Kubernetes:
- TIL in a k8s pod when you define env vars, if you define the same env var twice, the latter one takes precendence
- how resource quotas work in k8s - fun Terraform:
- (very) Old terraform version doesn’t give two hoots about ami id. No infrastructure changes. Green. Truly lawless behaviour Kafka:
- Kafka Connect Framework and Kafka MirrorMaker 2 - connect anything to kafka and mirror the whole cluster respectively
- automq makes your kafka backed by s3, lot of failure modes avoided this way
Identity / Standards:
- about the System for Cross-domain Identity Management (SCIM) specification
- works great for entire user lifecycle management
- standard protocol that simplifies how organizations manage and exchange user identity information between systems
- unlike SAML which mostly is used for the login flow, SCIM scope is much more. ex: a user is decomissioned
