Lister 2.0.0I’ve talked about my Rust project “lister” for the first time in this blog around 2 years ago, when I explained how to generate PDF files from individual Hugo entries. In the meantime I’ve enhanced it quite a bit, and this article provides some information about the latest version.
Containers for Non-Technical Readers With Podman DesktopA decade ago, when containers were the hot new thing in town, learning about them required lots of command typing on the terminal. These days, thanks to tools like Podman Desktop, the task is oh so much simpler than ever. In this article we’re going to learn some common container technology concepts, using the visual user interface of Podman Desktop to help us during the process.
Back to MonolithsSo Amazon Prime Video (of all people!) published a blog post about how they’re returning to monoliths, relayed by DHH, generating lots of noise, to the point that even Dr. Werner Vogels himself, CTO at Amazon, had to pour some thoughts about the subject.
Containers and DLL HellBack in the 1990s, shared libraries were all the rage. Instead of having to ship a 20 MB *.exe file to your customer in various floppy disks, you could cut some code out, put it in a set of *.dll files, and reuse that code across all your products. Every vendor would then install lots of DLL files in your system, and they would be reused by other apps from the same vendor.
Reusing Apps Between Teams and Environments Through ContainersThis was my speech for the WeAreDevelopers Container Day on February 3rd, 2021. The talk will feature a live demo showing how to build, optimize, and distribute containers to be reused in as many environments as possible, 100% based on the experience of the VSHN team.
Fortune AppsAs part of my work in VSHN, I lately prepared a set of demo applications ready to be containerized and deployed in our new product APPUiO Cloud.
Notes About "Cloud Without Compromise"I’ve been reading “Cloud Without Compromise: Hybrid Cloud for the Enterprise” by Paul Zikopoulos and Christopher Bienko.
First Web App in RustMy exploration of Rust continues; this week, I rewrote a Python Flask application I use for demos at work.
Starting a Typescript CLI Project from ScratchThe JavaScript ecosystem has grown dramatically in the past decade. It has become so complex, that I’ve seen many new developers interested in the subject struggle to find out where to start.
