What was on CatOps...
It seems to me that I have missed a week, which sometimes happens, especially in Summer. So, here’s the digest.
Charity
Time Sensitive
Some materials to prepare for Tech exams and certifications:
Digest
How Wise reduced AWS RDS maintenance downtimes from 10 minutes to 100 milliseconds - a story about improving the DB reliability at Wise.
Testing Helm Charts Part I - my article about testing of the Helm charts. You can also find it here on Substack.
Testing Helm Charts Part II - the second part of the article about Helm charts testing. This is the technical part with some practical examples. It’s also available on Substack.
Why Facebook doesn’t use Git - some history of Tech. I think such articles are important, because we could better understand how did we get to where we are now.
The graying open source community needs fresh blood - the Register is highlighting an important issue of the open source community getting older and eventually retiring.
The fate of creators of programming languages - another piece of Tech history.
CrowdStrike IT outage explained - this is not exactly the video we shared originally, but it describes, what has happened.
Anyone can Access Deleted and Private Repository Data on GitHub - how to bypass some safety measures of GitHub via forks.
Reliability Engineering Mindset - an ongoing book by Alex Ewerlöf.
That’s all for this time. Liebe Grüße aus Wien!
