A blog site on our Real life experiences with various phases of DevOps starting from VCS, Build & Release, CI/CD, Cloud, Monitoring, Containerization.
Some of the world’s largest enterprises are running their mission-critical workloads on Oracle’s next-generation cloud platform Oracle Cloud Infrastructure.
In this comprehensive guide, we’ll embark on a journey to understand the intricacies of OCI, starting with its core concepts and delving into its architecture.
In a cloud-driven environment, flexibility and security remain the top priorities for modern businesses. AWS (Amazon Web Services) provides IAM (Identity and Access Management) roles to manage access permissions inside the AWS ecosystem. But what happens when workloads, servers, applications, or containers, run outside AWS?
This is where IAM Roles Anywhere becomes a game-changer. It enables secure, temporary access for external workloads without relying on long-term credentials. This blog explores how IAM Roles Anywhere works and why it is essential for today’s distributed architectures.

Delve into the world of Cloud Platform Engineering and explore how IT services can embrace this concept to meet the ever-changing demands of the modern digital age.
Cloud-native platform engineering services aim to build and manage an infrastructure that is both scalable and flexible, such as containers, Kubernetes, and microservices, which allows applications to operate smoothly in public, private, or hybrid cloud environments. Using automation, infrastructure as code (IaC), and DevOps practices, these services streamline processes and provide self-service tools that speed deployment times while reducing cognitive load for developers.
In today’s fast-paced and ever-evolving digital landscape, Information Technology (IT) services play a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth operation of businesses across various industries. As organizations increasingly rely on technology to drive innovation, improve efficiency and stay competitive, the pressure on IT services to deliver reliable and scalable solutions has never been higher. To meet these demands, IT departments are turning to a paradigm known as “Platform Engineering.”
This transformative approach not only enhances the performance and agility of IT services but also fosters a culture of innovation, collaboration and adaptability. In this blog, we will delve into the world of Cloud Platform Engineering and explore how IT services can embrace this concept to meet the ever-changing demands of the modern digital age.
We’ll uncover the key principles, benefits and practical strategies that can empower IT teams to excel in delivering robust and adaptable solutions. So, if you’re curious about how your IT services can stay ahead in the game, read on to discover the exciting possibilities of Platform Engineering.

In the previous blog posts of this series, we learned the basics and X-DR Setup in Cassandra. Finally, we have arrived at our last phase: Cassandra migration to a newer version.
The last 2 years have been great on our database journey. We searched for the best database for our application and ended up using Cassandra. It proved to be quite fast, just what we needed for our use case. We started using Cassandra 3.1.2 which was fine but after running it for a year we realized that it was time to upgrade as, by then, v3.1.2 had lots of vulnerabilities.
Obviously, experimenting on current production was risky so we decided to go with our non-production first. We were running the same version 3.1.2 and X-DR Setup. In the previous blog, I explained the X-DR Setup you might want to refer to for proper understanding.
