Vitess is a database clustering system for horizontal scaling of MySQL through generalized sharding.

By encapsulating shard-routing logic, Vitess allows application code and database queries to remain agnostic to the distribution of data onto multiple shards. With Vitess, you can even split and merge shards as your needs grow, with an atomic cutover step that takes only a few seconds.

Vitess has been a core component of YouTube's database infrastructure since 2011, and has grown to encompass tens of thousands of MySQL nodes.

This is an introduction to the modern web loading performance. Learn why performance is important, what performance optimizations exist and what tools help to understand if your app is doing well.

Earthly is a build automation tool for the container era. It allows you to execute all your builds in containers. This makes them self-contained, reproducible, portable and parallel. You can use Earthly to create Docker images and artifacts (eg binaries, packages, arbitrary files).

I’m excited to introduce a new Kubernetes distro called k0s. It is created by the team behind Lens, the Kubernetes IDE project. This new open source project is the spiritual successor to the Pharos Kubernetes distro that was also developed and maintained by the team. I like to say that k0s does for Kubernetes what Docker did for containers.

k0s is a modern, 100% upstream vanila Kubernetes distro that is designed and packaged without compromise. It is broadly applicable from local development to large scale production deployments. It runs anywhere and everywhere, with no dependencies, and 1 line installation.

This guide will walk you through the process of configuring a production-grade Kubernetes cluster on AWS.

ripgrep is a line-oriented search tool that recursively searches your current directory for a regex pattern. By default, ripgrep will respect your .gitignore and automatically skip hidden files/directories and binary files.

Remove all resources from an AWS account.

This repo contains a Terraform module for running a Kubernetes cluster on Google Cloud Platform (GCP) using Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE).

kubergrunt is a standalone go binary with a collection of commands that attempts to fill in the gaps between Terraform, Helm, and Kubectl for managing a Kubernetes Cluster.
