Digest #103: Run Any Linux Distribution Inside Your Terminal 😍

#103: Run Any Linux Distribution Inside Your Terminal

Welcome to this week's DevOps digest! Today, we'll roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty with Terraform and Packer as I walk you through the deployment of a Jenkins cluster on AWS. We'll also shed light on a 'clean code' approach to architecting Lambda functions, keeping things lightweight and efficient.

Ever wondered about managing a monorepo setup with numerous projects and Terraform modules? We'll dive into the organization and management of such complex structures, tackling deployments spanning across AWS accounts and even Azure subscriptions.

Adding a fun twist to our regular programming, I'll be guiding you through the process of learning Git by crafting your very own Git server in Python! I'll also show you the ropes of integrating the ChatGPT module into Terraform code to produce a Vault cluster.

Is Serverless overpriced? Let's see what we can learn from the experience of the PrimeVideo team. We'll also pull back the curtain on Coinbase's expenditure on Datadog, revealing how they spent more than $65M per year 😵

As always, we're featuring the most interesting open-source projects of the week. Get ready to explore Time Machine-style backups using rsync, running any Linux distribution inside your terminal, and FerretDB - a MongoDB alternative. And that's just the beginning!

Prepare to dive deep into another week of DevOps insights, tutorials, and discussions.
