Just scaled the last dyno of our rails app to 0. Might write up a thread but we're now running on AWS, provisioned with #OpenTofu, deploying with #kamal. Gradually moved traffic a via CloudFlare load balancer over the last week and so far so good. AMA.

Here I am working today, on stupid #devops shit, when , and I am shocked to have to say this, but a Senior Architect tells me and I literally quote "Wendy, I dont understand #DNS nearly as good as you do, so can you help me understand the cadence of what goes first or second", and all I can think is, this guy is a developer and he stupidly asks me this question? how in the fuck?

Hey! I will speak at #OpenTofuDay Europe in Amsterdam on March 23!

In my talk, we will see how to package OpenTofu and its providers, and we will exercise that to migrate from Terraform 0.12.x to OpenTofu 1.11.x.

In a little more than two weeks, I'll be kicking back at #KubeConEU in lovely #Amsterdam. Hit me up if you want to talk about running #Mastodon on #Kubernetes or want to exchange war stories from the corporate trenches about building awesome multi tenant Kubernetes clusters for larger companies. Or, you know, just want to have a drink of some kind ;-)

Disclaimer: I'm not a vendor, although I am available for consultancy, if you're into that sort of thing.

The AWS Console and Terraform Security Gap - Include Security Research Blog

Are you using Terraform to build or configure your AWS environment? You might be surprised by configuration settings that introduce vulnerabilities by default, particularly if you're already familiar with using the AWS or other cloud provider interfaces for asset creation. This post focuses on the slowly growing security divide of AWS asset security settings when created by the Terraform provider vs the AWS UI.
