hi will, what logging system do you use for nodejs apps? also, i would love to see a video from you on how you implement least privilege security measure when deploying postgres to prod. am about to deploy an app with postgres to prod. please throw some advice for me if you have some. also, since you are VERY well educated with all things AWS, is it ideal to go with self maintained linode instance for a postgres deployment or you would advice amazon RDS (postgres), the app is expected to have roughly 200 visitors (humans)👦👧 at max. 😅 THANKS ALOT. ☺
Hey! Alrighty then, let's unpack this: LEGAL DISCLAIMER: this is not financial advice. It may not even be good advice. Just my thoughts 🤣 Logging for nodejs: deploy on ECS Fargate & ship the logs to Cloudwatch Logs. Quick & easy. Worry about advanced logging features when you *need* advanced logging features. Least privilege postgres video: added to the list Linode or RDS: Go with RDS. They are going to handle backups, upgrades, etc for you. If you go with Linode, you'll need to expose your database publicly or setup a VPC peering connection. I hate leaving databases publicly exposed (but hackers love it when you do) 200 max users: that's a great spot to be, don't overthink it. You can run something on your phone that meets that demand. Don't over-architect it and focus on getting that number to 200,000, then architect based on what you've learned.
@@DevOpsForDevelopers Thanks alot, i'd be learning alot and since i've been avoiding Aws, its time to face it and conquer it! 😂😂 and btw is it me or AWS has a terrible UI team that designed the IAM page, its soo disgusting but its functional, it even makes learning IAM feel like sth old and cluncky that you just want to avoid, its drives me crazy! GCP has the best UI amongst all cloud providers and it makes me want to learn GCP more than AWS. Thanks alot for sharing your thoughts.
Definitely not you, the AWS interface needs much love. I want to complain, but I don't because every time I'm using the AWS console I'm doing something that I *really* should be doing as Infrastructure as Code, so it's kind of my fault for being there. 🤣 I've got a video coming out soon that will show you how to manage your IAM users with Terraform and never touch the AWS console. Bonus: it also sets you up to do the same with GCP so you can manage both from 1 file.
Hello, you have a great channel. As a devops professional, can you recommend a good practical course from scratch to devops engineer or resources?, step by step and practice to go all the way to work my dream devops engineer
Unfortunately, that is a really hard question to answer because IMO, the right answer is based on your current skill level, experience, and goals. BUT: that's why I built the DevOps Roadmap. I built it so that you can either identify something you already know, or identify something you're interested in, study it, then see how it relates to other areas of DevOps and pick a logical path to pursue next. You can check it out at devopsfordevelopers.io/roadmap
@@DevOpsForDevelopers is devops sustainable job? Please give a straight forward answer. & Thanks for keeping the comment section active by actively replying. This helps really.
I'll be 100% unfiltered here. (always try to be) Yeah, it's 100% sustainable. **But** we gotta agree on the definition of "sustainable." You can have a long, rewarding career in DevOps. I've actually bet my career on it. That said, you'll be doing different things for your entire career. In 10 years, you probably won't be using Kubernetes, Docker, or many other tools we use today. Things change and evolve, and so must your skills for this to be a sustainable career. If your definition of sustainable means "go to school, learn the trade, get a job, and 40 hours/week and paid vacation for the rest of your career", this is not the field for you. If those are your goals, I recommend avoiding all tech-related careers. Technology, by definition, is constantly changing. To remain relevant and employable, you will spend the rest of your career balancing working to produce income today + learning to produce income for tomorrow. TL;DR: yeah. The jobs will be there. They will look different years from now than today, but they will be there. More important than that, though, is it's on you to keep your skills up to date to take advantage of them.

How can devsecops be used in a COTS use case
are you using Snyk free or paid one?
Paid
I got 'aha' moment here. Keep it up will 🙏🔨
Right on!
Thanks for the info! Are you able to do a video how you deal with dev ops burnout?
Yeah. You feeling burned out?
Oh yea! For sure, with travel and OT. The burn out can be real!
🌾🐐
bro forgot that the intern considered it as good that he pushed the code to production which caused global tech outage crowdstrike today
your roadmap is not working , not sending mail
Do DevOps Earn More than Software engineers? I men like the one who code all the day?
It's about the same for the two as an average. When it comes to salary, the biggest contributing factor is your ability to negotiate.
