Four Main Metrics of Prometheus

Let’s first understand what Prometheus is:

Prometheus is an open-source monitoring solution built primarily for gathering and analyzing time-series data, with specific built-in tools making it appropriate for monitoring Kubernetes and other containerized environments. It is a cross-platform monitoring tool that lets you collect metrics from servers, containers, and applications and work with them all in the same way.

Now let’s understand Prometheus Architecture to know how it works:

Prometheus is a multi-component system. While the following integrates into a Prometheus deployment, there is flexibility in which of these pieces are actually implemented.

Records Creation in Azure DNS from AKS ExternalDNS

Using Kubernetes for CI Build Jobs and Generic Processing Tasks - Part 2 -  Incredibuild

Have you ever thought to create the DNS records automatically (like: A record, AAAA record and TXT record etc.) in the DNS Zones of Azure cloud from the kubernetes cluster’s yaml manifests (to be specific the External DNS) ?

NO ?

So don’t worry guys because i have done it and i thought i should share this experience with you guys. This is not limited to Azure cloud DNS Zones, It will work with AWS Route 53, Google cloud DNS, AWS cloud map and many more to mention here.

Now let me introduce you guys to the particular objects of this setup then next we will move forward to know How to setup these objects.

So let’s go………….

Kafka’s Solution : Event Driven Architecture: OTKafkaDiaries

Heroism often results as a response to extreme events.

James Geary

Event Driven Architecture:

Modern digital businesses work in real-time based events. Event-driven architecture is based on the design principle which follows loose-coupling and message-driven architecture. This Architecture helps to publish events/messages that applications and services can consume, and then perform an action based upon those events.

Where are we Today?

Back in the days when we started implementing microservices, were focused more on service decoupling, communication, and security which we were going to handle in such a system.

SOA vs. Microservices Architecture – The Much-Hyped Debate!

Introduction

The debate of “which is the right kind of software architecture?” has always been in the air. As a consequence, we do harbor doubts when it comes to picking sides or making decisions.

This blog is going to brush up on the basics surrounding SOA and Microservices Architecture.
Before we begin discussing the similarities and differences between SOA and Microservices Architecture, let us first understand – Continue reading “SOA vs. Microservices Architecture – The Much-Hyped Debate!”

DevSecOps Best Practices for Secured & Fast Delivery

DevSecOps is the integration of security into the DevOps lifecycle and its practices.

According to Gartner, over 70% of enterprise DevSecOps initiatives adopted automated vulnerability and configuration scanning by 2023, a massive jump from less than 30% in 2019. This highlights the growing importance of DevSecOps in building secure, scalable, and resilient systems.

This statement emphasizes a few critical security DevOps practices for ensuring secure and bug-free product delivery. Let’s take a closer look at some of the relevant approaches for embedding security checks in the DevOps lifecycle. Continue reading “DevSecOps Best Practices for Secured & Fast Delivery”
