- Getting Forked by MicrosoftApr 21, 2025
Three years ago, I was part of a team responsible for developing and maintaining Kubernetes clusters for end user customers. A main source for downtime in customer environments occurred when image registries went down. The traditional way to solve this problem is to set up a stateful mirror, however we had to work within customer budget and time constraints which did not allow it. During a Black F
- Kubernetes Generated SecretFeb 03, 2020

- Cross Compiling Docker ImagesSep 20, 2019
It has been an issue for a long time to run Docker images on multiple architectures. I remember the first time I got the idea to install Docker on my Raspberry Pi and I realized quickly that what I was trying to do would not work.

I struggled for some time, messing around with the settings trying to get my USG to connect to the VPN server but it w
- Common S3 Static Website ProblemsMar 24, 2019
There are a bunch of blog posts and tutorials out there showing how to setup a static website on AWS. They all offer the same general solution with maybe some caveat. Route53 for DNS, CloudFront as a CDN to speed up content delivery, S3 to store the content, and ACM as a certificate provider. A good place to start off at when embarking on a new project is AWS own reference documentation. AWS stati
- UCNBMar 10, 2019
UCNB is a helper application built to extend the Unifi Controller notifications by allowing more output methods other than eMail. In it core this is just an SMTP server with some logic to forward eMails to other resources. This was initially built to forward notifications to IFTTT so that they trigger notifications in a phone, but it is possible to use this project for many other purposes.
