  • A copy of the revision tracking database is known as a code repository, often shortened to code repo or just repo.
  • always a one-to-one correlation between the codebase and the app
  • If there are multiple codebases, it’s not an app – it’s a distributed system.
  • ...4 more annotations...
  • Each component in a distributed system is an app
  • only one codebase per app, but there will be many deploys of the app.
  • A deploy is a running instance of the app.
  • The codebase is the same across all deploys, although different versions may be active in each deploy.

MySQL on Docker: Running ProxySQL as Kubernetes Service | Severalnines - 0 views

  • Using Kubernetes ConfigMap approach, ProxySQL can be clustered with immutable configuration.
  • Kubernetes handles ProxySQL recovery and balance the connections to the instances automatically.
  • Can be used with external applications outside Kubernetes.
  • ...11 more annotations...
  • load balancing, connection failover and decoupling of the application tier from the underlying database topologies.
  • ProxySQL as a Kubernetes service (centralized deployment)
  • running as a service makes ProxySQL pods live independently from the applications and can be easily scaled and clustered together with the help of Kubernetes ConfigMap.
  • ProxySQL's multi-layer configuration system makes pod clustering possible with ConfigMap.
  • create ProxySQL pods and attach a Kubernetes service to be accessed by the other pods within the Kubernetes network or externally.
  • Default to 6033 for MySQL load-balanced connections and 6032 for ProxySQL administration console.
  • separated by "---" delimiter
  • deploy two ProxySQL pods as a ReplicaSet that matches containers labelled with "app=proxysql,tier=frontend".
  • A Kubernetes service is an abstraction layer which defines the logical set of pods and a policy by which to access them
  • The range of valid ports for NodePort resource is 30000-32767.
  • ConfigMap - To store ProxySQL configuration file as a volume so it can be mounted to multiple pods and can be remounted again if the pod is being rescheduled to the other Kubernetes node.

plataformatec/simple_form - 0 views

  • The basic goal of Simple Form is to not touch your way of defining the layout
  • by default contains label, hints, errors and the input itself
  • Simple Form acts as a DSL and just maps your input type (retrieved from the column definition in the database) to a specific helper method.
  • ...68 more annotations...
  • can overwrite the default label by passing it to the input method
  • configure the html of any of them
  • disable labels, hints or error
  • add a hint, an error, or even a placeholder
  • add an inline label
  • pass any html attribute straight to the input, by using the :input_html option
  • use the :defaults option in simple_form_fo
  • Simple Form generates a wrapper div around your label and input by default, you can pass any html attribute to that wrapper as well using the :wrapper_html option,
  • By default all inputs are required
  • the required property of any input can be overwritten
  • Simple Form will look at the column type in the database and use an appropriate input for the column
  • lets you overwrite the default input type it creates
  • can also render boolean attributes using as: :select to show a dropdown.
  • give the :disabled option to Simple Form, and it'll automatically mark the wrapper as disabled with a CSS class
  • Simple Form accepts same options as their corresponding input type helper in Rails
  • Any extra option passed to these methods will be rendered as html option.
  • use label, hint, input_field, error and full_error helpers
  • to strip away all the div wrappers around the <input> field
  • is to use f.input_field
  • changing boolean_style from default value :nested to :inline
  • overriding the :collection option
  • Collections can be arrays or ranges, and when a :collection is given the :select input will be rendered by default
  • Other types of collection are :radio_buttons and :check_boxes
  • label_method
  • value_method
  • Both of these options also accept lambda/procs
  • define a to_label method on your model as Simple Form will search for and use :to_label as a :label_method first if it is found
  • create grouped collection selects, that will use the html optgroup tags
  • Grouped collection inputs accept the same :label_method and :value_method options
  • group_method
  • group_label_method
  • configured with a default value to be used on the site through the SimpleForm.country_priority and SimpleForm.time_zone_priority helpers.
  • association
  • association
  • render a :select input for choosing the :company, and another :select input with :multiple option for the :roles
  • all options available to :select, :radio_buttons and :check_boxes are also available to association
  • declare different labels and values
  • the association helper is currently only tested with Active Record
  • f.input
  • f.select
  • create a <button> element
  • simple_fields_for
  • Creates a collection of radio inputs with labels associated
  • Creates a collection of checkboxes with labels associated
  • collection_radio_buttons
  • collection_check_boxes
  • associations in your model
  • Role.all
  • the html element you will get for each attribute according to its database definition
  • redefine existing Simple Form inputs by creating a new class with the same name
  • Simple Form uses all power of I18n API to lookup labels, hints, prompts and placeholders
  • specify defaults for all models under the 'defaults' key
  • Simple Form will always look for a default attribute translation under the "defaults" key if no specific is found inside the model key
  • Simple Form will fallback to default human_attribute_name from Rails when no other translation is found for labels.
  • Simple Form will only do the lookup for options if you give a collection composed of symbols only.
  • "Add %{model}"
  • translations for labels, hints and placeholders for a namespaced model, e.g. Admin::User, should be placed under admin_user, not under admin/user
  • This difference exists because Simple Form relies on object_name provided by Rails' FormBuilder to determine the translation path for a given object instead of i18n_key from the object itself.
  • configure how your components will be rendered using the wrappers API
  • optional
  • unless_blank
  • By default, Simple Form will generate input field types and attributes that are supported in HTML5
  • The HTML5 extensions include the new field types such as email, number, search, url, tel, and the new attributes such as required, autofocus, maxlength, min, max, step.
  • If you want to have all other HTML 5 features, such as the new field types, you can disable only the browser validation
  • add novalidate to a specific form by setting the option on the form itself
  • the Simple Form configuration file
  • passing the html5 option
  • as: :date, html5: true

Incremental Backup - 0 views

  • xtrabackup supports incremental backups, which means that they can copy only the data that has changed since the last backup.
  • You can perform many incremental backups between each full backup, so you can set up a backup process such as a full backup once a week and an incremental backup every day, or full backups every day and incremental backups every hour.
  • each InnoDB page contains a log sequence number, or LSN. The LSN is the system version number for the entire database. Each page’s LSN shows how recently it was changed.
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • In full backups, two types of operations are performed to make the database consistent: committed transactions are replayed from the log file against the data files, and uncommitted transactions are rolled back.
  • You should use the --apply-log-only option to prevent the rollback phase.
  • An incremental backup copies each page whose LSN is newer than the previous incremental or full backup’s LSN.
  • Incremental backups do not actually compare the data files to the previous backup’s data files.
  • you can use --incremental-lsn to perform an incremental backup without even having the previous backup, if you know its LSN
  • Incremental backups simply read the pages and compare their LSN to the last backup’s LSN.
  • without a full backup to act as a base, the incremental backups are useless.
  • The xtrabackup binary writes a file called xtrabackup_checkpoints into the backup’s target directory. This file contains a line showing the to_lsn, which is the database’s LSN at the end of the backup.
  • from_lsn is the starting LSN of the backup and for incremental it has to be the same as to_lsn (if it is the last checkpoint) of the previous/base backup.
  • If you do not use the --apply-log-only option to prevent the rollback phase, then your incremental backups will be useless.
  • run --prepare as usual, but prevent the rollback phase
  • If you restore it and start MySQL, InnoDB will detect that the rollback phase was not performed, and it will do that in the background, as it usually does for a crash recovery upon start.
  • xtrabackup --prepare --apply-log-only --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc1
  • The final data is in /data/backups/base, not in the incremental directory.
  • Do not run xtrabackup --prepare with the same incremental backup directory (the value of –incremental-dir) more than once.
  • xtrabackup --prepare --target-dir=/data/backups/base \ --incremental-dir=/data/backups/inc2
  • --apply-log-only should be used when merging all incrementals except the last one.
  • Even if the --apply-log-only was used on the last step, backup would still be consistent but in that case server would perform the rollback phase.

Replication - MongoDB Manual - 0 views

  • A replica set in MongoDB is a group of mongod processes that maintain the same data set.
  • Replica sets provide redundancy and high availability, and are the basis for all production deployments.
  • With multiple copies of data on different database servers, replication provides a level of fault tolerance against the loss of a single database server.
  • ...18 more annotations...
  • replication can provide increased read capacity as clients can send read operations to different servers.
  • A replica set is a group of mongod instances that maintain the same data set.
  • A replica set contains several data bearing nodes and optionally one arbiter node.
  • one and only one member is deemed the primary node, while the other nodes are deemed secondary nodes.
  • A replica set can have only one primary capable of confirming writes with { w: "majority" } write concern; although in some circumstances, another mongod instance may transiently believe itself to also be primary.
  • The secondaries replicate the primary’s oplog and apply the operations to their data sets such that the secondaries’ data sets reflect the primary’s data set
  • add a mongod instance to a replica set as an arbiter. An arbiter participates in elections but does not hold data
  • An arbiter will always be an arbiter whereas a primary may step down and become a secondary and a secondary may become the primary during an election.
  • Secondaries replicate the primary’s oplog and apply the operations to their data sets asynchronously.
  • These slow oplog messages are logged for the secondaries in the diagnostic log under the REPL component with the text applied op: <oplog entry> took <num>ms.
  • Replication lag refers to the amount of time that it takes to copy (i.e. replicate) a write operation on the primary to a secondary.
  • When a primary does not communicate with the other members of the set for more than the configured electionTimeoutMillis period (10 seconds by default), an eligible secondary calls for an election to nominate itself as the new primary.
  • The replica set cannot process write operations until the election completes successfully.
  • The median time before a cluster elects a new primary should not typically exceed 12 seconds, assuming default replica configuration settings.
  • Factors such as network latency may extend the time required for replica set elections to complete, which in turn affects the amount of time your cluster may operate without a primary.
  • Your application connection logic should include tolerance for automatic failovers and the subsequent elections.
  • MongoDB drivers can detect the loss of the primary and automatically retry certain write operations a single time, providing additional built-in handling of automatic failovers and elections
  • By default, clients read from the primary [1]; however, clients can specify a read preference to send read operations to secondaries.

The memory models that underlie programming languages - 0 views

  •  
    " There are about six major conceptualizations of memory, which I'm calling "memory models"², that dominate today's programming. Three of them derive from the three most historically important programming languages of the 1950s - COBOL, LISP, and FORTRAN - and the other three derive from the three historically important data storage systems: magnetic tape, Unix-style hierarchical filesystems, and relational databases."

Serverless Architectures - 0 views

  • Serverless was first used to describe applications that significantly or fully depend on 3rd party applications / services (‘in the cloud’) to manage server-side logic and state.
  • ‘rich client’ applications (think single page web apps, or mobile apps) that use the vast ecosystem of cloud accessible databases (like Parse, Firebase), authentication services (Auth0, AWS Cognito), etc.
  • ‘(Mobile) Backend as a Service’
  • ...33 more annotations...
  • Serverless can also mean applications where some amount of server-side logic is still written by the application developer but unlike traditional architectures is run in stateless compute containers that are event-triggered, ephemeral (may only last for one invocation), and fully managed by a 3rd party.
  • ‘Functions as a service
  • AWS Lambda is one of the most popular implementations of FaaS at present,
  • A good example is Auth0 - they started initially with BaaS ‘Authentication as a Service’, but with Auth0 Webtask they are entering the FaaS space.
  • a typical ecommerce app
  • a backend data-processing service
  • with zero administration.
  • FaaS offerings do not require coding to a specific framework or library.
  • Horizontal scaling is completely automatic, elastic, and managed by the provider
  • Functions in FaaS are triggered by event types defined by the provider.
  • a FaaS-supported message broker
  • from a deployment-unit point of view FaaS functions are stateless.
  • allowed the client direct access to a subset of our database
  • deleted the authentication logic in the original application and have replaced it with a third party BaaS service
  • The client is in fact well on its way to becoming a Single Page Application.
  • implement a FaaS function that responds to http requests via an API Gateway
  • port the search code from the Pet Store server to the Pet Store Search function
  • replaced a long lived consumer application with a FaaS function that runs within the event driven context
  • server applications - is a key difference when comparing with other modern architectural trends like containers and PaaS
  • the only code that needs to change when moving to FaaS is the ‘main method / startup’ code, in that it is deleted, and likely the specific code that is the top-level message handler (the ‘message listener interface’ implementation), but this might only be a change in method signature
  • With FaaS you need to write the function ahead of time to assume parallelism
  • Most providers also allow functions to be triggered as a response to inbound http requests, typically in some kind of API gateway
  • you should assume that for any given invocation of a function none of the in-process or host state that you create will be available to any subsequent invocation.
  • FaaS functions are either naturally stateless
  • store state across requests or for further input to handle a request.
  • certain classes of long lived task are not suited to FaaS functions without re-architecture
  • if you were writing a low-latency trading application you probably wouldn’t want to use FaaS systems at this time
  • An API Gateway is an HTTP server where routes / endpoints are defined in configuration and each route is associated with a FaaS function.
  • API Gateway will allow mapping from http request parameters to inputs arguments for the FaaS function
  • API Gateways may also perform authentication, input validation, response code mapping, etc.
  • the Serverless Framework makes working with API Gateway + Lambda significantly easier than using the first principles provided by AWS.
  • Apex - a project to ‘Build, deploy, and manage AWS Lambda functions with ease.'
  • 'Serverless' to mean the union of a couple of other ideas - 'Backend as a Service' and 'Functions as a Service'.

TMSU - 0 views

  •  
    "TMSU is a tool for tagging your files. It provides a simple command-line tool for applying tags and a virtual filesystem so that you can get a tag-based view of your files from within any other program. TMSU does not alter your files in any way: they remain unchanged on disk, or on the network, wherever you put them. TMSU maintains its own database and you simply gain an additional view, which you can mount, based upon the tags you set up. The only commitment required is your time and there's absolutely no lock-in."

Rails Routing from the Outside In - Ruby on Rails Guides - 0 views

  • Resource routing allows you to quickly declare all of the common routes for a given resourceful controller.
  • Rails would dispatch that request to the destroy method on the photos controller with { id: '17' } in params.
  • a resourceful route provides a mapping between HTTP verbs and URLs to controller actions.
  • ...86 more annotations...
  • each action also maps to particular CRUD operations in a database
  • resource :photo and resources :photos creates both singular and plural routes that map to the same controller (PhotosController).
  • One way to avoid deep nesting (as recommended above) is to generate the collection actions scoped under the parent, so as to get a sense of the hierarchy, but to not nest the member actions.
  • to only build routes with the minimal amount of information to uniquely identify the resource
  • The shallow method of the DSL creates a scope inside of which every nesting is shallow
  • These concerns can be used in resources to avoid code duplication and share behavior across routes
  • add a member route, just add a member block into the resource block
  • You can leave out the :on option, this will create the same member route except that the resource id value will be available in params[:photo_id] instead of params[:id].
  • Singular Resources
  • use a singular resource to map /profile (rather than /profile/:id) to the show action
  • Passing a String to get will expect a controller#action format
  • workaround
  • organize groups of controllers under a namespace
  • route /articles (without the prefix /admin) to Admin::ArticlesController
  • route /admin/articles to ArticlesController (without the Admin:: module prefix)
  • Nested routes allow you to capture this relationship in your routing.
  • helpers take an instance of Magazine as the first parameter (magazine_ads_url(@magazine)).
  • Resources should never be nested more than 1 level deep.
  • via the :shallow option
  • a balance between descriptive routes and deep nesting
  • :shallow_path prefixes member paths with the specified parameter
  • Routing Concerns allows you to declare common routes that can be reused inside other resources and routes
  • Rails can also create paths and URLs from an array of parameters.
  • use url_for with a set of objects
  • In helpers like link_to, you can specify just the object in place of the full url_for call
  • insert the action name as the first element of the array
  • This will recognize /photos/1/preview with GET, and route to the preview action of PhotosController, with the resource id value passed in params[:id]. It will also create the preview_photo_url and preview_photo_path helpers.
  • pass :on to a route, eliminating the block:
  • Collection Routes
  • This will enable Rails to recognize paths such as /photos/search with GET, and route to the search action of PhotosController. It will also create the search_photos_url and search_photos_path route helpers.
  • simple routing makes it very easy to map legacy URLs to new Rails actions
  • add an alternate new action using the :on shortcut
  • When you set up a regular route, you supply a series of symbols that Rails maps to parts of an incoming HTTP request.
  • :controller maps to the name of a controller in your application
  • :action maps to the name of an action within that controller
  • optional parameters, denoted by parentheses
  • This route will also route the incoming request of /photos to PhotosController#index, since :action and :id are
  • use a constraint on :controller that matches the namespace you require
  • dynamic segments don't accept dots
  • The params will also include any parameters from the query string
  • :defaults option.
  • set params[:format] to "jpg"
  • cannot override defaults via query parameters
  • specify a name for any route using the :as option
  • create logout_path and logout_url as named helpers in your application.
  • Inside the show action of UsersController, params[:username] will contain the username for the user.
  • should use the get, post, put, patch and delete methods to constrain a route to a particular verb.
  • use the match method with the :via option to match multiple verbs at once
  • Routing both GET and POST requests to a single action has security implications
  • 'GET' in Rails won't check for CSRF token. You should never write to the database from 'GET' requests
  • use the :constraints option to enforce a format for a dynamic segment
  • constraints
  • don't need to use anchors
  • Request-Based Constraints
  • the same name as the hash key and then compare the return value with the hash value.
  • constraint values should match the corresponding Request object method return type
    • 張 旭
       
      應該就是檢查來源的 request, 如果是某個特定的 request 來訪問的,就通過。
  • blacklist
    • 張 旭
       
      這裡有點複雜 ...
  • redirect helper
  • reuse dynamic segments from the match in the path to redirect
  • this redirection is a 301 "Moved Permanently" redirect.
  • root method
  • put the root route at the top of the file
  • The root route only routes GET requests to the action.
  • root inside namespaces and scopes
  • For namespaced controllers you can use the directory notation
  • Only the directory notation is supported
  • use the :constraints option to specify a required format on the implicit id
  • specify a single constraint to apply to a number of routes by using the block
  • non-resourceful routes
  • :id parameter doesn't accept dots
  • :as option lets you override the normal naming for the named route helpers
  • use the :as option to prefix the named route helpers that Rails generates for a rout
  • prevent name collisions
  • prefix routes with a named parameter
  • This will provide you with URLs such as /bob/articles/1 and will allow you to reference the username part of the path as params[:username] in controllers, helpers and views
  • :only option
  • :except option
  • generate only the routes that you actually need can cut down on memory use and speed up the routing process.
  • alter path names
  • http://localhost:3000/rails/info/routes
  • rake routes
  • setting the CONTROLLER environment variable
  • Routes should be included in your testing strategy
  • assert_generates assert_recognizes assert_routing

数据库水平分片心得 · ScienJus's Blog - 0 views

  • 水平分片(也叫水平分库)指的是将整体存储在单个数据库中的数据,通过某种策略分摊到多个表结构与其相同的数据库中,这样每个数据库中的数据量就会相对减少很多,并且可以部署在不同物理服务器上,理论上能够实现数据库的无限横向拓展。
  • 当遇到第一次数据库性能问题时,最先想到的方案应该是读写分离,将所有写操作都放在主数据库上,所有读操作都放在从数据库上
  • 配置一主多从
  • ...16 more annotations...
  • 主从关系(Master-Slave),此时所有操作还是由主数据库完成,主数据库再同步到从数据库上,而从数据库只需要在主数据库挂掉之后代替其工作。
  • 一般来说读写分离加上缓存已经可以应付绝大多数情况了,并且几乎不需要对业务层面进行修改。
  • 对数据库进行垂直分库,将业务彼此无关的表放在单独的数据库中,分库后不同库中的表无法进行联合查询等操作,但是可以平摊压力,并且独立做读写分离。
  • 对数据库进行水平分表,建立多个结构相同的表分摊数据,使得每个表的数据量减少从而提升速度。
  • 分表却只能在单台机器的单个数据库上,如果是服务器本身的性能达到瓶颈,则分表不会有明显作用。
  • 分表后各个子表还是可以通过 union 等命令联合查询,分库后则不行
  • 基于 id 的区间分片,例如:将 id 为 1-2w 的数据存放在 A 数据库,2w-4w 的数据存放在 B 数据库。
  • 基于 id 的 hash 分片,例如:将 id%2=0 的数据存放在 A 数据库,id%2=1 的数据放在 B 数据库。
  • 基于时间的区间分片,大部分软件都会有一个特征:越新的数据被操作的几率越大,老数据几乎不会被操作。所以通过数据的插入时间进行分库(也称为冷热分离)
  • 基于检索表分片,通过额外建立一张检索表保存 id 与所在数据库节点的对应关系,优点是逻辑简单,自由且不会有迁移问题,缺点是每次查询都需要额外查询检索表,所以一般会选择将检索表缓存到内存中。
  • 基于地理位置分片
  • 分库策略
  • 在数据库表设计时,为了保证 id 唯一,大部分人都会将主键设为自增的 int 类型。但是由于 auto\_increment 是和表所绑定的,所以在分库后每个表的自增 id 也是独立的。这样就肯定会发生主键冲突
  • 但是很多人都希望主键即使不是连续自增,也是一个有序的整数,这样在排序等情况下会有用。这时候就需要自己实现一个 id 生成算法了,一般都会使用 unix 时间戳保持有序,混入 Mac 地址等保证唯一。
  • 在分库情况下,需要将大部分联合查询都替换为至少两次查询,先从关联的表中查询出符合条件的 id,在根据 id 去对应的数据库里查询主体信息。
  • 数据库水平分片作为数据库性能瓶颈的最终解决方案,确实可以有效的解决这个问题。但是它将业务逻辑变得非常复杂(主要是关联表冗余和字段冗余,以及这些数据的更新),并且有分布式事务这个难题。所以不到必要时刻,尽量不要轻易尝试数据库分片。

Queues - Laravel - The PHP Framework For Web Artisans - 0 views

  • Laravel queues provide a unified API across a variety of different queue backends, such as Beanstalk, Amazon SQS, Redis, or even a relational database.
  • The queue configuration file is stored in config/queue.php
  • a synchronous driver that will execute jobs immediately (for local use)
  • ...56 more annotations...
  • A null queue driver is also included which discards queued jobs.
  • In your config/queue.php configuration file, there is a connections configuration option.
  • any given queue connection may have multiple "queues" which may be thought of as different stacks or piles of queued jobs.
  • each connection configuration example in the queue configuration file contains a queue attribute.
  • if you dispatch a job without explicitly defining which queue it should be dispatched to, the job will be placed on the queue that is defined in the queue attribute of the connection configuration
  • pushing jobs to multiple queues can be especially useful for applications that wish to prioritize or segment how jobs are processed
  • specify which queues it should process by priority.
  • If your Redis queue connection uses a Redis Cluster, your queue names must contain a key hash tag.
  • ensure all of the Redis keys for a given queue are placed into the same hash slot
  • all of the queueable jobs for your application are stored in the app/Jobs directory.
  • Job classes are very simple, normally containing only a handle method which is called when the job is processed by the queue.
  • we were able to pass an Eloquent model directly into the queued job's constructor. Because of the SerializesModels trait that the job is using, Eloquent models will be gracefully serialized and unserialized when the job is processing.
  • When the job is actually handled, the queue system will automatically re-retrieve the full model instance from the database.
  • The handle method is called when the job is processed by the queue
  • The arguments passed to the dispatch method will be given to the job's constructor
  • delay the execution of a queued job, you may use the delay method when dispatching a job.
  • dispatch a job immediately (synchronously), you may use the dispatchNow method.
  • When using this method, the job will not be queued and will be run immediately within the current process
  • specify a list of queued jobs that should be run in sequence.
  • Deleting jobs using the $this->delete() method will not prevent chained jobs from being processed. The chain will only stop executing if a job in the chain fails.
  • this does not push jobs to different queue "connections" as defined by your queue configuration file, but only to specific queues within a single connection.
  • To specify the queue, use the onQueue method when dispatching the job
  • To specify the connection, use the onConnection method when dispatching the job
  • defining the maximum number of attempts on the job class itself.
  • to defining how many times a job may be attempted before it fails, you may define a time at which the job should timeout.
  • using the funnel method, you may limit jobs of a given type to only be processed by one worker at a time
  • using the throttle method, you may throttle a given type of job to only run 10 times every 60 seconds.
  • If an exception is thrown while the job is being processed, the job will automatically be released back onto the queue so it may be attempted again.
  • dispatch a Closure. This is great for quick, simple tasks that need to be executed outside of the current request cycle
  • When dispatching Closures to the queue, the Closure's code contents is cryptographically signed so it can not be modified in transit.
  • Laravel includes a queue worker that will process new jobs as they are pushed onto the queue.
  • once the queue:work command has started, it will continue to run until it is manually stopped or you close your terminal
  • queue workers are long-lived processes and store the booted application state in memory.
  • they will not notice changes in your code base after they have been started.
  • during your deployment process, be sure to restart your queue workers.
  • customize your queue worker even further by only processing particular queues for a given connection
  • The --once option may be used to instruct the worker to only process a single job from the queue
  • The --stop-when-empty option may be used to instruct the worker to process all jobs and then exit gracefully.
  • Daemon queue workers do not "reboot" the framework before processing each job.
  • you should free any heavy resources after each job completes.
  • Since queue workers are long-lived processes, they will not pick up changes to your code without being restarted.
  • restart the workers during your deployment process.
  • php artisan queue:restart
  • The queue uses the cache to store restart signals
  • the queue workers will die when the queue:restart command is executed, you should be running a process manager such as Supervisor to automatically restart the queue workers.
  • each queue connection defines a retry_after option. This option specifies how many seconds the queue connection should wait before retrying a job that is being processed.
  • The --timeout option specifies how long the Laravel queue master process will wait before killing off a child queue worker that is processing a job.
  • When jobs are available on the queue, the worker will keep processing jobs with no delay in between them.
  • While sleeping, the worker will not process any new jobs - the jobs will be processed after the worker wakes up again
  • the numprocs directive will instruct Supervisor to run 8 queue:work processes and monitor all of them, automatically restarting them if they fail.
  • Laravel includes a convenient way to specify the maximum number of times a job should be attempted.
  • define a failed method directly on your job class, allowing you to perform job specific clean-up when a failure occurs.
  • a great opportunity to notify your team via email or Slack.
  • php artisan queue:retry all
  • php artisan queue:flush
  • When injecting an Eloquent model into a job, it is automatically serialized before being placed on the queue and restored when the job is processed

Intro to deployment strategies: blue-green, canary, and more - DEV Community - 0 views

  • 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.

ProxySQL Experimental Feature: Native ProxySQL Clustering - Percona Database Performanc... - 0 views

  • several ProxySQL instances to communicate with and share configuration updates with each other.
  • 4 tables where you can make changes and propagate the configuration
  • When you make a change like INSERT/DELETE/UPDATE on any of these tables, after running the command LOAD … TO RUNTIME , ProxySQL creates a new checksum of the table’s data and increments the version number in the table runtime_checksums_values
  • ...2 more annotations...
  • all nodes are monitoring and communicating with all the other ProxySQL nodes. When another node detects a change in the checksum and version (both at the same time), each node will get a copy of the table that was modified, make the same changes locally, and apply the new config to RUNTIME to refresh the new config, make it visible to the applications connected and automatically save it to DISK for persistence.
  • a “synchronous cluster” so any changes to these 4 tables on any ProxySQL server will be replicated to all other ProxySQL nodes.

  • A chart is a collection of files that describe a related set of Kubernetes resources.
  • A single chart might be used to deploy something simple, like a memcached pod, or something complex, like a full web app stack with HTTP servers, databases, caches, and so on.
  • Charts are created as files laid out in a particular directory tree, then they can be packaged into versioned archives to be deployed.
  • ...170 more annotations...
  • A chart is organized as a collection of files inside of a directory.
  • values.yaml # The default configuration values for this chart
  • charts/ # A directory containing any charts upon which this chart depends.
  • templates/ # A directory of templates that, when combined with values, # will generate valid Kubernetes manifest files.
  • version: A SemVer 2 version (required)
  • apiVersion: The chart API version, always "v1" (required)
  • Every chart must have a version number. A version must follow the SemVer 2 standard.
  • non-SemVer names are explicitly disallowed by the system.
  • When generating a package, the helm package command will use the version that it finds in the Chart.yaml as a token in the package name.
  • the appVersion field is not related to the version field. It is a way of specifying the version of the application.
  • appVersion: The version of the app that this contains (optional). This needn't be SemVer.
  • If the latest version of a chart in the repository is marked as deprecated, then the chart as a whole is considered to be deprecated.
  • deprecated: Whether this chart is deprecated (optional, boolean)
  • one chart may depend on any number of other charts.
  • dependencies can be dynamically linked through the requirements.yaml file or brought in to the charts/ directory and managed manually.
  • the preferred method of declaring dependencies is by using a requirements.yaml file inside of your chart.
  • A requirements.yaml file is a simple file for listing your dependencies.
  • The repository field is the full URL to the chart repository.
  • you must also use helm repo add to add that repo locally.
  • helm dependency update and it will use your dependency file to download all the specified charts into your charts/ directory for you.
  • When helm dependency update retrieves charts, it will store them as chart archives in the charts/ directory.
  • Managing charts with requirements.yaml is a good way to easily keep charts updated, and also share requirements information throughout a team.
  • All charts are loaded by default.
  • The condition field holds one or more YAML paths (delimited by commas). If this path exists in the top parent’s values and resolves to a boolean value, the chart will be enabled or disabled based on that boolean value.
  • The tags field is a YAML list of labels to associate with this chart.
  • all charts with tags can be enabled or disabled by specifying the tag and a boolean value.
  • The --set parameter can be used as usual to alter tag and condition values.
  • Conditions (when set in values) always override tags.
  • The first condition path that exists wins and subsequent ones for that chart are ignored.
  • The keys containing the values to be imported can be specified in the parent chart’s requirements.yaml file using a YAML list. Each item in the list is a key which is imported from the child chart’s exports field.
  • specifying the key data in our import list, Helm looks in the exports field of the child chart for data key and imports its contents.
  • the parent key data is not contained in the parent’s final values. If you need to specify the parent key, use the ‘child-parent’ format.
  • To access values that are not contained in the exports key of the child chart’s values, you will need to specify the source key of the values to be imported (child) and the destination path in the parent chart’s values (parent).
  • To drop a dependency into your charts/ directory, use the helm fetch command
  • A dependency can be either a chart archive (foo-1.2.3.tgz) or an unpacked chart directory.
  • name cannot start with _ or .. Such files are ignored by the chart loader.
  • a single release is created with all the objects for the chart and its dependencies.
  • Helm Chart templates are written in the Go template language, with the addition of 50 or so add-on template functions from the Sprig library and a few other specialized functions
  • When Helm renders the charts, it will pass every file in that directory through the template engine.
  • Chart developers may supply a file called values.yaml inside of a chart. This file can contain default values.
  • Chart users may supply a YAML file that contains values. This can be provided on the command line with helm install.
  • When a user supplies custom values, these values will override the values in the chart’s values.yaml file.
  • Template files follow the standard conventions for writing Go templates
  • {{default "minio" .Values.storage}}
  • Values that are supplied via a values.yaml file (or via the --set flag) are accessible from the .Values object in a template.
  • pre-defined, are available to every template, and cannot be overridden
  • the names are case sensitive
  • Release.Name: The name of the release (not the chart)
  • Release.IsUpgrade: This is set to true if the current operation is an upgrade or rollback.
  • Release.Revision: The revision number. It begins at 1, and increments with each helm upgrade
  • Chart: The contents of the Chart.yaml
  • Files: A map-like object containing all non-special files in the chart.
  • Files can be accessed using {{index .Files "file.name"}} or using the {{.Files.Get name}} or {{.Files.GetString name}} functions.
  • .helmignore
  • access the contents of the file as []byte using {{.Files.GetBytes}}
  • Any unknown Chart.yaml fields will be dropped
  • Chart.yaml cannot be used to pass arbitrarily structured data into the template.
  • A values file is formatted in YAML.
  • A chart may include a default values.yaml file
  • be merged into the default values file.
  • The default values file included inside of a chart must be named values.yaml
  • accessible inside of templates using the .Values object
  • Values files can declare values for the top-level chart, as well as for any of the charts that are included in that chart’s charts/ directory.
  • Charts at a higher level have access to all of the variables defined beneath.
  • lower level charts cannot access things in parent charts
  • Values are namespaced, but namespaces are pruned.
  • the scope of the values has been reduced and the namespace prefix removed
  • Helm supports special “global” value.
  • a way of sharing one top-level variable with all subcharts, which is useful for things like setting metadata properties like labels.
  • If a subchart declares a global variable, that global will be passed downward (to the subchart’s subcharts), but not upward to the parent chart.
  • global variables of parent charts take precedence over the global variables from subcharts.
  • helm lint
  • A chart repository is an HTTP server that houses one or more packaged charts
  • Any HTTP server that can serve YAML files and tar files and can answer GET requests can be used as a repository server.
  • Helm does not provide tools for uploading charts to remote repository servers.
  • the only way to add a chart to $HELM_HOME/starters is to manually copy it there.
  • Helm provides a hook mechanism to allow chart developers to intervene at certain points in a release’s life cycle.
  • Execute a Job to back up a database before installing a new chart, and then execute a second job after the upgrade in order to restore data.
  • Hooks are declared as an annotation in the metadata section of a manifest
  • Hooks work like regular templates, but they have special annotations
  • pre-install
  • post-install: Executes after all resources are loaded into Kubernetes
  • pre-delete
  • post-delete: Executes on a deletion request after all of the release’s resources have been deleted.
  • pre-upgrade
  • post-upgrade
  • pre-rollback
  • post-rollback: Executes on a rollback request after all resources have been modified.
  • crd-install
  • test-success: Executes when running helm test and expects the pod to return successfully (return code == 0).
  • test-failure: Executes when running helm test and expects the pod to fail (return code != 0).
  • Hooks allow you, the chart developer, an opportunity to perform operations at strategic points in a release lifecycle
  • Tiller then loads the hook with the lowest weight first (negative to positive)
  • Tiller returns the release name (and other data) to the client
  • If the resources is a Job kind, Tiller will wait until the job successfully runs to completion.
  • if the job fails, the release will fail. This is a blocking operation, so the Helm client will pause while the Job is run.
  • If they have hook weights (see below), they are executed in weighted order. Otherwise, ordering is not guaranteed.
  • good practice to add a hook weight, and set it to 0 if weight is not important.
  • The resources that a hook creates are not tracked or managed as part of the release.
  • leave the hook resource alone.
  • To destroy such resources, you need to either write code to perform this operation in a pre-delete or post-delete hook or add "helm.sh/hook-delete-policy" annotation to the hook template file.
  • Hooks are just Kubernetes manifest files with special annotations in the metadata section
  • One resource can implement multiple hooks
  • no limit to the number of different resources that may implement a given hook.
  • When subcharts declare hooks, those are also evaluated. There is no way for a top-level chart to disable the hooks declared by subcharts.
  • Hook weights can be positive or negative numbers but must be represented as strings.
  • sort those hooks in ascending order.
  • Hook deletion policies
  • "before-hook-creation" specifies Tiller should delete the previous hook before the new hook is launched.
  • By default Tiller will wait for 60 seconds for a deleted hook to no longer exist in the API server before timing out.
  • Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) are a special kind in Kubernetes.
  • The crd-install hook is executed very early during an installation, before the rest of the manifests are verified.
  • A common reason why the hook resource might already exist is that it was not deleted following use on a previous install/upgrade.
  • Helm uses Go templates for templating your resource files.
  • two special template functions: include and required
  • include function allows you to bring in another template, and then pass the results to other template functions.
  • The required function allows you to declare a particular values entry as required for template rendering.
  • If the value is empty, the template rendering will fail with a user submitted error message.
  • When you are working with string data, you are always safer quoting the strings than leaving them as bare words
  • Quote Strings, Don’t Quote Integers
  • when working with integers do not quote the values
  • env variables values which are expected to be string
  • to include a template, and then perform an operation on that template’s output, Helm has a special include function
  • The above includes a template called toYaml, passes it $value, and then passes the output of that template to the nindent function.
  • Go provides a way for setting template options to control behavior when a map is indexed with a key that’s not present in the map
  • The required function gives developers the ability to declare a value entry as required for template rendering.
  • The tpl function allows developers to evaluate strings as templates inside a template.
  • Rendering a external configuration file
  • (.Files.Get "conf/app.conf")
  • Image pull secrets are essentially a combination of registry, username, and password.
  • Automatically Roll Deployments When ConfigMaps or Secrets change
  • configmaps or secrets are injected as configuration files in containers
  • a restart may be required should those be updated with a subsequent helm upgrade
  • The sha256sum function can be used to ensure a deployment’s annotation section is updated if another file changes
  • checksum/config: {{ include (print $.Template.BasePath "/configmap.yaml") . | sha256sum }}
  • helm upgrade --recreate-pods
  • "helm.sh/resource-policy": keep
  • resources that should not be deleted when Helm runs a helm delete
  • this resource becomes orphaned. Helm will no longer manage it in any way.
  • create some reusable parts in your chart
  • In the templates/ directory, any file that begins with an underscore(_) is not expected to output a Kubernetes manifest file.
  • by convention, helper templates and partials are placed in a _helpers.tpl file.
  • The current best practice for composing a complex application from discrete parts is to create a top-level umbrella chart that exposes the global configurations, and then use the charts/ subdirectory to embed each of the components.
  • SAP’s Converged charts: These charts install SAP Converged Cloud a full OpenStack IaaS on Kubernetes. All of the charts are collected together in one GitHub repository, except for a few submodules.
  • Deis’s Workflow: This chart exposes the entire Deis PaaS system with one chart. But it’s different from the SAP chart in that this umbrella chart is built from each component, and each component is tracked in a different Git repository.
  • YAML is a superset of JSON
  • any valid JSON structure ought to be valid in YAML.
  • As a best practice, templates should follow a YAML-like syntax unless the JSON syntax substantially reduces the risk of a formatting issue.
  • There are functions in Helm that allow you to generate random data, cryptographic keys, and so on.
  • a chart repository is a location where packaged charts can be stored and shared.
  • A chart repository is an HTTP server that houses an index.yaml file and optionally some packaged charts.
  • Because a chart repository can be any HTTP server that can serve YAML and tar files and can answer GET requests, you have a plethora of options when it comes down to hosting your own chart repository.
  • It is not required that a chart package be located on the same server as the index.yaml file.
  • A valid chart repository must have an index file. The index file contains information about each chart in the chart repository.
  • The Helm project provides an open-source Helm repository server called ChartMuseum that you can host yourself.
  • $ helm repo index fantastic-charts --url https://fantastic-charts.storage.googleapis.com
  • A repository will not be added if it does not contain a valid index.yaml
  • add the repository to their helm client via the helm repo add [NAME] [URL] command with any name they would like to use to reference the repository.
  • Helm has provenance tools which help chart users verify the integrity and origin of a package.
  • Integrity is established by comparing a chart to a provenance record
  • The provenance file contains a chart’s YAML file plus several pieces of verification information
  • Chart repositories serve as a centralized collection of Helm charts.
  • Chart repositories must make it possible to serve provenance files over HTTP via a specific request, and must make them available at the same URI path as the chart.
  • We don’t want to be “the certificate authority” for all chart signers. Instead, we strongly favor a decentralized model, which is part of the reason we chose OpenPGP as our foundational technology.
  • The Keybase platform provides a public centralized repository for trust information.
  • A chart contains a number of Kubernetes resources and components that work together.
  • A test in a helm chart lives under the templates/ directory and is a pod definition that specifies a container with a given command to run.
  • The pod definition must contain one of the helm test hook annotations: helm.sh/hook: test-success or helm.sh/hook: test-failure
  • helm test
  • nest your test suite under a tests/ directory like <chart-name>/templates/tests/

  • MySQL Group Replication provides distributed state machine replication with strong coordination between servers.
  • Servers coordinate themselves automatically when they are part of the same group
  • The group can operate in a single-primary mode with automatic primary election, where only one server accepts updates at a time.
  • For a transaction to commit, the majority of the group have to agree on the order of a given transaction in the global sequence of transactions
  • Deciding to commit or abort a transaction is done by each server individually, but all servers make the same decision

An Introduction to HAProxy and Load Balancing Concepts | DigitalOcean - 0 views

  • HAProxy, which stands for High Availability Proxy
  • improve the performance and reliability of a server environment by distributing the workload across multiple servers (e.g. web, application, database).
  • ACLs are used to test some condition and perform an action (e.g. select a server, or block a request) based on the test result.
  • ...28 more annotations...
  • Access Control List (ACL)
  • ACLs allows flexible network traffic forwarding based on a variety of factors like pattern-matching and the number of connections to a backend
  • A backend is a set of servers that receives forwarded requests
  • adding more servers to your backend will increase your potential load capacity by spreading the load over multiple servers
  • mode http specifies that layer 7 proxying will be used
  • specifies the load balancing algorithm
  • health checks
  • A frontend defines how requests should be forwarded to backends
  • use_backend rules, which define which backends to use depending on which ACL conditions are matched, and/or a default_backend rule that handles every other case
  • A frontend can be configured to various types of network traffic
  • Load balancing this way will forward user traffic based on IP range and port
  • Generally, all of the servers in the web-backend should be serving identical content--otherwise the user might receive inconsistent content.
  • Using layer 7 allows the load balancer to forward requests to different backend servers based on the content of the user's request.
  • allows you to run multiple web application servers under the same domain and port
  • acl url_blog path_beg /blog matches a request if the path of the user's request begins with /blog.
  • Round Robin selects servers in turns
  • Selects the server with the least number of connections--it is recommended for longer sessions
  • This selects which server to use based on a hash of the source IP
  • ensure that a user will connect to the same server
  • require that a user continues to connect to the same backend server. This persistence is achieved through sticky sessions, using the appsession parameter in the backend that requires it.
  • HAProxy uses health checks to determine if a backend server is available to process requests.
  • The default health check is to try to establish a TCP connection to the server
  • If a server fails a health check, and therefore is unable to serve requests, it is automatically disabled in the backend
  • For certain types of backends, like database servers in certain situations, the default health check is insufficient to determine whether a server is still healthy.
  • However, your load balancer is a single point of failure in these setups; if it goes down or gets overwhelmed with requests, it can cause high latency or downtime for your service.
  • A high availability (HA) setup is an infrastructure without a single point of failure
  • a static IP address that can be remapped from one server to another.
  • If that load balancer fails, your failover mechanism will detect it and automatically reassign the IP address to one of the passive servers.
