How many major versions of a given Go module are there? That simple question doesn’t always have an easy-to-discover answer.

2020 was a busy year for Civo, and we couldn’t have done it, and get where we are now, without our community of users. Between the wider community, our Civo Ambassadors, and our staff team, there is an enormous amount of knowledge and skill to be found. I’d like to present some of our top cloud-native guides for the year gone by, drawn both from guides published on our site and around the web by our community of users.

2020 was a year we all will remember. The whole world got an experience like never before. At VirtualMetric we have always believed in a global team with no borders. This year almost every company joined us in the remote work approach. Despite the challenges we were surrounded by, our team had a productive year. We not only saved our entire crew but hired more talented people to our VirtualMetric family, which helped us to achieve our ambitious goals.

Sometimes, people start their DevOps journey by getting their database into source control, but then, they don’t deploy from source control. Instead, they continue their manual deployments to production. Quickly they find that the database code in their production instances and the database code in their source control system don’t match.
