As a fast-moving startup, you don’t have the luxury of spending days figuring out exactly what you need in a Kubernetes cluster. We’ve been there. To help out, we wrote a whole ebook on the blueprint we followed as we built and deployed our own web app in Kubernetes.
Every Puppet practitioner can appreciate the wealth of information stored inside PuppetDB. Although Puppet Enterprise console offers some insights into the data, we sometimes need rich dashboards, possibilities to correlate data about facts, nodes and reports and drill-down features. In short, we wish there were a way to unleash the full power of PuppetDB data to create situational awareness about our estate. This article will show that PowerBI is a very powerful companion to PuppetDB.

Information security (infosec) is a broad field. Its practitioners behave more like artists than engineers. After all, the mandate for security is not “do X”, but instead “ensure no one can do X, Y, Z, ɑ, β, ɣ, etc.”. The array of possibilities leading to infosec failure are vast. It’s like trying to prove a negative, thus making the task near impossible. On one hand we have an impossible task, on the other we have the affordance of time.
