In part 1 of this tutorial, we briefly looked at the concept of canary deployments, and installed Jenkins and Prometheus on an EKS-based Kubernetes cluster. In this part, we will setup Spinnaker using AWS S3 as its backend. After enabling canary deployment functionality we'll set up a canary pipeline to test our basic service.
Canary deployments with Spinnaker and Kubernetes – Part 1
In this two-part post, I'm going to explore the setup of Spinnaker on AWS EKS to do canary deployments. Our end goal will be to deploy an extremely simple golang web service that will test for increased latency post-deployment, and rollback the deployment if we exceed a certain threshold.
ComponentsConf 2019
A couple of weeks ago I attended ComponentsConf 2019 in Melbourne, Australia. This conference focuses on JavaScript frameworks, and I was pretty excited to attend it. This is because over the last year I have been working on a component library to be shared across a number of projects. It needs to work in everything from Drupal to Angular, and we're still trying to find the best foundation to build it on. A conference that is framework-agnostic seemed like a good place to learn more about the options that are available.
