002 - How to build a career in DevOps Engineering | Saad Ali from Arbisoft

Containers are made to fail gracefully. When your container shuts down due to a hardware or software failure, your distributed application should be able to tolerate that failure. One simple way to be able to tolerate such a failure is to make all of your application logic “stateless.” If your application does not maintain state, then shutting it down in the middle of a computation is not a problem–you can just restart the application, restart your computation, and get the same result. But applications need to maintain state. We need to use databases and in-memory systems to manage long-lived user sessions and other interactions. A database is not just an on-disk abstraction–a database requires an application server to be accepting network traffic. We can run those database applications within containers. There is a fundamental tension between stateful applications and the idea that containers are meant to tolerate failure gracefully. Saad Ali is an engineer at Google, and he returns to the show to discuss Kubernetes storage and state management. He gave a keynote at KubeCon EU, which I spoke to him about. ANNOUNCEMENTS  Upcoming conferences I’m attending: Datadog Dash July 16th and 17th in NYC, Open Core Summit September 19th and 20th in San Francisco We are hiring two interns for software engineering and business development! If you are interested in either position, send an email with your resume to jeff@softwareengineeringdaily.com with “Internship” in the subject line. FindCollabs is the company I am building, we launched several new features recently. If you have a cool project you are working on, I would love to see it. I check out every project that gets posted to FindCollabs, and I’ve been interviewing people from some of these projects on the FindCollabs podcast  New Software Daily app for iOS.

Kubernetes Storage with Saad Ali

In a cloud infrastructure environment, failures happen regularly. The servers can fail, the network can fail, and software bugs can crash your software unexpectedly. The amount of failures that can occur in cloud infrastructure is one reason why storage is often separated from application logic. A developer can launch multiple instances of their application, with each instance providing a “stateless” environment for serving API requests. When the application needs to save state, it can make a call out to a managed cloud infrastructure product. Managed cloud databases provide a reliable place to manage application state. Managed object storage systems like Amazon S3 provide a reliable place to store files. The pattern of relying on remote cloud services does not work so well for on-prem and hybrid cloud environments. In these environments, companies are managing their own data centers and their own storage devices. As companies with on-prem infrastructure adopt Kubernetes, there is a need for ways to manage on-prem storage through Kubernetes. Saad Ali is a senior engineer at Google, where he works on Kubernetes. He is also a part of the Kubernetes Storage Special Interest Group. Saad joins the show talk about how Kubernetes interacts with storage, and how to manage stateful workloads on Kubernetes. We discuss the basics of Kubernetes storage, including persistent volumes and the container storage interface. The post Stateful Kubernetes with Saad Ali appeared first on Software Engineering Daily.
