spring has these really great concepts called interceptors and filters that can be applied before a request hits your controller. they seem like an ideal place to do hmac validation but apparently HttpServletRequest doesn't cache the request body in any way so once you read it it's gone forever and you can't reassign the body back into the request in any way so now i'm making a hmac validation utility and calling it from the first line of all my controllers rather than doing it the way i want

Sapozhnik posted:k8s and docker have a legitimate use in situations where you've got 10,000 applications and 10,000 servers and installing all those applications on all those servers isn't really practical, so you want to decouple applications from the physical servers they are installed and running on. classic tools like rpm are too heavy and static and single-instance-focused to usefully accomplish this. well constructed golden images were the pinnacle of server management and i'll fight anyone who disagrees kubernetes has largely just turned that concept into a herd of pets managing cattle containers while the ops team tears their hair out making sure that all of k8s's inscrutable internals are working correctly so the fleet of 10,000 containers serving a fart app can continue to run

Ploft-shell crab posted:yes, that’s exactly the point. instead of ops managing several different kinds of pets, it manages just one kind of pet. so in the interest of consistent environments (which we already have because chef/ansible/salt are a thing) ops is now on the hook for making sure that a set of beautiful pet k8s masters and nodes can never ever go down. tell me again how that's better than golden images with sensible autoscaling and instance termination on app failure?

there's a middle ground where you can build microservices and not use docker or kubernetes and still get consistent, reproducible builds of both the app and the environment it does take a level of discipline that very few companies have though

i used to be of the opinion that queues between services let you reasonably distribute work to n number of consumers of m types and decouple services but all you end up doing is adding an unbounded, ephemeral transport between services which means you have to continually monitor scaling and queue depth to identify bottlenecks and can't actually apply back-pressure from the consumer contrast this with http/rpc/whatever calls to a load balancer with each services maintaining internal queues for re-work in case the downstream service applies back-pressure and imo it's pretty clear that all a queue does is provide non-durable storage outside of individual transaction handling at the operational expense of maintaining an opaque system that's really easy to tip over (i'm looking at you rabbitmq)

yep that's exactly right. it's hard to tell what an appropriate capacity for an es cluster is based on volume/storage needs until you tip it over, adjust, tip it over again, and then keep adjusting. there are some ok tools for understanding shard allocation and replication but no real silver bullet for any of it.

modern javascript is fine as a language although the stdlib is tiny because browsers the ecosystem that came up because of the tiny stdlib, the lack of standardized build targets, and the entire thing running on the client is javascript's shame
