Do databases live in Kubernetes?

Historically, the IT industry has divided itself into two camps on any given issue: those 'for' and those 'against'. The topics of debate can be completely arbitrary. Which OS is better: Win or Linux? Should you use Android or iOS on your smartphone? Keep everything in the cloud or store it on cold RAID storage and lock the drives in a safe? Do PHP developers have the right […]

Psion SIBO — PDAs that don't even need emulation

Among the handheld devices from Psion, there are five models that do not require emulation since they operate on NEC V30 processors compatible with 8086, hence the name SIBO – sixteen bit organizer. These processors also have a compatibility mode with the 8080, which is understandably not used in these devices. At one time, Psion released proprietary […]

How I wrote my monitoring

I decided to share my story. Maybe this budget solution to a well-known problem will help someone. When I was young and full of energy and didn’t know where to channel it, I decided to do a little freelancing. I quickly managed to build my rating and found a couple of regular clients who asked me to maintain their servers on an ongoing basis. The first thing I thought of […]

Data recovery from XtraDB tables without a structure file, using a byte-by-byte analysis of the ibd file.

Background It so happened that the server was attacked by ransomware, which, by a 'happy coincidence,' partially left .ibd files (raw data files of InnoDB tables) untouched, while completely encrypting .fpm files (structure files). The .idb files could be divided into: those recoverable through standard means and guides. For such cases, there is a great article; partially encrypted […]

On Axes and Cabbage

Reflections on where the desire to pass the AWS Solutions Architect Associate certification comes from. Motivation one: “Axes”. One of the most useful principles for any professional is 'Know your tools' (or in one of the variations 'Sharpen the saw'). We’ve been in the cloud for a long time, but until now, they were just monolithic applications with databases deployed on EC2 instances — […]
