Monthly Snap November 2022

von Catharina Celikel | Dez 9, 2022 | NETWAYS

November is traditionally the month of the Open Source Monitoring Conference, and this year was no exception. As always it was an extraordinary event for the community and definitely a highlight in 2022. So naturally, many of our blogs this month revolve around the OSMC. (Such as when Marc R., David and Lorenz recapped Day 1, 2 and 3 of the conference!). But we have some other gems for you too!

Kubernetes release!

The release of Kubernetes v1.24 and v1.25 brings many changes with it, and Justin provided a thorough description of the biggest changes. He also recommends creating a test cluster before updating.

Graylog news

Daniel told us about the current changes regarding Graylog and taught us about the reasons for Opensearch and which version is supported by Graylog.

NWS Data Centers – your concerns

In these difficult times we take your concerns seriously, and Stefan explained how we secure your data and how even electricity outages are prevented.

What else have we got for you?

Get to know Jonas and Jan in our Blog Series NETWAYS stellt sich vor, Michael pulled a talk from stackconf from the archives for us, Katja let us know that we now offer trainings on Prometheus! Dirk informed us of an Update for Red Hat Enterprise Linux with Leapp, Martin explained what the Icinga Developer Subscription is, Christian planned Prometheus Webinars for 2023, Daniel P. talked about automating Icinga for Windows with Ansible, Markus O. explained options for Ansible Continuous Deployment without AWX/ Tower/ AAP and last, but not least, Katja baked for us in our blog series NETWAYS Chefs!

So much has happened in the last few weeks, but most importantly NETWAYS celebrated its 27^th birthday! And what a birthday party it was, with a delicious cake and lots of pizza. And our new apprentices have started! It has only been a few weeks, but it already feels like they are exactly were they belong.

Thilo is back again with advice regarding Ansible. He recommends Molecule to test Ansible code and gave us detailed input on how to get started with it, and how to avoid common mistakes in the process.

Get started with Prometheus

Prometheus is a monitoring software and Martin K. told us more about how to monitor Kubernetes with it. But Prometheus can do more then just that, so Martin presented various packages you can obtain to learn more about all the possibilities. You can also find the Webinar in our YouTube channel!

NETWAYS Chefs – Luxshana kocht ein pikantes Reisgericht

von Catharina Celikel | Sep 23, 2022 | NETWAYS

This entry is part 11 of 17 in the series NETWAYS Chefs

Wie bereits bekannt, essen wir bei NETWAYS sehr gerne. Da ist es ja eigentlich nur logisch, dass auch viele von uns gut kochen können! Diesmal stellt Luxshana ein Reisgericht vor. Sie kocht es sehr gerne weil es nicht nur gut schmeckt, sondern sich auch hervorragend zum Mitnehmen zur Arbeit eignet. Kurz aufgewärmt und schon hat sie ein richtig gutes Mittagessen.

Du brauchst:

Gekochter Reis (einfach 250g von deinem Lieblingsreis kochen)

Eine Hähnchenbrust

Ca 1/2 Paprika

2-3 Champignons

1 kleine Karotte

1 Frühlingszwiebel

Eine Handvoll Weißkohl

Und nun das Wichtigste: die Gewürze:

Sojasoße

Chillipulver

Curry

Paprika

Kurkuma

Pfeffer

Salz

Und so geht es!

Das Gemüse klein hacken und das Fleisch in Mundgerechte Stücke schneiden
Zuerst das Fleisch in der Pfanne angebraten und dann das Gemüse hinzufügen
Die Gewürze dazugeben (Menge je nach Geschmack)
Den gekochten Reis unterrühren
Dann mit Salz, Pfeffer und Sojasoße abschmecken

Wenn das Gericht ein Bisschen ziehen darf vermischen sich die Gewürze mit allen Zutaten und alleine vom Duft bekommt man Hunger!

Tipp:

Wer es nicht so gerne scharf mag kann einen Teil vom Chili wegnehmen, und wer es lieber vegetarisch mag lässt das Fleisch einfach weg.

Men Fazit:

Ein vielseitiges Gericht, bei dem man Gemüse der Saison verarbeiten kann und es schmeckt super lecker!

Viel Spaß beim Nachkochen!

Monthly Snap August 2022

von Catharina Celikel | Sep 2, 2022 | NETWAYS

August was a bit calmer than the previous month with no summer party, no conferences, and not even a tiny trip to Amsterdam! But we had a good month anyway. Manfred, a former colleague, now pensioner, made sure we had loads of ice cream for the summer (Thank you Manfred!), and we happily enjoyed it on our rooftop along with our iced coffee. (Yes, we are definitely spoiled!)

But we also wrote lots of good content for you! Three of our top-blogs were:

Collaboration with Nextcloud

Is Nextcloud just another cloud solution? Evidently not! Stefan let us in on the possibilities for collaboration with our Nextcloud, such as sharing within a team, working on the same project, and even for videoconferences and messaging.

Read about all the possibilities and test it for free!

Guacamole and Icinga Web 2

Guacamole?? What is it and what has it got to do with Icinga Web 2? Saeid first explained the basics, and then showed us how to get remote access to Linux and Windows systems in Icinga Web 2- with a little help from Guacamole!

Check it out!

Mattermost

What is this Mattermost that everyone is talking about? Leonie told us of this communications tool, which is not only great for internal communication in a company, but also for collaboration in projekts, and- great for IT companies- with loads of templates you can adjust to your wishes!

And the best part: You can test it for free for 30 days risk free!

But of course there was more than just those:

Katja thanked our stackconf sponsors and partners, Philipp taught us about the Openstack Traefik provider, Katja shared talks from last years´ OSMC, Feu reported from the Icinga Camp in Berlin, Katja announced that the stackconf archives are now online.

Isi reported that the HWgroup Ares 10 is no longer in production, Martin K. announced the release of Icinga Director branches, Patrick taught us how to Shellscript our own Little Free Intrusion Detection System with Detector OSS IDS.

In NETWAYS stellt sich vor you can get to know Marc R., Katja announced that the agenda for the DevOpsDays 2022 in Berlin is available and Julia cooked a lemony pasta dish in our blog series NETWAYS Chefs!

Last but not least Joshua let us know what’s new when you integrate other apps with your NWS Rocket.Chat. Just follow his step by step guide!

This was the NETWAYS Blog in August put in a nutshell for you. Hope you enjoyed the read and found new and interesting topics! See you in September!
