Operations | Monitoring | ITSM | DevOps | Cloud

Back in July I published Encountering some turbulence on Bitbucket's journey to a new platform, sharing with the public for the first time that Bitbucket Cloud is in the final stages of a migration from our data center onto Atlassian's cloud platform—the same internal platform underlying Jira Cloud, Confluence Cloud, Statuspage, and many other internal services. I also shared that because of increased file system latency as a result of this platform move, certain operations have become slower.

Current IT monitoring software lacks the necessary metrics for minimizing downtime for systems and applications. Most provide system and application metrics but there is much more than this required for properly monitoring your infrastructure. With eBPF there is a technological advancement that allows monitoring software to provide rich information from the Linux kernel and present it.

If you are using HAProxy 2.0 or newer, it is important that you update to the latest version. A vulnerability was found that makes it possible to abuse the HTTP/2 parser, allowing an attacker to prepend hostnames to a request, append top-level domains to an existing domain, and inject invalid characters through the :method pseudo-header.

The 2020 SolarWinds® IT Pro Day survey looked at the changing roles and responsibilities of IT pros throughout the pandemic. Overall, nearly two-thirds of surveyed IT pros discovered a new sense of confidence, despite contending with challenges such as reduced budgets, greater decision-making responsibilities, and longer hours caused by their organizations’ response to the pandemic.

Do you frequently find yourself typing a long command on the command line or checking the bash history for a command you've already typed? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, bash aliases will come in helpful. You can use aliases in Bash to create a shortcut command for a longer command. When working on the command line, bash aliases are essentially shortcuts that can save you time and effort by eliminating the need to remember long commands.

12 years ago, when I started to work as a Developer, I would not have bet that I will write software and manage infrastructure right from my browser one day. At the time, web IDE did not exist. And managing infrastructure from the browser was super early. Today, it is all possible, and the future looks bright! I am proud to announce that you can edit your code via GitHub Codespaces right from Qovery. Take a look at this short introduction video. Happy coding!
