• Tracetest in Action: Running Trace-Based Tests on the OpenTelemetry Demo App with Nomad

  Is the address at which the gRPC endpoint is served. In this case, we’re using Consul DNS to expose the service’s address. If we look at the Recommendation Service’s Nomad jobspec, you’ll see that the name of the gRPC service is recommendationservice. So when we query it in Consul, it should be accessible at this address recommendationservice.service.consul. We can test this by logging into the HashiQube image. Do... - Source: dev.to / about 1 year ago

• How to Convert Kubernetes Manifests into Nomad Jobspecs

  By default, the service is registered to Consul. Although we don’t explicitly say so, it’s the equivalent of adding a provider = "consul" attribute to the service stanza. You can register your services to either Nomad or Consul. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Running the OpenTelemetry Demo App on HashiCorp Nomad

  Before you start, just a friendly reminder that HashiQube by default runs Nomad, Vault, and Consul on Docker. In addition, we’ll be deploying 21 job specs to Nomad. This means that we’ll need a decent amount of CPU and RAM, so Please make sure that you have enough resources allocated in your Docker desktop. For reference, I’m running an M1 Macbook Pro with 8 cores and 32 GB RAM. My Docker Desktop Resource... - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• Order of Installation

  IP Addresses are hard to remember, so let's allow everything to interact based on hostname and domain name (I use PiHole and consul.io for this as it gives me ad blocking and service discovery). Source: about 2 years ago

• An Introduction to Microservices pt. 3

  We'll begin by going the Consul.io website and downloading it. Consul will act as our Service Registry. Just for the purposes of this tutorial, we'll be running Consul in developer mode. After downloading Consul, you can add it to you system PATH, or run it from wherever directory you want it. - Source: dev.to / over 2 years ago

• Release Radar · April 2024 Edition: Major updates from the open source community

  It's like Prometheus, but for logs. Okay it's not really to do with the Norse or Greek gods, instead Loki is a horizontally-scalable, highly-available, multi-tenant log aggregation system inspired by the open source project Prometheus. Built by Grafana Labs, Loki is designed for ease of use. Instead of indexing the contents of the logs, Loki provides a set of labels for each log stream. The latest update includes... - Source: dev.to / 5 days ago

• Tools for frontend monitoring with Prometheus

  Developers widely use Prometheus as a system for operational monitoring and alerting for their projects. Here is a list of tools for monitoring frontend services with Prometheus. - Source: dev.to / 28 days ago

• On Implementation of Distributed Protocols

  Distributed system administrators need mechanisms and tools for monitoring individual nodes in order to analyze the system and promptly detect anomalies. Developers also need effective mechanisms for analyzing, diagnosing issues, and identifying bugs in protocol implementations. Logging, tracing, and collecting metrics are common observability techniques to allow monitoring and obtaining diagnostic information... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Golang: out-of-box backpressure handling with gRPC, proven by a Grafana dashboard

  Setting up monitoring for a system, especially one involving GRPC communication, provides crucial visibility into its operations. In this guide, we walked through the steps to instrument both a GRPC server and client with Prometheus metrics, exposed those metrics via an HTTP endpoint, and visualized them using Grafana. The Docker-Compose setup simplified the deployment of both Prometheus and Grafana, ensuring a... - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago

• Monitoring, Observability, and Telemetry Explained

  Alerting and Notification: Select a tool with flexible alerting mechanisms to proactively detect anomalies or deviations from defined thresholds. Consider asking questions like "Does this tool offer customizable alerting options and support notification channels that suit our team's communication preferences?" A tool like Prometheus provides robust alerting capabilities. - Source: dev.to / about 1 month ago
