consul VS Rundeck

The JHipster scaffolded sample application has a gateway application and two microservices. It uses Consul for service discovery and centralized configuration.

Service Discovery: Microservices need to discover and communicate with each other dynamically. Service discovery tools like etcd, Consul, or Kubernetes built-in service discovery mechanisms help locate and connect to microservices running on different nodes within the infrastructure.

After some research and testing, I landed on using Consul and Fabio as the demo infrastructure. Of course, there is a myriad of other options to accomplish this task, but because of the low configuration and ease of use, I was impressed with this pairing. Both projects are mature and well-supported, and very flexible--just because you can run them with low configuration, doesn't mean you have to. I wanted to keep this demo constrained, but the exercise did get me excited about exploring things further: circuit breakers, traffic splitting, and more complex service meshes.

The goal is to be able to use Consul SD configurations to allow for retrieving scrape targets from consul. Is this possible? Can anyone provide an example? Thank you!!

The Consul collector is production ready! Consul by HashiCorp is a powerful and complex identity-based networking solution, which is not trivial to monitor. We were lucky to have the assistance of HashiCorp itself in this endeavor, which resulted in a monitoring solution of exceptional quality. Look for common blog posts and announcements in the coming weeks!

Changed the service discovery to Consul, since this is the default in JHipster 8.

In another effort to standardize development and operations, Lob has just wrapped up our container orchestration migration from Convox to HashiCorp’s Nomad, led by Senior Platform Engineer Elijah Voigt. In this new ecosystem, one feature available to us is Consul Service Mesh (a feature of Consul, which is part of our Lob Nomad stack).

I don't use it myself, but I think rundeck might be what you're looking for

Have a look at rundeck.org

Not possible at this moment, please suggest that here.

Hi, that's an odd issue (never happened on my env, but reported here), you can try this or this.

If you want a web panel, I believe you could achieve that with Rundeck.

I found this info here and here.

Changing default SCM SSH authentication to SSHJ: The SCM integration now uses SSHJ for SSH authentication by default (previously JSCH). GitHub has tightened up their SSH key requirements and now requires SSH-RSA 2 keys. The new default for ssh-keygen via OpenSSH is not supported by JSCH.

Firstly, I tried Rundeck and Apache Airflow. They are complete overkill for what I want to do. Then I found Cronicle which is light enough, besides it can pull double duty as a general purpose scheduler.

Yesterday we posted a Security Advisory to Github for a critical vulnerability in Rundeck Community and Rundeck Enterprise Docker images, versions 4.0 and earlier. Those Docker images contained a pre-generated SSH key pair in the default file path. If that key was used to configure SSH access to hosts, they would allow access to anyone with the exposed private key.
