Hi HN,I am the founder of SprintPulse. Like many of you, I used to dread retrospective meetings. They often turned into a repetitive cycle where we wrote down the same issues every sprint but never actually fixed them. "Better communication" was on our action item list for months.I built SprintPulse to fix that loop. It is a tool designed not just to collect feedback, but to make sure it leads...
Check it out at https://github.com/vitobotta/hetzner-k3s - it's the easiest and fastest way to set up Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner Cloud!
This is with the new version not yet released of my tool https://github.com/vitobotta/hetzner-k3s.It uses k3s as Kubernetes flavor and Hetzner Cloud as provider. For this test I used extremely high concurrency so the tool hung twice in the middle of the process because I was hitting the Hetzner API too hard, so I had to interrupt it and continue.Excluding the time it paused/hung due to the API,...
Hi all, if you already use Kubernetes in any capacity or are you interested in it, would you mind spending a few minutes voting in a quick poll and hopefully answering a few questions? I would appreciate your help a ton because it would help me make the right decision and hopefully avoid a costly waste of time.Everything is in a Github discussion at...
The new release introduces more customisation options for cluster/service CIDRs, cluster DNS, updated manifests for CSI/CCM/autoscaler, and a couple of improvement for creating large clusters. Check it out at https://github.com/vitobotta/hetzner-k3sIf you are already familiar with this tool, I'd love to know how it's worked for you so far. :)
This is my tool to quickly create k3s clusters in Hetzner Cloud.The main change in this release allows creating node pools with any number of nodes - you are limited only by the caps on your Hetzner account. This update makes it possible to create pretty large clusters for cheaphttps://github.com/vitobotta/hetzner-k3sLooking forward to any feedback, comments or questions :)
Hi everyone, I wrote a blog post about Seafile. If you are not familiar with it it's a more reliable and faster file syncing/sharing solution than Nextcloud, which you can self host. In the post I describe how to set it up with object storage (so you don't need to worry about how much disk space you need) and Collabora Online, to be able to work on office documents alone or with other people in...
My understanding is that DNS queries via UDP (the default) should be faster, but I am seeing the opposite on two Macs I own, and other 3 people I have asked who are also on Mac, see exactly the same thing. It's weird, but queries over UDP are 3-5 times slower than queries over TCP. I cannot reproduce this on my Linux servers for example.On my Macs I switched to DNS over TLS which is much faster...
This is the newest update to my CLI tool to quickly create cheap Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner Cloud.This update adds autoscaling support, so clusters created with this tool now can behave similar to managed Kubernetes clusters, which I think is awesome.I received a lot of feedback since the last update so I hope anyone interested could try the new version as well.Thanks a lot for the feedback...
The tool simply requires a small YAML config file and creates and configures everything that you need to get a fully functional cluster in a few minutes. It creates all the infrastructure resources (servers etc), it deploys kubernetes on all the nodes, and then installs some software that allows you to provision both load balancers and persistent volumes. It also installs a controller that makes upgrading to a new version easier.
What the tool does not install is other apps, because this would be too opinionated and depends from cluster to cluster.
Yes cluster upgrades are covered with the "upgrade" command, as described in the REAME. I use the Rancher's System Upgrade Controller for this, which makes rolling upgrades very easy and super quick.
Github Actions is perfectly fine, it's what I use both for personal stuff and at work.
For the database, are you planning to host it in Kubernetes? Depending on the database type there may be an operator that can handle backups easily for you. For example for Postgres I have used the Zalando operator which does this and there is a newer one called CloudNativePG which might be even better. What kind of databases are they?
