  • kubernetes

    Production-Grade Container Scheduling and Management

  • Project mention: Building Scalable GraphQL Microservices With Node.js and Docker: A Comprehensive Guide | dev.to | 2024-04-10

    To learn more, you can start by exploring the official Kubernetes documentation.

  • Moby

    The Moby Project - a collaborative project for the container ecosystem to assemble container-based systems

  • Project mention: Release Radar • March 2024 Edition | dev.to | 2024-04-07

    Having been featured in our February 2023, and January 2024 Release Radars, Moby is the original Linux Container runtime. This new version adds a bunch of changes to the Docker CLI and Moby itself with additional features. There's bug fixes and enhancements, with the main thing for users to be on the look out for containers that were created using Docker Engine 25.0.0. These containers might have duplicate MAC addresses, and thus must be recreated. The same goes for those containers created with Moby 25.0+ and with user defined MAC addresses. Read up on all these changes in the release notes.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • Ansible

    Ansible is a radically simple IT automation platform that makes your applications and systems easier to deploy and maintain. Automate everything from code deployment to network configuration to cloud management, in a language that approaches plain English, using SSH, with no agents to install on remote systems. https://docs.ansible.com.

  • Project mention: Interesting Uses of Ansible's ternary filter | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-22

    They support for-if from python, too: https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/3.1.x/templates/#loop-f... but I haven't tried the "recursive" keyword to know if ansible supports that. I say "ansible supports that" because they don't just drop jinja2 into ansible and call it a draw, they have a bunch of custom execution integrations: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/v2.16.3/lib/ansible/...

  • Docker Compose

    Define and run multi-container applications with Docker

  • Project mention: Hosting a simple docker-compose app with Nginx and generate a SSL with certbot on digitalocean droplet | dev.to | 2024-04-08

    curl -fsSL https://get.docker.com -o get-docker.sh sudo sh get-docker.sh # Install docker compose sudo curl -L "https://github.com/docker/compose/releases/download/1.29.2/docker-compose-$(uname -s)-$(uname -m)" -o /usr/local/bin/docker-compose # Apply executable permissions to the binary sudo chmod +x /usr/local/bin/docker-compose # Run Project docker-compose up -d

  • letsencrypt

    Certbot is EFF's tool to obtain certs from Let's Encrypt and (optionally) auto-enable HTTPS on your server. It can also act as a client for any other CA that uses the ACME protocol.

  • minikube

    Run Kubernetes locally

  • Project mention: Building Llama as a Service (LaaS) | dev.to | 2024-04-08

    With the containerized Node.js/Express API, I could run multiple containers, scaling to handle more traffic. Using a tool called minikube, we can easily spin up a local Kubernetes cluster to horizontally scale Docker containers. It was possible to keep one shared instance of the database, and many APIs were routed with an internal Kubernetes load balancer.

  • k3s

    Lightweight Kubernetes

  • Project mention: Linux fu: getting started with systemd | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-14

    For self-hosting I've found https://k3s.io to be really good from the SUSE people. Works on basically any Linux distro and makes self-hosting k8s not miserable.

  • 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.

  • Vagrant

    Vagrant is a tool for building and distributing development environments.

  • Project mention: Software Company HashiCorp Is Weighing a Potential Sale | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-16

    on the off chance one hasn't been tracking it, there were several "we don't need your stinking BuSL" projects when this drama first started:

    https://github.com/opentofu#why-opentofu (Terraform)

    https://github.com/openbao/openbao#readme (Vault)

    and I know of several attempts at Vagrant <https://github.com/hashicorp/vagrant/forks> but I don't believe one of them has caught traction yet

    There are also some who have talked about an "open Nomad" but since I don't play in that space I can't speak to it

  • k6

    A modern load testing tool, using Go and JavaScript - https://k6.io

  • Project mention: K6: A modern load testing tool, using Go and JavaScript | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-01-08
  • Vegeta

    HTTP load testing tool and library. It's over 9000!

  • Project mention: Netlify just sent me a $104K bill for a simple static site | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-26

    Vegeta worth a look if you want something a bit more sophisticated: https://github.com/tsenart/vegeta

  • Hey

    HTTP load generator, ApacheBench (ab) replacement (by rakyll)

  • Project mention: Data API for Amazon Aurora Serverless v2 with AWS SDK for Java - Part 5 Basic cold and warm starts measurements | dev.to | 2024-04-08

    The results of the experiment to retrieve the existing product from the database by its id see GetProductByIdViaAuroraServerlessV2DataApiHandler with Lambda function with 1024 MB memory setting were based on reproducing more than 100 cold and approximately 10.000 warm starts with experiment which ran for approximately 1 hour. For it (and experiments from my previous article) I used the load test tool hey, but you can use whatever tool you want, like Serverless-artillery or Postman. We won't enable SnapStart on the Lambda function first.

  • Packer

    Packer is a tool for creating identical machine images for multiple platforms from a single source configuration.

  • Project mention: The 2024 Web Hosting Report | dev.to | 2024-02-20

    To manage a VM, you can use something as simple as just manual actions over SSH, or can use tools like Ansible, Hashicorp's Packer and Terraform or other automations. For an app where there is minimal load and security/reliability concern, VMs are still a great option that provide a lot of value for the buck

  • Fabric

    Simple, Pythonic remote execution and deployment. (by fabric)

  • xg2xg

    by ex-googlers, for ex-googlers - a lookup table of similar tech & services

  • Project mention: An ex-Googler's guide to dev tools | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-28

    What about Mendel and Streamz? I don't see those in https://github.com/jhuangtw/xg2xg

  • Logstash

    Logstash - transport and process your logs, events, or other data

  • SaltStack

    Software to automate the management and configuration of any infrastructure or application at scale. Get access to the Salt software package repository here:

  • Project mention: Looking for a way to remote in to K's of raspberry pi's... | /r/sysadmin | 2023-12-10
  • kind

    Kubernetes IN Docker - local clusters for testing Kubernetes

  • Project mention: How to distribute workloads using Open Cluster Management | dev.to | 2024-01-26

    To get started, you'll need to install clusteradm and kubectl and start up three Kubernetes clusters. To simplify cluster administration, this article starts up three kind clusters with the following names and purposes:

  • Capistrano

    A deployment automation tool built on Ruby, Rake, and SSH.

  • Project mention: Ask HN: Deploying my project on multiple servers? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-07-28

    If you don't want to go down the NFS share route then Capistrano is a useful tool if you're willing to write a little bit of ruby. It comes with some built in goodies like rollbacks. It's an oldie (pre-dockerize everything), but still useful.

    https://github.com/capistrano/capistrano

    You can start by deploying from your machine to simultaneously get it deploying across all your servers, then I'd consider having a CI/CD pipeline take over and run Capistrano for you.

  • lynis

    Lynis - Security auditing tool for Linux, macOS, and UNIX-based systems. Assists with compliance testing (HIPAA/ISO27001/PCI DSS) and system hardening. Agentless, and installation optional.

  • Project mention: Who does check linux distros of malware - open source | /r/linux | 2023-12-10

    Linux has (free) tools to improve security and detect/remove malware: Lynis,Chkrootkit,Rkhunter,ClamAV,Vuls,LMD,radare2,Yara,ntopng,maltrail,Snort,Suricata...

  • yq

    yq is a portable command-line YAML, JSON, XML, CSV, TOML and properties processor

  • Project mention: Show HN: Flatito, grep for YAML and JSON files | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-03-25

    What I often use to just get the full key paths is yq (https://github.com/mikefarah/yq), piping into grep when necessary

      yq -o=props 

  • kubeshark

    The API traffic analyzer for Kubernetes providing real-time K8s protocol-level visibility, capturing and monitoring all traffic and payloads going in, out and across containers, pods, nodes and clusters. Inspired by Wireshark, purposely built for Kubernetes

  • Project mention: Show HN: Alaz: Open-Source, Self-Hosted, eBPF-Based K8s Monitoring | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-09-06

    The one similar product I had come across is Kubeshark (https://github.com/kubeshark/kubeshark). But admittedly the eBPF way seems more performant theoretically (given you can afford to have a modern-enough kernel). I'm really excited to see how this project develops out.

    The eBPF-mode of innovation is pretty exciting, truly a fresh lens to building software. I'm also following Akita Software - the company building an eBPF paradigm of monitoring.

  • psutil

    Cross-platform lib for process and system monitoring in Python

  • Project mention: Single Window Mode when Firefox is already launched with -profile "my_profile" parameter | /r/firefox | 2023-04-20

    fyi: python + https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil is pretty portable

  • webhook

    webhook is a lightweight incoming webhook server to run shell commands

  • Project mention: Telegram bots for server control | /r/selfhosted | 2023-05-14

    Try this awesome tool https://github.com/adnanh/webhook and you can make any bot you wish
