  • Enabling Simple Content Access and registering to Red Hat Insights with Subscription Manager

    Simple Content Access (SCA) allows you to access Red Hat software content without attaching a subscription to a particular system or environment. Separating subscriptions and content management makes it easier for admins to fully utilize their RHEL subscriptions efficiently.

    In this three-part series, we will cover how to enable Simple Content Access and register your systems to Red Hat Insights and how to view your Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) systems in the Red Hat Customer Portal. We'll also cover how to create custom tags to use tag filtering in Red Hat Insights to support more refined views of your RHEL environments.

  • Building a DevSecOps culture and shifting security left

    There is an old saying that you can pick only two of the following traits: good, fast, and cheap. If you choose a good and fast path, it will be expensive. If you choose good and cheap, it will take time to get it delivered. Lastly, the fast and cheap selection will yield poor quality.

    Over the past decade, companies have embraced DevOps methodologies, and understand the tough selection between the three traits. Tool selection is extremely important to implement a DevOps culture, although it will require more than just the perfect tool.

    Successfully implementing DevOps, as a culture and practice, is predicated on automation. Efficient automation is how a company like Etsy does 50 deployments per day. This speed of development and deployment has some obvious advantages—bugs don’t live in production very long because rapid development and deployment replaces them very quickly with corrected code. You can also introduce new features quickly without having to wait for long development cycles to create a complete package. A new feature can be developed and deployed while other features are being developed alongside.

  • Exploring our bugs, part 2: resolution – Fedora Community Blog

    This is this second part of a series I promised during my Nest With Fedora talk (also called “Exploring Our Bugs”). In this post, I’ll analyzing the bug report resolutions from Fedora Linux 19 to Fedora Linux 32. If you want to do your own analysis, the Jupyter notebook and source data are available on Pagure. These posts are not written to advocate any specific changes or policies. In fact, they may ask more questions than they answer.

  • 4 IT automation myths dispelled | Enable Sysadmin

    If it takes more time to automate a certain task than simply to accomplish the job manually, it is not worth automating.

    You are likely to get resistance from your peers or management about automating tasks based on time savings. In reality, every job you do as an engineer is worth automating, but you have to be cognizant of the time and deliverables. When certain tasks appear to be not worth automating, I have often found that what is actually meant is that it's just not possible to automate it at this time. However, in the future, your objective should be to automate the task—you are likely to get less resistance from your team if you keep this perspective. Just make sure to communicate the automation proposal in a way that meets your immediate goals and improves future effectiveness.

  • Remote work: 4 misconceptions about workplace re-entry | The Enterprisers Project

    When COVID forced the world to quickly adapt to a remote work environment, many of us thought that we were facing our biggest workforce challenge. But as leaders and employees grapple with how to move forward post-pandemic, we’re quickly realizing that our greatest obstacle may well be re-entry into the workplace.

    From the very beginning of the pandemic, we knew work would never look the same, and discussions surrounding “back to normal” quickly changed to “the new normal.” But as much as we’ve hyped this concept, no one has been able to define it: Employers are struggling to outline what expectations they should have for employees, who in turn are wondering how they will adjust, again, and rework their schedules to accommodate their employer’s expectations.

    On top of all this, many people are reexamining what a successful career looks like and are trading cutthroat, always-on jobs for roles that allow for more flexibility and meaning – a trend that’s becoming known as the “Great Resignation.”

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
