the cloud provider’s Custom Images feature allows you to bring your virtual disk images from an on-premise environment or another cloud platform to the cloud provider and use them to start cloud servers. As described in…
Along with tracing and logging, monitoring and alerting are essential components of a Kubernetes observability stack. Setting up monitoring for your Kubernetes cluster allows you to gain insight into your resource usage and helps you analyze and debug application errors. A…
It doesn’t matter if you’re running a small blog, a large application, or an API; you never want it to be offline. A single point of failure is any part of your infrastructure that will cause downtime if it fails. A highly available infrastructure has no single point of failure. A highly available configuration is not only important for redundancy. It will also be faster and more cost effective to scale your infrastructure as well.
the cloud provider Blueprints provide you with fast and flexible infrastructure to support you as you scale. You can leverage and incorporate Blueprints as part of your development workflow to spend more time crafting code and less time setting up your infrastructure.
Heartbeat is an open source program that provides cluster infrastructure capabilities—cluster membership and messaging—to client servers, which is a critical component in a high availability (HA) server infrastructure. Heartbeat is typically used in conjunction with a cluster resource manager (CRM), such as Pacemaker, to achieve a complete HA setup. However, in this tutorial, we will demonstrate how to create a 2-node HA server setup by simply using Heartbeat and a the cloud provider Reserved IP.
object storage is an object storage solution, ideal for unstructured data such as audio, video, images or large amounts of text. To learn more about Spaces and object storage, you can read through [An Introduction to the cloud provider…
This is the first hands-on portion of the book. First, we’ll go over the tools we’ll be using, how they fit together, and how they can be beneficial to you as you begin to create and manage your infrastructure on the cloud provider. Then, we’ll set up a single Droplet which we’ll use as as a controller to run and use the rest of our tool belt.
Backing up important data is an essential part of managing any computer infrastructure. In this tutorial, we will build a script around the s3cmd command line tool which can be used to quickly upload data to object storage. We will then use crontab to regularly invoke the backups script and upload files to our Space.
the cloud provider Volumes are scalable, SSD-based block storage devices. This tutorial covers how to create a passphrase-protected encrypted disk on your Volume containing a file systemm anually mount the encrypted file system for use, unmount and relock it when you’re done, and automatically mount the file system when the Droplet boots.
