I have been using Docker for several months to structure the development/delivery process of web projects. I suggest to the readers of "Habr" a translation of the introductory article on Docker — "Understanding Docker". What is Docker? Docker is an open platform for developing, delivering, and running applications. Docker is designed to speed up the deployment of your applications. With Docker, you can separate your application from your infrastructure and […]

On Friday, August 2nd, the release of re2c was announced — a free lexical analyzer generator for C and C++ languages. It should be noted that re2c was written in 1993 by Peter Baeumer as an experimental generator of very fast lexical analyzers, distinguished from other generators by the speed of the generated code and an unusually flexible user interface, which allows for easy and efficient embedding of analyzers into existing […]
On May 27, in the main hall of the DevOpsConf 2019 conference, held within the framework of the RIT++ 2019 festival, as part of the 'Continuous Delivery' section, a presentation titled 'werf – our tool for CI/CD in Kubernetes' was delivered. It discusses the problems and challenges that everyone faces when deploying in Kubernetes, as well as nuances that may not be immediately obvious. […]
Traditionally, enterprise IT systems were designed for automation tasks and supporting target systems, such as ERP. Today, organizations face different challenges – those of digitalization and digital transformation. It is difficult to address these challenges based on the previous IT architecture. Digital transformation is a serious challenge. What should the program for transforming IT systems to achieve business digital transformation be based on? The right IT infrastructure is the key to […]
The EPEL (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) project, which maintains a repository of additional packages for RHEL and CentOS, has launched a variant of the repository for distributions compatible with Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. Binary builds are produced for x86_64, aarch64, ppc64le, and s390x architectures. At this stage of the repository's development, around 250 additional packages supported by the Fedora Linux community are presented (in […]
The release of re2c has taken place, a free lexical analyzer generator for C and C++ languages. It is worth remembering that re2c was written in 1993 by Peter Bambulis as an experimental generator of very fast lexical analyzers, distinguished from other generators by the speed of the generated code and an unusually flexible user interface that allows for easy and efficient integration of analyzers into existing codebases. Since then […]
The release of the Linux Mint 19.2 distribution has been announced, which is the second update of the Linux Mint 19.x branch based on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and supported until 2023. The distribution is fully compatible with Ubuntu but significantly differs in its approach to organizing the user interface and the selection of applications used by default. The developers of Linux Mint provide a desktop environment that aligns with classic desktop organization principles, which […]
Gitea is a project aimed at creating the simplest, fastest, and most user-friendly interface for Git for self-hosting. The project supports all platforms supported by Go – GNU/Linux, macOS, Windows on architectures from x86_(64) and arm64 to PowerPC. This version of Gitea contains important security fixes that will not be backported to the 1.8 branch. For this reason, […]
A new version of the system library glibc – 2.30 – has been released. Some updates include: Character encoding, character type information, and transliteration tables have been updated and now support Unicode version 12.1.0. The dynamic linker accepts the –preload argument to preload objects in addition to the LD_PRELOAD environment variable. The twalk_r function has been added. It is similar to the existing twalk function, but it can pass […]
One of Superman's most famous abilities is his super vision, which allowed him to see atoms, see in the dark and at great distances, and even see through objects. This ability is rarely demonstrated on screens, but it exists. In our reality, seeing through almost completely opaque objects is also possible by applying some scientific tricks. However, the resulting images always […]
In recent years, time-series databases have evolved from a niche technology (specialized mainly in open monitoring systems tied to specific solutions or in Big Data projects) to a 'consumer product'. In Russia, special thanks for this go to Yandex and ClickHouse. Until now, if you needed to store […]
