Kubernetes volume-mounts with subPath and inotify. Bah humbug
So. I’ve been working on this tool ‘fluent-bit‘. You know the drill. Compile, curse, change, pull-request, repeat. And one of the features I added was to auto-watch its config file and restart on change. This is important in a Kubernetes environment since you supply config via a ‘config map’, and expect it to auto-apply. Great.…
Dramatically simplify developing your app for Kubernetes: a sample
Apologies if this is old-hat for you, but, I was awfully tired of ‘git commit; git push; … wait for CI; … helm…’ Lets say you are developing a simple Python flask app. You are going to edit/push many times to get this going perfectly in Kubernetes. So many docker builds and pushes and redeploys…
Kooking Kontainers With Kubernetes: A Recipe for Dual-Stack Deliciousness
If you have a mild allergy to ascii or yaml you might want to avert your eyes. You’ve been warned. Now, lets imagine you have a largish server hanging around, not earning its keep. And on the other hand, you have a desire to run some CI pipelines on it, and think Kubernetes is the…
Lessons learned: COPY . and geometric size progression

Pruning elastics with Kubernetes CronJobs
There was a time you just ran ‘crontab -e’ to make this happen. But, progress, are you still on my lawn? Lets discuss how to solve the specific issue of ‘my database fills up my disk’ in a Cloud Native way. So the situation. I’m using ElasticSearch and fluent-bit for some logging in a Kubernetes cluster.…
