How we organized a highly effective and cost-efficient DataLake and why we did it this way

Posted on

We live in an amazing time where you can quickly and easily connect several ready-to-use open tools, configure them with 'disconnected awareness' following advice from Stack Overflow, without delving into the 'many letters', and launch them into commercial operation. But when it's time to update/expand or someone accidentally reboots a couple of machines, you realize that you've entered some persistent, annoying nightmare awake, and everything has suddenly become much more complicated.

In Ubuntu 20.10, they plan to switch from iptables to nftables

Posted on

Following Fedora and Debian, Ubuntu developers are considering a shift to using the nftables packet filter by default.

This change is planned to be included in the upcoming Ubuntu 20.10 release this fall. This is the second […]

Ceph: The first practical course in English

Posted on

The communities of Ceph users are filled with stories of how everything broke, failed to start, or became unresponsive. Does this mean that the technology is bad? Absolutely not. It signifies that development is taking place. Users encounter the bottlenecks of the technology, find recipes and solutions, and send patches upstream. The more experience there is with the technology, and the more users bet on it, the more documented problems there will be.

CRM systems don't exist?

Posted on

Hello, Habr! On April 22 of this year, I wrote an article on Habr about discounts on CRM systems. At that time, I thought that price was the most important selection criterion, and everything else I could easily handle with my brains and experience as a sysadmin. The boss was expecting quick wonders from me, employees settled in to lounge around and work from home, COVID was spreading across the planet, and I was choosing a system […]
