DnsControl VS Pulumi

See RFC5507: "Why Adding a New Resource Record Type Is the Preferred Solution"

DNS providers should support a wide range of RR types, and domain owners should vote with their NS records.

See https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol/blob/master/docu... for a list of DNS providers that support CAA.

I would create an AWS account for Route53 only. No other services or resources would be deployed. To manage the DNS records I may use: https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol

How is this compared to https://dnscontrol.org/ from Stackoverflow?

Hover's DNS is very simple and bare bones. dnsimple works with dnscontrol so I can manage all my domains programatically

Have you tried dnscontrol.org? It ties into the registrar and DNS providers API's

Was typing on phone and thought that was it. This one https://docs.dnscontrol.org/ explains a bit what it does and heres its github https://github.com/StackExchange/dnscontrol

DNSControl[1] or another similar tool also helps a lot when moving. My DNS records are configured by a small JavaScript file in a git repository, and I can very easily point it at another DNS provider.

If you are following this blog series, you should already know the benefits of using Terraform to define and deploy your AWS resources and configuration. Other IaC solutions such as AWS CloudFormation, AWS CDK, and Pulumi work the same way but differs in the programming or configuration language.

Infrastructure as Code (IaC) is an important part of any true hosting operation in the public cloud. Each of these platforms has their own IaC solution, e.g. AWS CloudFormation. But they also support popular open-source IaC tools like Pulumi or Terraform. A category of tools that also needs to be discussed is API gateways and other app-specific load balancers. There are applications for internal consumption, which can be called microservices if you have a lot of them. And often microservices use advanced networking options such as a service mesh instead of just the native private network offered by a VPC.

funny, to me systemd == no docker, no containers, just a VM.

it's my goto way to keep my programming running and have it be restarted if the vm reboots. I use VMs like "pods". I deploy code directly to the VM and run it there along with other programs. I scale up an scale down with: https://www.pulumi.com/

Pulumi — Modern infrastructure as a code platform that allows you to use familiar programming languages and tools to build, deploy, and manage cloud infrastructure.

A move like this may have an impact in other open source projects. Take Pulumi, for instance, people might avoid choosing it now that the Linux Foundation have its own IaC tool, and for newer, smaller projects it will probably be impossible to compete with a project under the Linux name.

Another alternative to writing an operator would be to rely on kustomize or https://www.pulumi.com/.

Pulumi

Would it make sense to say Dagger is to Pulumi [1], as Terraform is to Togomak?

Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Define your infrastructure using code (IaC) to automate the provisioning of resources such as virtual machines, load balancers, and databases. Tools like Terraform, Pulumi, and AWS CloudFormation can help.
