I have a question, guys.. Its pretty common to render static pages for docs purposes directly from Github Action or Gitlab Pipeline ( there is also Cloudflare Pages ), but seems that access control is always “public”, even if its a private repo, unless You pay for Github Enteprise. There are fullblown CMSs backed by git like NetlfyCMS, or unbaked solution like Backstage with theirs TechDocs. So I am asking, is there any other alternative that can support private repositories and authentication like from Github provider itself? Seems silly to me to bake static docs to container and deploy it behind some oidc proxy. Ideas? P.S. ah, i just missed officehours

Interesting, I think you can protect your pages hosted in cloudflare using Cloudflare workers: https://www.maxivanov.io/how-to-password-protect-your-website-with-cloudflare-workers/
Use Cloudflare Workers to add password protection on top of a website or API.

Hmm, hope theres some OIDC implementation for using with Github Oauth

Yea, it’s such a bummer that private pages is an enterprise feature



PubSub+ helps enterprises design, deploy and manage event-driven architectures across hybrid cloud, multi-cloud and IoT environments, so they can be more integrated and event-driven.

@here office hours is starting in 30 minutes! Remember to post your questions here.

sweet - for the folks using EKS how do you avoid IP exhaustion? Any use case to avoid this?

Attach an extra CIDR (100.64.N.0/16
) and create the subnets needed, then assign those per AZ as per https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/cni-custom-network.html via one ENIConfig
resource per AZ and configure AWS_VPC_K8S_CNI_CUSTOM_NETWORK_CFG
as per the guide as well
By default, when new network interfaces are allocated for pods, ipamD uses the security groups and subnet of the node’s primary network interface. You might want your pods to use a different security group or subnet, within the same VPC as your control plane security group. For example:

cc @fdrescher

Yup, a VPC can have its own /16
and then you can add 4 extra /16
s!
Also, https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/amazon-vpc-cni-increases-pods-per-node-limits/ and https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/containers/amazon-eks-launches-ipv6-support/

As of August 2021, Amazon VPC Container Networking Interface (CNI) Plugin supports “prefix assignment mode”, enabling you to run more pods per node on AWS Nitro based EC2 instance types. To achieve higher pod density, the VPC CNI plugin leverages a new VPC capability that enables IP address prefixes to be associated with elastic network […]

The ongoing growth of the internet, particularly in the fields of mobile applications, IoT, and application modernization, has led to an industry-wide move to IPv6. With 128 bits of address space, IPv6 can provide 340 undecillion IP addresses, compared to 4.3 billion IPv4 addresses. Over the last several years, Amazon Web Services (AWS) has added […]

@Kerri Rist let’s leave on the agenda for next week since we didn’t get to it

I have a couple of questions regarding hosting .NET apps on AWS w/ IIS:
- Are there any AMIs that you would recommend?
- Have you been able to avoid requiring RDP on the IIS instances?
- Do you know of any Terraform modules that are good for this?

In the past I have used AWS beanstalk for my .net/c# apps that required windows. It worked well for my usecase as I was allowed to use PaaS. I don’t know what the underlying AMI was built on but I have a feeling it was windows server core. I remember having to jump in via RDP and triage a handful of times and only being presented with a terminal.

@Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) — For next time, I would love to hear and discuss more about ya’lls culture around Root Modules / Components only tracking main
. Specifically, as soon as an engineer merges a change is it then their responsibility to push that change through all environments? Do you ever rack up too many changes that haven’t been applied to stage / prod? Do you have systems in place to avoid that?
I’ve probably discussed this before, but I’ve versioned root module changes for one of my largest clients using Git Flow with some custom Spacelift policies to enable that flow… And I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t do it again

Leapp just released v0.10.0 — https://www.leapp.cloud/releases
Super excited about this release as it enables logging into the AWS console from Leapp, which was my major feature request before being able to fully switch away from aws-vault
. If any of ya’ll are using aws-vault
then be sure to check out Leapp — It’s a vastly better tool.

@here office hours is starting in 30 minutes! Remember to post your questions here.

Question: Whats everyone’s experience installing/running https://goteleport.com/ on k8s? Any 1337 hax0rz to be aware of?

we’re running this in production. I work for a big FIntech. It’s pretty good - gives us all the compliance features we want. No ssh key management required.

Any “ah-ha!” moments you’ve had? Or did it just work totally as expected out of the box?

tbh - another team set up Teleport. All I can say as a user is that it works very nicely - the workflow is not onerous - you login with SSO and it just all works nicely. You can quite easily provision instances with ssh and you get kubeconfig files according to your level of access automagically

thanks!! this is awesome to hear!

Question: Whats everyone’s experience with https://crossplane.io/?

@emem i remember you had a question, but don’t recall what it was - can you share?

I’m curious if someone could expand on crossplane vs ACK?

To me it seems like it’s the same idea with CloudFormation / CDK vs Terraform. ACK is just AWS resources and Crossplane enables any API resources through a Terraform-like provider model.
