform?

Where to host for eastern Europe and China
Hi everyone, I'm a dev ops engineer in the US with experience in mainly GCP and some aws. I'm relatively new to things like site speed but I'm learning about latency and how optimizing for regions in the US is important.
I'm working on a project that would be primarily servicing eastern Europe and China. I see hosting in China is possible on GCP and aws but I can't seem to find a cloud platform in eastern Europe. Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

Database schema changes
I'm current working with the LAMP stack and extrapolating everything into microservices and implementing immutable infrastructure. The one issue I'm having conceptually is how to manage database schema changes via atomic / immutable infrastructure.
Currently our websites will experience downtime when updating the software where database schema changes occur and I was hoping to get some advice on how to avoid this using containerisation.
Thanks

Is this a devops role? What should I be learning?
Hi everyone, I'm starting an internship in a few weeks and I'm trying to study some concepts in advance so I won't be completely lost when I start. The responsibilities seem to be related to what a devops position would have, but it's on the "Tools" team and I'm not sure of what I should be learning before I start. Some of the job responsibilities on the description are:
- Create internal tooling frameworks that help teams simplify environment management and monitoring.
- Utilize CI/CD and other tools to help other engineers to self-service day to day operations.
- Explore image & container-based build, testing, and deployment strategies.
- Investigate new ways to automate deployments, canary analysis, and rollbacks.
I'm a complete beginner to all of these concepts with no experience regarding CI/CD pipelines, containers, and automation deployments. Currently I'm thinking about starting this [devops learning path on Linux Academy] (https://linuxacademy.com/learning-path/junior-devops-engineer-entry-level/) but skipping the Linux Foundation course because that seems less relevant. Is that a good idea? If not, any suggestions on better places I could get started would be greatly appreciated.
Merry Christmas!
