Reliable Redis Maintenance with Smart Client Handoffs

“Spring Cloud Config Server”. What is it? With dozens of distributed microservices, you need a way to share configuration details quickly. DB URL’s. Constants. Environment variables. Etc. Keep them in a DB? You don’t want the overhead of DB transactions when you are dispensing these details to possibly one hundred microservices. “Config Server” libraries store these details in a dedicated software repo. They can be pulled quickly. They can be versioned. There is no limit to the size you can store.

Filestash is an open source file manager that gives you one unified interface for all your storage backends. Here's what makes it powerful: → Connect multiple cloud services and protocols through a single dashboard → Give clients or team members secure file access without sharing credentials → Build custom workflows with plugins while keeping everything self-hosted You can try it for free on Open Source Cloud – no credit card required. 🔗 Try it: https://lnkd.in/dkttpvWs 📖 Docs: https://lnkd.in/dSRyfs6X 💻 GitHub: https://lnkd.in/dyBKbAPT #opensource #storage #filemanagement #cloudservices #developertools #selfhosted #s3 #devops

We are introducing JS Stored Programs as a Tech Preview in Percona Server for MySQL 8.4.7-7. 👉 https://hubs.ly/Q03ZsFbD0 Unlike Oracle's implementation, which is restricted to the Enterprise Edition or Oracle Cloud, we have integrated the open source Google V8 engine (the same engine powering Chrome and Node.js).

Cloud operators: do you struggle with forgotten or long-running VMs consuming resources? Apache CloudStack's Instance Lease feature lets you define how long an instance should live, with automatic stop or destroy actions on expiry. Improve governance, cleanup unused workloads, protect budgets, and simplify operations with lifecycle automation built into CloudStack. Learn how it works and why it matters! https://lnkd.in/gJqYdM4d

Theory is important. But cloud skills grow with hands-on practice. Today: Deploying a Web App on EC2. High-level steps: • Launch an EC2 instance • Configure Security Group (HTTP/SSH) • Connect using SSH • Install web server (Apache/Nginx) • Deploy your application With EC2, you control: • OS • Runtime • Application configuration Real-world example: Hosting a personal portfolio or backend API on EC2. Today’s takeaway: 👉 If you can deploy it, you understand it. Day 23 | 100 Days of AWS #AWS #EC2 #WebDeployment #CloudComputing #100DaysOfCloud #LearningInPublic

Serverless doesn't mean no servers—it means you don't have to manage them, letting you focus on business logic. Serverless Benefits: ✅ No Infrastructure Management: Cloud provider handles servers, scaling, and patching ✅ Pay Per Use: Only pay for actual execution time, not idle capacity ✅ Automatic Scaling: Handle traffic spikes without manual intervention ✅ Faster Development: Focus on code instead of infrastructure configuration ✅ Built-in High Availability: Redundancy and failover handled automatically Serverless works great for event-driven workloads and APIs. It's not ideal for everything, but where it fits, it's powerful. What workloads could you move to serverless? #Serverless #CloudComputing #FaaS #CloudNative #ModernApplications

One Small Change Made My Failing Email System Work Perfectly: While sending joining reminders, emails were failing on the cloud — they kept timing out even though the code logic was correct. The problem: Every email was creating a new SMTP connection inside a loop. Example: 1 candidate → 2 emails → each iteration = 2 connections. This was overloading the server and causing timeouts. The solution: Create the SMTP transporter once and reuse it for all emails Send all emails in parallel using Promise.all The results were immediate: ✅ Emails now send reliably on the cloud ✅ Execution is much faster ✅ Resources are used efficiently and errors are gone 💡 Lesson learned: A tiny, well-placed optimization can turn a failing system into a scalable, production-ready engine. #NodeJS #BackendOptimization #AsyncProgramming #ScalableSystems #SoftwareEngineering #ProblemSolving #DeveloperJourney

If you move an old house to a new city, the plumbing is still old. This is the problem with "Lift and Shift" cloud strategies. You take your legacy application and drop it onto #AWS. You might save some data centre space, but you are still dealing with the same monolithic code. Real modernisation is tearing the house down and building a skyscraper. We specialise in Cloud Native development. We use microservices and containers to build applications that are born for the cloud, not just living in it. So, stop moving your problems to new servers... Solve them. https://lnkd.in/dZfx4Ydf #VArrow #CloudNative #AppModernisation #AWS
