Provisioning an Autoscaling Infrastructure using Ansible AWX

In the current application era, continuous application availability and zero downtimes are the most tempting things, and if you have a SaaS-based product, it’s very important to keep your infrastructure up and running with healthy services all the time. AWS autoscaling helps people to achieve this, and this is probably the reason that we have seen a number of people using it nowadays. But the biggest challenge in using an autoscaled environment is provisioning scaled infrastructure.

Continuous Improvement in Monitoring with Prometheus 2.0

Monitoring is the backbone of any good production environment. The Prometheus monitoring system, a project hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF), has rapidly gained popularity for containerized infrastructure and application monitoring alike, and it's taking its next step forward.

Complex Infrastructure Management with Terraform and Bash Script as Wrapper

Writing infrastructure-as-code for an environment having a variety and number of cloud resources would be the most crucial job in infrastructure automation. For such complex environments, it becomes necessary to have infrastructure-as-code readable and flexible. This facilitates understanding the infrastructure quickly. Terraform is an infrastructure-as-code software by Hashicorp which provides users a systematic way to define infrastructure configuration and execute in a desirable way.

Docker + Development = Optimized Container Performance

We are living in a world of intricately designed ecosystems. And application development ecosystems are no exception. Application deployment is an integral part of any software development process and the selection of software-hardware recipes is an important aspect of these processes. Not long ago everyone in the storage and data centre world was talking about, “How virtual machines are transforming the space?” And now containers are slowly taking over the baton.
