✨Bringing light to #LifeCycleManagement ✨

Digital preservation is like a journey.

From ingest to versioning, or even batch export and disposal, every stage builds on the last.

👉CPP-029, CPP-021, CPP-006, and CPP-018 help you manage data throughout its lifecycle: tiny.cc/cpp-desc

Wie behält man in Opencast den Überblick? 🤯

Je mehr Aufzeichnungen, desto mehr Admin-Aufwand. Automatisierung ist der Schlüssel! 🔄️

Das neue Lifecycle Management soll Admins helfen, wiederkehrende Aufgaben automatisch zu erledigen – mit vordefinierten Aktionen zu festgelegten Zeitpunkten.

Start-ups win early adopters. Scaling means crossing the chasm to the mainstream, and the mainstream doesn’t forgive sloppiness. Discipline across the customer journey is what carries you over. 🌉

At work I have a monorepo with a bunch of helm charts in it.
The LCM for this repo is garbage - I wrote it a few years ago not really knowing what I was doing, but also knowing it was a temporary thing.
Turns out it’s not so temporary.

The company is looking to move to trunk-based development and I’m looking to redo the LCM of this repo.

Specifically this TBD: https://trunkbaseddevelopment.com/
We want to be able to say “we are doing this” and point at an industry way of doing things, rather than looking at something home grown or modified.

TBD makes sense to me, I’m pretty sure I understand it.

But- the charts on the repo are released altogether monthly (looking to change this, but anticipating another year or more before being able to do so), there are two breaking changes a year.

If I need to patch an old (supported) version, I might not be able to commit it to trunk and cherry-pick back to a relevant release branch because feature flags are hard to impossible in Helm (specifically in the way we use a library chart to provide 99% of the templating).

Am I “allowed” to commit/PR directly to the release branch in this case?
I know I technically can, but I can’t find what is idiomatic TBD in this situation.

Canada could lead the way in mass timber construction, but we need to think about the glues being used.

A great book for the uninitiated about the the resource and recycling crisis was Cradle to Cradle, ideas may have moved forward a bit since then, but practices haven’t

Een van mijn pet-peeves is #lifecyclemanagement: het proces waarbij men als organisatie onder meer de support lifecycle van alle gebruikte producten in kaart heeft en er *tijdig* vervanging/upgrades worden gepland en uitgevoerd.

De volgende belangrijke is #Windows Server 2012 (R2) waarvan de Extended Support op 10 oktober 2023 verloopt.
