Netdata is a lightweight, real-time performance monitoring agent that collects thousands of system and application metrics with per-second granularity and displays them through a built-in, zero-configuration web dashboard. Unlike heavier stacks, Netdata starts delivering useful insights within minutes of installation and requires virtually no ongoing maintenance. It can also stream metrics to a central parent […]
Zabbix is a mature, enterprise-grade open-source monitoring platform capable of tracking availability, performance, and log data for thousands of hosts from a single server. It ships with auto-discovery, customizable triggers, rich alerting integrations, and a polished web interface. Installing Zabbix 6.x on RHEL 8 takes roughly thirty minutes and gives you production-ready monitoring backed by […]
HTTP security headers instruct browsers how to handle your site’s content and protect visitors from clickjacking, cross-site scripting, MIME sniffing, and other common attacks. Adding these headers to Nginx or Apache on RHEL 8 is a high-value, low-effort hardening step that improves both your security posture and your score on tools like securityheaders.com. This tutorial […]
Running your own Certificate Authority (CA) with OpenSSL gives you complete control over the certificates issued to your internal services, enabling mutual TLS, encrypted internal APIs, and custom certificate policies without relying on commercial CAs for private infrastructure. On RHEL 8, OpenSSL is pre-installed and the system trust store is managed through the ca-trust framework, […]
SSL/TLS certificates are the foundation of encrypted communications on the internet, authenticating servers and encrypting data in transit. On RHEL 8, OpenSSL provides a full-featured toolkit for creating your own Certificate Authority, generating server certificates, and managing the entire certificate lifecycle. Understanding this process is essential for securing internal services without relying on external providers. […]
SELinux (Security-Enhanced Linux) is a mandatory access control (MAC) framework built into the Linux kernel and enabled by default on every RHEL 8 installation. Unlike discretionary access controls such as standard Unix permissions, SELinux enforces policy rules that confine processes to only the files, sockets, and capabilities they legitimately require, limiting the blast radius of […]
Pulumi is an Infrastructure as Code platform that lets you define cloud resources using general-purpose programming languages such as Python, TypeScript, or Go, rather than a domain-specific language. On RHEL 8, Pulumi pairs naturally with the existing Python ecosystem, allowing you to create and manage AWS resources using familiar constructs like loops, functions, and modules. […]
Fluentd is a unified logging layer that collects logs from multiple sources, parses and transforms them, and forwards the output to destinations such as Elasticsearch, S3, or another Fluentd aggregator. On RHEL 8, the Treasure Data package td-agent provides a supported, RPM-based distribution of Fluentd that integrates with systemd and works alongside your existing application […]
Harbor is an enterprise-grade, open-source container registry that extends the base OCI registry specification with role-based access control, project isolation, image vulnerability scanning powered by Trivy, and cross-datacenter image replication. Running your own Harbor instance on RHEL 8 gives your team a private, auditable registry with no bandwidth costs or rate-limiting imposed by Docker Hub. […]
Introduction Deploying configure nginx as a tcp/udp load balancer on debian 11 on a Debian 11 Bullseye machine is straightforward thanks to Debian’s policy-compliant packaging. Unlike rpm-based distributions, Debian stores configuration helpers in /etc/default/, uses update-rc.d for older init scripts, and provides dpkg-reconfigure for interactive package configuration. This tutorial stays on the systemd path throughout. […]
