From idea to deployment in 4 hours
Hey guys,
yesterday i've accomplished something i've had in my head a few weeks already and only needed around 4 hours from idea to deployment. Check it out: https://og-img.com
It is completely free with no registration required.
The idea:
I wanted to have some dynamic Opengraph Images (those og:image metadata you see in blog & social media posts) on my own blog to look better when shared via social media.
The dynamic part is in the url, which means if i want to write a blogpost about devops salaries i can easily write my own OpenGraph Image with simply just changing the URL like this: https://og-img.com/Devops%20salaries/og.png
The "Devops%20salaries" part is the dynamic part which results in the final OpenGraph Image.
You can generate every Image you can image, as long as it fits in 100 characters, and embed this into your own blog or social media posts.
Tech stack:
The heavy lifting is done via node.js in the backend + vanilla javascript in the frontend
I decided to dockerize the whole application, especially because i wanted Caddy as a reverse proxy to handle the node.js container traffic.
The stack node.js + caddy is running in a docker compose setup on a mediocre VM from hetzner.
I announced the service on r/webdev and got some huge traffic yesterday, but the stack handled all of this perfecty.
If you have any feedback or questions let me know! <3

Logging software recommendations
Hey! So I'm looking for a logging software that has a free plan for starting and cheap plans with good retention times. It's for Java apps (specifically Minecraft servers) where I run multiple instances per server type (for example, first server type would be running in 5 instances and second server type would be running in 10 instances). Any recommendations that you can give? I've seen Axiom, I'm currently thinking on that. Or should I use Sentry self-hosted or another product? Thanks in advance.

How to pass environment variables to remote server using GitHub Actions
I have a flask app for which I want to setup CI/CD using GitHub Actions. I am not sure what the best way to pass environment variables for my Postgres and flask containers. Of course I cannot keep a `.env` file in version control.
My approach is to connect to the server through SSH and create a `.env` file and refer to it in my `docker-compose.yml`
Is this bad practice?

Free solution to having Nx Cloud on our bare metal server?
Hi everyone. I wanted to ask if there is a free solution to having Nx Remote Cache locally on our bare metal server? Basically a free local version of Nx Cloud.
I have a project in my team that uses an Nx monorepo, and we have own bare metal servers.
I want to be able to share the Nx cache with other team members, so it can speed up development and testing.
Is there any solution out there? Even if it doesn't have all the bells and whistles of the paid version?

OpenTofu 1.9 is here with foreach support for providers, here is how to use it.
Last week I decided to try out the foreach and there was not really any clear documentation on how to use it. So after looking through the PRs and some other mentions to figure out how to use it, I threw together a blog post with a complete example.
The TL;DR, so you don't even need to go to the blog is:

Cross-platform alternative to npm scripts
I really enjoy the ability to create alias for a command using "package.json.scripts" in Node. Is there a lightweight tool that allow me to do that cross-platform, workspace-first and allow comments?
P/s: I've looked into just, make, mise but they don't seem to do what I want. Mise seems to be very close but it is also quite heavy to install.

University and learning - devops
Hi, in just over a year, I'll finish my studies in telecommunications and IT. I have a broad foundation in various IT topics, a bit more knowledge in networking, but nothing particularly advanced apart from that. Based on my interests, I’d like to follow the DevOps path and learn more about it before starting an internship.
What learning path should I choose? What steps should I take to make it logical and effective? What should I focus on the most? Should I use platforms like Kode Kloud, for example?
And one more thing: what are the intermediate job positions for someone aiming to become a DevOps engineer in the future?

Best practice to filter out bot traffic and spammers?
I launched a site which gets some pretty heavy traffic currently. When i look into my logs it seems like a good chunk of the traffic is trying some wordpress vulnz and other stuff i dont want to have on my server.
Whats the best way to mitigate this traffic? I already have fail2ban configured for SSH. Would it be suitable to use some other tooling?

Display host cursor when recording a video on headless windows machine via RDP
I am connecting to a headless windows machine via RDP hosted on Google Cloud Platform via Remote Desktop. I need to record some videos on this windows machine. However, every time I try to record something, the mouse cursor does not appear. I am wondering how I can display the host's cursor on a headless windows machine? All of the solutions I've seen so far have been able to access the host device's hardware, but in my case, I cannot do that.

How are you tracking changes in 3rd party tools that could disrupt your CI/CD pipelines?
I am curious on how you all in the devop world keep track of SaaS application updates to keep on top of potential breaking/high impact changes.

Any 30+% discounts for Certified Kubernetes Administrator?
I'm an up-and-coming DevOps engineer and want to complete CKA certifications.
I couldn't procure enough funds during the Cyber Monday sale, hence missed the offer.
I want to do it now but I got only 50-60% of the full price. Hence looking for discounts of maybe 40-50%.
If anyone knows of any such coupons, please DM me. Would really appreciate it. Thanks
Apologies if this is not the right community to post in.

Cross-platform vs. single platform—what’s better for early apps?
I’ve been debating whether to expand my app to iOS or focus solely on Android for now. Developing for both seems like a good idea, but it’s also a lot of work for a small team.
What’s your take? Did starting with one platform work better for you, or is it smarter to go cross-platform from the beginning?

I automated myself out of my job. That's a first.
I expected it to happen at some point in my life, but not that early.
Worked at a smaller company (50 devs) - it was pure hell at the beginning.
Within about three years we fixed every problem and automated/standardized everything that might disturb the developers workflow. I tutored everyone and documented everything. We actually got the ball rolling to a really sweet spot.
The last few weeks were pure boredom. Since there were no legit projects left.
Well. Now they kicked me out of the company. Nothing left to do.
I'll get full salary for two months and don't have to work a second anymore.
WTF?

Database skills and daily tasks
Hello everyone,
How often do you get tasks or work on databases in your role? What kind of tasks are they typically?
Also, what is the expected level of database knowledge for a junior DevOps engineer? Do you have any recommendations for courses or books to learn database skills relevant to devops?
Thanks in advance!
