Well, that’s good to hear. Maybe I only see people post when things aren’t working, because that’s when people are most likely to post. This project mentions geo replication, does Minio replicate as well?

I haven’t heard much good about Minio. I would also be curious about this project.

Too late for me.

Like the UAE?

On one hand, there is a lot of potential to use solar power. On the other hand, cooling that isn’t going to be a bitch.

Yep, some people sort of miss the point of microservices and make some fairly monolithic containers. Or they’re legacy apps being shoehorned into a container. Some things still require handholding. FreeIPA is a good example. They have a container version, but it’s just a monolithic install in a container and only recommended for testing.

Containerfiles are super easy to write. For the most part if you can do it in a VM, you can do it in a container. This sort of thing is why you would move to containers. Instead of being the “expert” in all the apps you run, you can focus on the things that actually need your attention.

I literally get paid to do this type of work and there is no way for me to be an expert in all the services that our platform runs. Again, that’s kind of the point. Let the person who writes the container be the expert. I’ll provide the platform, the maintenance, upgrades, etc… the developer can provide the expertise in their app.

Correct, not all containers are for services. I would never say that docker is superior. I would however say that containers are (I can be pedantic too). They’re version-controlled, they come with the correct dependencies, etc… There are many reasons why developing with containers is superior and I’m sure you’re aware of them already. Everyone is moving to do exactly that. There are always edge cases, but those are few and far between these days.

30, that’s cute. I currently have 70 containers running on my home server. That doesn’t include any lab I run or the stuff I use at work. Containers make life much easier. I also guarantee you don’t know those apps as well as you think you do either. Just being able to install and configure something doesn’t mean you know the inner workings of them. I used to do the same thing you do. Eventually, I would rather spend my time doing other things or learning certain things more in-depth and be okay with a working knowledge of others. It can be fun and rewarding to do things the hard way but don’t kid yourself and think you’re somehow superior for doing it that way.

Well, yes that’s best practice. That doesn’t mean you have to do it that way.

You absolutely can. It’s not like the developers of postgresql maintain a version of postgresql that only allows one db. You can connect to that db and add however many things you want to it.

That’s half the point of the container… You let an expert set it up so you don’t have to know it on that level. You can manage fast more containers this way.

What? No it doesn’t… You could still have just one postgresql database if you wanted just one. It is a big antithetical to microservices, but there is no reason you can do it.

You need to be careful though. The rich people in DeKalb are the farmers. Taxing them is taxing food.

Wealthy, in DeKalb? You won’t get any revenue that way. DeKalb is mostly just a university town. A lot of the people who go to that university commute from Rockford or the Chicago suburbs.

Coke with lime was my favorite… That’s still my go-to at the Freestyle machines.

Ha, that would be excellent. Don’t forget Sony and PlayStation.

Canonical is mostly a leech on open source.

Sure, that’s why they keep adding features people don’t want. But gimping one of their key paid features makes no sense to me.
