    Sailing with AWS Lightsail

    I have a daughter! What a piece of news, isn't it? I can also add again the same line:

    Newsletter is very time-consuming, and being a consultant is time-consuming. Everything is time-consuming.

    However, I had some spare time to play a bit with a small client's project. For example, not everyone needs cutting-edge …

    CDK8S workflow example
    After a long break(again!) - I'm back. Older, more tired, and handsome as always. Newsletter is very time-consuming, and being a consultant is time-consuming. Everything is time-consuming. That's why I decided to write this post with a bit different approach. Let's talk about processes. The tech part is still most …

    Welcome

    Another build something yourself article. The last one was focused on Kubernetes. Now I will try to build infrastructure for a bit different side-project. I always want to learn SaltStack. To be honest, I'm a huge fan of Ansible which is boring, but works. However, sometimes I have a problem with keeping my …

    Welcome

    That will be a short post, rather full of my pain and frustration. Fortunately with happy-end and topic for a small article.

    Problem

    Welcome

    Long time no sea. It's not a typo last time when I saw the see was in September in Greece. Almost the same thing I can say about Ansible. The last time when I used this tool for resolving real problems was more-less 2years ago. To be honest, during this period Ansible becomes (in my mind at least) just another …

    Welcome

    How are you? I hope 2021 starts at least such good as for me. Even without the New Year Party. Maybe you noticed that I deleted the cookbook section, and it's all about splitting topics. It's a tech blog, the rest of my hobbies need separated space. I hope you like this idea. After a few words let's begin.
