  • crates.io-index

    Registry index for crates.io

    • [[package]] name = "prometheus" version = "0.12.0" source = "registry+https://github.com/rust-lang/crates.io-index" checksum = "5986aa8d62380092d2f50f8b1cdba9cb9b6731ffd4b25b51fd126b6c3e05b99c" dependencies = [ "cfg-if 1.0.0", "fnv", "lazy_static", "libc", "memchr", "parking_lot 0.11.2", "procfs 0.9.1", "protobuf", "thiserror", ]

  • procfs

    Rust library for reading the Linux procfs filesystem (by eminence)

    • 256: we expected to have a patch in u8, whereas the max of a u8 is 255, so we needed at least a u16. (https://github.com/eminence/procfs/pull/140).

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • semver

    Semantic Versioning Specification

    • Unfortunately, this library wasn't expecting to have numbers higher than 255, and SemVer discussion about this topic doesn't look to be simple: https://github.com/semver/semver/issues/304.

  • engine

    The Orchestration Engine To Deliver Self-Service Infrastructure Faster ⚡️ (by Qovery)

    • We decided not to remove Prometheus lib, because at Qovery, it's not only used for observability purposes but also to manage the Kubernetes Horizontal Pod Autoscaler (HPA). It helps us to absorb a load of infrastructure changes automatically and scale accordingly to the number of Engines for deployment requests:

  • rust-prometheus

    Prometheus instrumentation library for Rust applications

    • [dependencies] prometheus = { git = "https://github.com/tikv/rust-prometheus", rev = "ac86a264223c8d918a43e739ca3c48bb4aaedb90", features = ["process"] }

  • terraform-provider-aws

    The AWS Provider enables Terraform to manage AWS resources.

    • At this time, it was a headache for people using Terraform (like Qovery) who wanted to upgrade from a previous version and "Terraform AWS provider" developers. AWS understood their mistake as they recently removed 6.x and switched back to SemVer format (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonElastiCache/latest/red-ug/SelectEngine.html). And, so...here we go again on the "Terraform AWS provider" on GitHub: https://github.com/hashicorp/terraform-provider-aws/issues/22385
