Networking strategies for Linux on Azure
We explore advanced networking strategies tailored for Linux workloads on Azure.
Production-ready mini-Kubernetes installations
Kubernetes can be highly complex, with massive setup routines that are totally over the top for newcomers. If you want to try out Kubernetes or run it in production, you have a number of options, even if you decide not to use the comprehensive packages from established vendors.
Automated health checks
The open source Dradis framework helps you create plans for carrying out team pentests and facilitates the task of standardizing reports from different tools to create summary output.
Manage and automate networks
The StackStorm open source platform helps admins manage networks efficiently by automating repetitive tasks and responding to events in real time.
Operating large language models in-house
An internal AI server is an interesting way to retain data sovereignty. We show you how to set up an in-house AI server on your hardware and use it in parallel with AI services such as ChatGPT in the cloud.
Snapshot management for Azure VMs
Microsoft recommends the use of snapshots both locally and for Azure VMs. We describe how to create snapshots in the Azure GUI and with PowerShell and how to protect your snapshots against unauthorized access.
Comparing system rescue distros
Rescue systems play a particularly important role for desktops because they cannot simply be reinstalled on the fly. We look at venerable but outdated Knoppix and three still in development: Grml, SystemRescue, and Finnix.
File access optimization discovery and visualization
File I/O is a limiting factor for many applications and can become a bottleneck for data-intensive computing. We analyze different file access functions and present a script that visualizes and optimizes inefficient file I/O.
Intelligent observability with AI and Coroot
In the deep waters of scalable environments, observability is more important than ever. Coroot enters the scene with eBPF to intercept traffic and collect data that is of interest for monitoring and attack detection.
Container compliance with dockle
The open source dockle tool can help keep your Docker containers compliant.
