Looking for a logging/alerting solution
We have an AWS-based product with a small but growing number of customers. It’s a niche product; the maximum number of customers we’re expected to ever acquire is in the low hundreds. We have a hand-rolled alerting solution at present but it needs overhauling and is going to be replaced with a COTS product.
One of our key requirements is that we have a lot of customer-based metrics that we want to monitor/alert on. For example, one part of our system processes incoming documents and we have a queue-depth per customer of “documents to process”. Pseudocode for inserting these metrics would be:
insert-metric --metric-name document-queue --tag “environment:prod” --tag “customer:customerA” --value 0
insert-metric --metric-name document-queue --tag “environment:prod” --tag “customer:customerB” --value 100
insert-metric --metric-name document-queue --tag “environment:prod” --tag “customer:customerC” --value 0
We would then want to define an alert that says “if document-queue is over 1000 for a 5-minute window, generate an alert containing the environment, customer name and queue depth”.
Alerting by customer is important to the boss because he wants to know if there is an issue, exactly which customers are affected so he can personally reach out to them if required.
We have approximately 25 other metrics to monitor, some of which have more “tags” e.g.
insert-metric --metric-name outstanding-async-jobs --tag “environment:prod” --tag “customer:customerA” --tag “job_type:asset_report” --tag “job_id:12345” --value 123
We started off looking at cloudwatch but we’d need to create alarms for each environment/customer/metric combination and the costs would start to pile up as well. Even if we automate the alarm creation it doesn't make sense for us to have to create a bunch of new alarms every time we acquire a new customer.
In summary, our requirements are:
1. Support many custom metrics with alarms, without having to create the alarms for every “tag” up-front
2. Support synthetic monitoring of web UI and REST API
3. Cheaper than cloudwatch :)
4. If it can be managed via Terraform, even better
We started looking at Datadog, New Relic etc. but their marketing-websites and pricing pages are a bit impenetrable unless you understand their product well. Given our (relatively simple) requirements, does anyone have a recommendation?

Formulate DevOps questions differently.
Hi folks
Could any of you make bottom questions easier for me.
I do not understand what should be in content, what should I focus on.
I just know that the content of questions must be practically applicable.
If you know a link where I can learn more about practical application of DevOps in an organization is also welcome.
Q 1. Provide a description of a current value stream that you identify within your organization, including a classification of the process activities.
Q 2. Make an analysis of the current situation. What is going well now and what could be improved, taking into account what you think are relevant and elementary DevOps aspects?
Q 3. Map out the desired situation, indicate what the most ideal situation is and what you think is the highest achievable within your organization.
Q 4. Give a brief description of how you intend to optimize the situation outlined using DevOps.

User Telemetry on OSS project? PRO or CONS?
I'm trying to figure out how to have more information on who is using my open-source project.
Until now I have only the download metrics on how many people downloaded a certain version of my App, but I still no have any evidence on how many users are using it daily?
Could it be seen badly if some sort of Anonymous analytics will be added to the Desktop App?
PS: I explain better my project, it is an Electron Desktop App for developers, and with some Analytics I can retrieve very useful information that can impact the UX/UI side.
Furthermore, some of those analytics can help me in prioritizing some features.

Pomerium now supports internal access for any TCP-based application or service such as, SSH, RDP, or any Databses like Redis, MySQL, Postgres! And as with with HTTP, every session is authenticated, authorized, and encrypted. This has been one of the most requested features since the project's genesis.

So if I have a service with long configurable yaml, I want to help my users with a UI that helps them to generate the yaml. You know, like the Swagger tools.
Do you know such as tool/library? That I can give it a schema and it will create a form to generate the yaml file?

Devops Career - stuck in mediocre companies
Hi,
I've been devops engineer working with AWS: mainly containers with ECS, terraform iaac, ci/cd with Gitlab,etc. However, I feel that I've been stuck in jobs that are not that great. I will go through my job history:
1. Joined as a devops engineer in a big corporation. My team was basically responsible for creating IAM users/ policies/ etc. There were some interesting projects but most of the job was very boring and slow moving. However, the nice part was that we were a team of devops engineers and all could learn and share experiences and it was good as a junior engineer.
2. Joined a scale-up style company. I was placed as a single devops engineer in a team of backend developers and was responsible for modernizing the infrastructure. It was very challenging and interesting task I was communicating with developers and suggesting the best tools in AWS to use for the job: SQS for asynchronous communication, Cloudfront with s3 for fronted deployment,etc. I liked the job, however after modernizing all the infrastructure, creating ci/cd pipelines, monitoring with cloudwatch I didn't have enough to do, also my manager was not very supportive.
3. This leads to my current job. I joined the small company that deploy one project to the cloud and didn't have a devops engineer before. It was very challenging but interesting at first: all of the infrastructure were manually provisioned using aws console, deployments were not automated and were failing all the time. So I had to do everything myself in a moving system. However, after 8 months I was done with creating IaaC using terraform, CI using gitlab, etc. With AWS ecs containers there is also not much work, our system has very stable traffic so no autoscalling is needed, also we only deploy to production every couple of months.
I'm thinking I should start looking for a new job soon because it feels that my career is not progressing forwards. The last two jobs looks like could have been done by consulting companies not a permanent devops position. I mostly enjoy solving engineering problems. However, in current job I don't feel challenged at all. What should I look for when finding a new role? Do you have any tips?
Thanks!

Helm Umbrella charts and ArgoCD/Flux
Hi everyone,
Current setup
60 microservices
Helm umbrella chart, all microservices as subcharts
​
I would like to move to the 'GitOps' model where the developer would use a PR to change the version of an image/Chart and that would be reflected in the environment.
​
1. Can I use ArgoCD/Flux v2 with my existing Helm umbrella chart (with its subcharts) or do I have to add individual helm charts in each of the 60 microservices repos?
2. Will the microservices be displayed as one app or the tools will figure out there are 60 of them?
3. Anyone have a similar case they tried out? Which one (argo/flux) worked best for this scenario

React App Slow Startup Time in Docker Container on k8s
This maybe better suited for a react sub but wanted to start asking infra folks.
I'm experiencing very slow start up times for a production webapp built with react in a docker container. Base image is node:14.2.0-alpine3.10. Experiencing maybe 5 minute avg startup time in a deployed container on kubernetes. Locally around 5m as well.
Does this seem reasonable for anyone else deploying react applications in docker? Even testing locally the startup time for my react app feels atrocious. Looking for any optimization tips for the container or resources to try to improve these times.

SigNoz - Open-source alternative to DataDog. Would love some feedback!
Hi r/devops
Wanted some feedback on our project to build an open source alternative to DataDog.
In my past roles, I spent a lot of time debugging issues in production.

Hence, we thought of building an end to end open-source product with seamless integration of metrics & traces.

Running docker from scripts
I'd like to set up my pipeline so that I can run most of it on my own machine. I've noticed that most of the CI systems use their own config syntax to define running containers -- I was thinking about using docker-in-docker so that my own code spins up the various dependency services.
Is this a terrible idea for any reason? I'm surprised I haven't seen more people do it that way. I don't particularly dislike the yaml config syntax, but AFAIK none of the CI platforms have local running as a first-class feature, so I always end up duplicating stuff. Take running integration tests, for instance: I need to spin up my application along with some related services. I've got a script that does this locally, for development, and then the yaml that does it in CI. They get out of sync over time, and it's kinda awkward.

Encrypted Registry Account Credentials with Codeship and Github Container Registry
Hi everyone,
apologies of this has been asked before.
I have been going through the documentation for codeship to see if I can pull an image for docker from a private github container registry (GHCR) when I am automating my build process.
The documentation specifies docker registries but nothing for the GHCR.
Has anyone used Codeship to pull docker images from the GHCR?
The documentation specifies that the most common way authenticate with image registries is to provide your account credentials via an encrypted dockercfg file. The example is as follows:
(sorry about the indentation)
This file will later be encrypted as per the instructions in the docs which can be found here
I was wondering if anyone has used this for GHCR, and if they have my question is whether one can simply replace the URL with the GHCR URL and pass it the email and personal access token used to access the packages or in this case images in the GHCR?

Hi! I've been unemployed for a while now and I'm looking to get back into the working space.
I have chosen a government funded .NET coding bootcamp that I am planning on following. Now, as I might have expected the government services are not really premium quality service and it's taking forever to hear from these people. I am therefor planning on maybe pursuing a career as a devops engineer.
I have had multiple job offerings for devops engineer positions because of my Linux experience and my home python coding projects, but I am hesitant to go into devops. I am well aware that Devops people have to code as well, but I am only seeing things like ansible and terraform scripts as "coding", with some bash en python on the side. What I was looking for in coding is more like back-end coding (writing program logic, managing databases,..) and maybe some scripting as wel (terraform, ansible). I wonder if going into devops will give me a lot of opportunities to do the back-end stuff as well, instead of only scripts with IaC tools and automation.
I don't know if I'm making sense or if people will understand what I mean, English is my second language and I'm often not very good at explaining myself. XD But I thought I would give it a shot on this SR anyway. Thanks!

What would be the best way to automate android mobile device to turn on smart lights on and off?
Workflow
Pair Android device with RPI through an app (GE, Philips)
Pair smart bulb to RPI BLE using the app
Turn smart bulb on and off continuously from the app.
​
Trying to check BLE connectivity by using the app to ensure, the app is not the cause of packet delivery/scanning etc... While having multiple beacons advertising near by.
Was thinking about learning Appium but not sure if this is the most efficient way.
Thanks!
