Anyone running #Xen or #KVM with #Glusterfs as a backing infrastructure for virtualized #kubernetes? Planning a small #homelab and looking for ideas/gotchas. (For instance, I'm not married to GlusterFS. I may end up going a different route if something better exists).
While I'm asking, anyone running #HomeAssistant on #k8s? Thoughts or suggestions there? (I'm currently running HA on a dedicated desktop machine, but considering repurposing that machine as a k8s worker, assuming migrating HA into k8s isn't crazy painful).
Since quay.io is down, now is a good time to remind tech folks of reimage. You can use it as a helm post-renderer, it'll copy images from the random wilderness into your own OCI registry, and avoid runtime dependence on the likes of quay and dockerhub
Whenever I see a #Kubernetes post that starts with “it’s too complicated or it doesn’t solve any problems”, I can’t help but roll my eyes a bit.
Do you need to use it? No, but if you do adopt it, it allows for effectively unlimited growth with none of the maintenance that drags down conventional infrastructure teams. No OS upgrades, no host maintenance, no writing ansible, no baking AMIs, etc.
It has a cost, but it’s baffling to say “there’s nothing of value here”. It’s a force multiplier that lets small teams grow to virtually unlimited size using identical tooling that is industry wide, making hiring and training easier.
@matdevdug You may choose to hide that stuff away if you choose EKS or GKS, but it's still very much necessary.
You may not have to bake AMIs in that case, but you still have to bake Docker images.
And in those Docker images you still have to worry about OS updates.
Yes, #k8s has value, but it also has a cost.
@matdevdug Baking Docker images is not required, q.v. AWS Lambda, Heroku, Netlify Edge Functions, CloudFlare Workers etc.
It's only required if you've bought into #k8s.
Started importing the last ~70 tweets into #mastodon of my #kubernetes / #k8s home lab/cluster, it's causing some interesting traffic spikes up to 0.5Mbit. Probably because I'm on some relays on top of normal followers. #activitypub is pretty cool!
Is it possible to make #mastodon write its temporary files to somewhere else other than /opt/mastodon? For example, the pull queue has jobs which download images etc to /opt/mastodon before being uploaded to S3 etc.
I tried setting PAPERCLIP_ROOT_PATH but that didn't seem to work.
The .NET Monitor team would like to gauge community interest in the use of Kubernetes mutating admission webhook to aid in simplifying your Kubernetes deployments. #dotnet#dotnetmonitor#aks#k8s
I have installed a local version of LibreTranslate and added the right env var, I can see that translation has been enabled, but not seeing the "translate" link in posts yet.
Has anybody setup LibreTranslate on Kubernates with Mastodon? I've set the LIBRE_TRANSLATE_ENDPOINT to the service name but I'm getting "503 Remote data could not be fetched" errors.
Enlightening, isn't it? There are other empty blocks, but they are either fairly standard or are described elsewhere in the document.
If you are familiar with #helm, you won't despair because you have the power of analytics.enabled: false. That works on the rest of this chart and is the standard way to en/disable things.
It doesn't work that way.
Let me save you some time with the terrible new #github code search. Here is the actual syntax:
"analytics.reporting_enabled: false"
Nearly 500 subscribers on the YouTube channel now. I know that doesn't sound much - but it's early 500 more than I had 6 months ago when I decided to start it! The next goal will be 1000! Shares for reach are greatly appreciated! 🙂🙏 https://www.youtube.com/@danclarkeuk/videos#dotnet#k8s#docker
Did anyone try to use #systemd nspawn as OCI runtime with #kubernetes ? Is there some usable guide how to set this easily to try out? #k8s#systemdnspawn
First part of a new long term home project coming in. An #Ubiquiti PoE+ switch to power a small #Kubernetes cluster built using #raspberrypi nodes. Going to blog about every step once it has been completed. But it is going to be a few quarters long project doing bit by bit
If the experiments with https://www.talos.dev/ are positive, it will replace k3os. One of big plusses is that this is #k8s and not #k3s so I should be able to use the clusterautoscaler for autoscaling. Which needs some code to work with #unifi switches.
