This is the second post in a three-part retrospective on teaching CS 40. With 50 students enrolled in CS 40 in Winter 2024 and only three members of the teaching staff, we knew that we would need to automate as much of the course management as possible. Given how novel our course material was, this necessitated building a lot of custom infrastructure, both for students to use, and for us to manage the course.| saligrama.io
Infrastructure-from-Code (IfC) is a new way of thinking about cloud infrastructure, and represents the next step in a line of innovations that makes spinning up infrastructure easier and more seamless for developers. In this article, we’ll talk about where the state of the industry is today, and where we think it’s going next.| Klotho
It’s becoming more and more popular to manage and operate everything in code, whether it’s infrastructure, configuration, security, policies, pipelines, operations, compliance or even documentation. This blog post will highlight the different “As Code” trends with examples| Klotho

If you have played an MMORPG then you know the feeling of starting out in a new game. Your character is level one. You have a vast open world to explore, and there are tons of game systems and gear and skills to learn about.| nathanpeck.com
Back in 2017 I wrote an article about choosing your container environment on AWS. AWS Fargate and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service had just launched at AWS re:Invent, joining the preexisting Amazon Elastic Container Service.| nathanpeck.com
The architecture of the infrastructure-as-code (IaC) tooling you use will determine the level to which your IaC definitions are exposed to bit rot. This is a maxim I have arrived at after working with multiple IaC tool sets, both professionally and personally, over the last few years. In this blog post, I will explain how I arrived at this maxim by describing three architectural patterns for IaC tools, each with differing levels of risk for bit rot.| packetmischief.ca
I've written before about how I use MediaWiki for taking notes and as one of my study tools. This has worked well for many years. But a problem started to develop: while I wrote my technical notes in MediaWiki, I wrote my day-to-day notes (books I want to read, notes from podcasts I listen to, and even my weekly planner) in Notion. This meant I had to use different apps for reading/writing in each tool, remember two different markup languages, and couldn't (cleanly) link pieces of content bet...| packetmischief.ca

+ tl;dr - Steps on how to set up SES with Pulumi (their brand new logo is the one above), an infrastructure-as-code (written in code) solution. Skip to the end for all the code, all at once UPDATE (08/16/2021) SES no longer requires separate domain identitify verification -- this is now integrated with the DKIM records you build for SES. You do not need the aws.ses.DomainIdentityVerification Pulumi object at all anymore -- the post has been updated to reflect that.| vadosware.io

tl;dr - Manual SSH, then automated SSH (ex. Ansible) and friends (Salt/Puppet/Chef), Cloud-init (AKA cram-it-in-userData), pre-built VMs (ex. Packer), infrastructure-as-code (CloudFormation, Terraform, Pulumi, etc) and finally containers and container orchestrators (ex. Kubernetes, Nomad) The trends in application deployment have been pretty identifiable over the years and I rarely see it discussed so I figured I’d take a stab. I gave a similar but different presentation in the past on the ...| vadosware.io
