Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Can any Hetzner user, please explain there workflow on Hetzner?
We use Docker Swarm for our deployments, so I will answer the questions based on that.
We have built some tooling around setting up and maintaining the swarm using ansible [0]. We also added some Hetzner flavour to that [1] which allows us to automatically spin up completely new clusters in a really short amount of time.
deploy from source repo:
- We use Azure DevOps pipelines that automate deployments based on environment configs living in an encrypted state in Git repos. We use [2] and [3] to make it easier to organize the deployments using `docker stack deploy` under the hood.
keep software up to date:
- We are currently looking into CVE scanners that export into prometheus to give us an idea of what we should update
load balancing:
- depending on the project, Hetzner LB or Cloudflare
handle scaling:
- manually, but i would love to build some autoscaler for swarm that interacts with our tooling [0] and [1]
automate backups:
- docker swarm cronjobs either via jobs with restart condition and a delay or [4]
maintain security:
- Hetzner LB is front facing. Communication is done via encrypted networks inside Hetzner private cloud networks

How do you deploy your side-projects?
Pretty much the same as our goto for projects at work: Hetzner + Docker (Swarm) with some Ansible to orchestrate things
We have built some automation around cluster management over at https://github.com/neuroforgede/swarmsible.
I used to do everything in ansible, but Docker Stacks are just so much nicer to use.
In any case automation is king. I don't have to remember stuff if I can just look at some IaC Code :).

Docker Swarm with compose
Our tooling can be found here https://github.com/neuroforgede/swarmsible . It is not yet documented tbh, but most things are pretty straight forward to use if you have used ansible, docker etc already.

Ask HN: Have You Left Kubernetes?
Story of one of the projects I am involved in:
We came from Ansible managed deployments of vanilla docker with nginx as single node ingress with another load balancer on top of that.
Worked fine, but HA for containers that are only allowed to exist once in the stack was one thing that caused us headaches.
Then, we had a workshop for Rancher RKE. Looked promising at the start, but operating it became a headache as we didn't have enough people in the project team to maintain it. Certificates expiring was an issue and the fact that you actually kinda had to baby-sit the cluster was a turn off.
We killed the switch to kubernetes.
In the meantime we were toying around with Docker Swarm for smaller scale deployments and inhouse infrastructure. We didn't find anything to not like and are currently moving into that direction.
How we do things in Swarm:
1. Monitoring using an updated Swarmprom stack (https://github.com/neuroforgede/swarmsible/tree/master/envir...)
- Container / host monitoring strategy?
- I ported swarmprom to all new docker image versions - It still works just fine!

netdata is suddenly reporting 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day
We run netdata to have a bit of insight into whats happening on the 10+ dedicated servers in Falkenstein. So far we have seen a 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable about once a month. Suddenly we get 1hour_ecc_memory_correctable like every day from different servers. Any ideas why that could be happening?

μMon: Stupid simple monitoring
hey - I work on ML at Netdata (disclaimer).
We have a big PR open and under review at moment that brings in a lot more logs capabilities: https://github.com/netdata/netdata/pull/13291
We also have some specific logs collectors too - i think in here might be best place to look around at the moment, should take you to the logs part of the integrations section in our demo space (no login needed, sorry for the long horrible url, we adding this section to our docs soon but at moment only lives in the app)
