What is DevOps? | Atlassian - 0 views

devops system

shared by 張 旭 on 13 Nov 18 - No Cached
  • DevOps is a set of practices that automates the processes between software development and IT teams, in order that they can build, test, and release software faster and more reliably.
  • increased trust, faster software releases, ability to solve critical issues quickly, and better manage unplanned work.
  • bringing together the best of software development and IT operations.
  • ...39 more annotations...
  • DevOps is a culture, a movement, a philosophy.
  • a firm handshake between development and operations
  • DevOps isn’t magic, and transformations don’t happen overnight.
  • Infrastructure as code
  • Culture is the #1 success factor in DevOps.
  • Building a culture of shared responsibility, transparency and faster feedback is the foundation of every high performing DevOps team.
  •  'not our problem' mentality
  • DevOps is that change in mindset of looking at the development process holistically and breaking down the barrier between Dev and Ops.
  • Speed is everything.
  • Lack of automated test and review cycles block the release to production and poor incident response time kills velocity and team confidence
  • Open communication helps Dev and Ops teams swarm on issues, fix incidents, and unblock the release pipeline faster.
  • Unplanned work is a reality that every team faces–a reality that most often impacts team productivity.
  • “cross-functional collaboration.”
  • All the tooling and automation in the world are useless if they aren’t accompanied by a genuine desire on the part of development and IT/Ops professionals to work together.
  • DevOps doesn’t solve tooling problems. It solves human problems.
  • Forming project- or product-oriented teams to replace function-based teams is a step in the right direction.
  • sharing a common goal and having a plan to reach it together
  • join sprint planning sessions, daily stand-ups, and sprint demos.
  • DevOps culture across every department
  • open channels of communication, and talk regularly
  • DevOps isn’t one team’s job. It’s everyone’s job.
  • automation eliminates repetitive manual work, yields repeatable processes, and creates reliable systems.
  • Build, test, deploy, and provisioning automation
  • continuous delivery: the practice of running each code change through a gauntlet of automated tests, often facilitated by cloud-based infrastructure, then packaging up successful builds and promoting them up toward production using automated deploys.
  • automated deploys alert IT/Ops to server “drift” between environments, which reduces or eliminates surprises when it’s time to release.
  • “configuration as code.”
  • when DevOps uses automated deploys to send thoroughly tested code to identically provisioned environments, “Works on my machine!” becomes irrelevant.
  • A DevOps mindset sees opportunities for continuous improvement everywhere.
  • regular retrospectives
  • A/B testing
  • failure is inevitable. So you might as well set up your team to absorb it, recover, and learn from it (some call this “being anti-fragile”).
  • Postmortems focus on where processes fell down and how to strengthen them – not on which team member f'ed up the code.
  • Our engineers are responsible for QA, writing, and running their own tests to get the software out to customers.
  • How long did it take to go from development to deployment? 
  • How long does it take to recover after a system failure?
  • service level agreements (SLAs)
  • Devops isn't any single person's job. It's everyone's job.
  • DevOps is big on the idea that the same people who build an application should be involved in shipping and running it.
  • developers and operators pair with each other in each phase of the application’s lifecycle.

Trunk-based Development | Atlassian - 0 views

git development

shared by 張 旭 on 11 Oct 21 - No Cached
  • Trunk-based development is a version control management practice where developers merge small, frequent updates to a core “trunk” or main branch.
  • Gitflow and trunk-based development. 
  • Gitflow, which was popularized first, is a stricter development model where only certain individuals can approve changes to the main code. This maintains code quality and minimizes the number of bugs.
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • Trunk-based development is a more open model since all developers have access to the main code. This enables teams to iterate quickly and implement CI/CD.
  • Developers can create short-lived branches with a few small commits compared to other long-lived feature branching strategies.
  • Gitflow is an alternative Git branching model that uses long-lived feature branches and multiple primary branches.
  • Gitflow also has separate primary branch lines for development, hotfixes, features, and releases.
  • Trunk-based development is far more simplified since it focuses on the main branch as the source of fixes and releases.
  • Trunk-based development eases the friction of code integration.
  • trunk-based development model reduces these conflicts.
  • Adding an automated test suite and code coverage monitoring for this stream of commits enables continuous integration.
  • When new code is merged into the trunk, automated integration and code coverage tests run to validate the code quality.
  • Trunk-based development strives to keep the trunk branch “green”, meaning it's ready to deploy at any commit.
  • With continuous integration, developers perform trunk-based development in conjunction with automated tests that run after each committee to a trunk.
  • If trunk-based development was like music it would be a rapid staccato -- short, succinct notes in rapid succession, with the repository commits being the notes.
  • Instead of creating a feature branch and waiting to build out the complete specification, developers can instead create a trunk commit that introduces the feature flag and pushes new trunk commits that build out the feature specification within the flag.
  • Automated testing is necessary for any modern software project intending to achieve CI/CD.
  • Short running unit and integration tests are executed during development and upon code merge.
  • Automated tests provide a layer of preemptive code review.
  • Once a branch merges, it is best practice to delete it.
  • A repository with a large amount of active branches has some unfortunate side effects
  • Merge branches to the trunk at least once a day
  • The “continuous” in CI/CD implies that updates are constantly flowing.

shared by 張 旭 on 23 Nov 18 - No Cached
  • using a service-oriented architecture and microservices approach, developers can design a code base to be modular.
  • Modern applications are often distributed and cloud-based
  • different release cycles for different components
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • the abstraction of the infrastructure layer, which is now considered code. Deployment of a new application may require the deployment of new infrastructure code as well.
  • "big bang" deployments update whole or large parts of an application in one fell swoop.
  • Big bang deployments required the business to conduct extensive development and testing before release, often associated with the "waterfall model" of large sequential releases.
  • Rollbacks are often costly, time-consuming, or even impossible.
  • In a rolling deployment, an application’s new version gradually replaces the old one.
  • new and old versions will coexist without affecting functionality or user experience.
  • Each container is modified to download the latest image from the app vendor’s site.
  • two identical production environments work in parallel.
  • Once the testing results are successful, application traffic is routed from blue to green.
  • In a blue-green deployment, both systems use the same persistence layer or database back end.
  • You can use the primary database by blue for write operations and use the secondary by green for read operations.
  • Blue-green deployments rely on traffic routing.
  • long TTL values can delay these changes.
  • The main challenge of canary deployment is to devise a way to route some users to the new application.
  • Using an application logic to unlock new features to specific users and groups.
  • With CD, the CI-built code artifact is packaged and always ready to be deployed in one or more environments.
  • Use Build Automation tools to automate environment builds
  • Use configuration management tools
  • Enable automated rollbacks for deployments
  • An application performance monitoring (APM) tool can help your team monitor critical performance metrics including server response times after deployments.

devops terraform config

shared by 張 旭 on 11 Apr 19 - No Cached
  • In default usage, terraform init downloads and installs the plugins for any providers used in the configuration automatically, placing them in a subdirectory of the .terraform directory.
  • allows each configuration to potentially use different versions of plugins.
  • In automation environments, it can be desirable to disable this behavior and instead provide a fixed set of plugins already installed on the system where Terraform is running. This then avoids the overhead of re-downloading the plugins on each execution
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • the desire for an interactive approval step between plan and apply.
  • terraform init -input=false to initialize the working directory.
  • terraform plan -out=tfplan -input=false to create a plan and save it to the local file tfplan.
  • terraform apply -input=false tfplan to apply the plan stored in the file tfplan.
  • the environment variable TF_IN_AUTOMATION is set to any non-empty value, Terraform makes some minor adjustments to its output to de-emphasize specific commands to run.
  • it can be difficult or impossible to ensure that the plan and apply subcommands are run on the same machine, in the same directory, with all of the same files present.
  • to allow only one plan to be outstanding at a time.
  • forcing plans to be approved (or dismissed) in sequence
  • -auto-approve
  • The -auto-approve option tells Terraform not to require interactive approval of the plan before applying it.
  • obtain the archive created in the previous step and extract it at the same absolute path. This re-creates everything that was present after plan, avoiding strange issues where local files were created during the plan step.

  • In robotics and automation, a control loop is a non-terminating loop that regulates the state of a system.
  • controllers are control loops that watch the state of your cluster, then make or request changes where needed
  • Each controller tries to move the current cluster state closer to the desired state.
  • ...12 more annotations...
  • A controller tracks at least one Kubernetes resource type.
  • The controller(s) for that resource are responsible for making the current state come closer to that desired state.
  • in Kubernetes, a controller will send messages to the API server that have useful side effects.
  • Built-in controllers manage state by interacting with the cluster API server.
  • By contrast with Job, some controllers need to make changes to things outside of your cluster.
  • the controller makes some change to bring about your desired state, and then reports current state back to your cluster's API server. Other control loops can observe that reported data and take their own actions.
  • As long as the controllers for your cluster are running and able to make useful changes, it doesn't matter if the overall state is stable or not.
  • Kubernetes uses lots of controllers that each manage a particular aspect of cluster state.
  • a particular control loop (controller) uses one kind of resource as its desired state, and has a different kind of resource that it manages to make that desired state happen.
  • There can be several controllers that create or update the same kind of object.
  • you can have Deployments and Jobs; these both create Pods. The Job controller does not delete the Pods that your Deployment created, because there is information (labels) the controllers can use to tell those Pods apart.
  • Kubernetes comes with a set of built-in controllers that run inside the kube-controller-manager.

  • Researching issues felt like bouncing a rubber ball between teams, hard to catch the root cause and harder yet to stop from bouncing between one another.
  • In the past, Edge Engineering had ops-focused teams and SRE specialists who owned the deploy+operate+support parts of the software life cycle
  • hearing about those problems second-hand
  • ...17 more annotations...
  • devs could push code themselves when needed, and also were responsible for off-hours production issues and support requests
  • What were we trying to accomplish and why weren’t we being successful?
  • These specialized roles create efficiencies within each segment while potentially creating inefficiencies across the entire life cycle.
  • Grouping differing specialists together into one team can reduce silos, but having different people do each role adds communication overhead, introduces bottlenecks, and inhibits the effectiveness of feedback loops.
  • devops principles
  • develops a system also be responsible for operating and supporting that system
  • Each development team owns deployment issues, performance bugs, capacity planning, alerting gaps, partner support, and so on.
  • Those centralized teams act as force multipliers by turning their specialized knowledge into reusable building blocks.
  • Communication and alignment are the keys to success.
  • Full cycle developers are expected to be knowledgeable and effective in all areas of the software life cycle.
  • ramping up on areas they haven’t focused on before
  • We run dev bootcamps and other forms of ongoing training to impart this knowledge and build up these skills
  • “how can I automate what is needed to operate this system?”
  • “what self-service tool will enable my partners to answer their questions without needing me to be involved?”
  • A full cycle developer thinks and acts like an SWE, SDET, and SRE. At times they create software that solves business problems, at other times they write test cases for that, and still other times they automate operational aspects of that system.
  • the need for continuous delivery pipelines, monitoring/observability, and so on.
  • Tooling and automation help to scale expertise, but no tool will solve every problem in the developer productivity and operations space

    "Over the last decade we've developed and refined a number of techniques that allow a database design to evolve as an application develops. This is a very important capability for agile methodologies. The techniques rely on applying continuous integration and automated refactoring to database development, together with a close collaboration between DBAs and application developers. The techniques work in both pre-production and released systems, in green field projects as well as legacy systems."

  • CMD would be running an application upon creation of a container which is already installed using RUN (e.g. RUN apt-get install …) inside the image
  • ENTRYPOINT argument sets the concrete default application that is used every time a container is created using the image.
  • ENV command is used to set the environment variables (one or more).
  • ...6 more annotations...
  • EXPOSE command is used to associate a specified port to enable networking between the running process inside the container and the outside world
  • defines the base image to use to start the build process
  • Unlike CMD, it actually is used to build the image (forming another layer on top of the previous one which is committed).
  • VOLUME command is used to enable access from your container to a directory on the host machine
  • set where the command defined with CMD is to be executed
  • To detach yourself from the container, use the escape sequence CTRL+P followed by CTRL+Q

  • docker as a project offers you the complete set of higher-level tools to carry everything that forms an application across systems and machines - virtual or physical - and brings along loads more of great benefits with it
  • docker daemon: used to manage docker (LXC) containers on the host it runs
  • docker CLI: used to command and communicate with the docker daemon
  • ...20 more annotations...
  • containers: directories containing everything-your-application
  • images: snapshots of containers or base OS (e.g. Ubuntu) images
  • Dockerfiles: scripts automating the building process of images
  • Docker containers are basically directories which can be packed (e.g. tar-archived) like any other, then shared and run across various different machines and platforms (hosts).
  • Linux Containers can be defined as a combination various kernel-level features (i.e. things that Linux-kernel can do) which allow management of applications (and resources they use) contained within their own environment
  • Each container is layered like an onion and each action taken within a container consists of putting another block (which actually translates to a simple change within the file system) on top of the previous one.
  • Each docker container starts from a docker image which forms the base for other applications and layers to come.
  • Docker images constitute the base of docker containers from which everything starts to form
  • a solid, consistent and dependable base with everything that is needed to run the applications
  • As more layers (tools, applications etc.) are added on top of the base, new images can be formed by committing these changes.
  • a Dockerfile for automated image building
  • Dockerfiles are scripts containing a successive series of instructions, directions, and commands which are to be executed to form a new docker image.
  • As you work with a container and continue to perform actions on it (e.g. download and install software, configure files etc.), to have it keep its state, you need to “commit”.
  • Please remember to “commit” all your changes.
  • When you "run" any process using an image, in return, you will have a container.
  • When the process is not actively running, this container will be a non-running container. Nonetheless, all of them will reside on your system until you remove them via rm command.
  • To create a new container, you need to use a base image and specify a command to run.
  • you can not change the command you run after having created a container (hence specifying one during "creation")
  • If you would like to save the progress and changes you made with a container, you can use “commit”
  • turns your container to an image
