How to use Terraform with Teams using Atlantis (#GitOps)

GitOps is where everything, including infrastructure, is maintained in Git and controlled via a combination of Pull Requests and CI/CD pipelines. Reduce the learning curve for new devs by providing a familiar, repeatable process. Use Code Reviews to catch bugs and increase operational competency. Provide transparency to the rest of the team with Pull Requests. This presentation had a live demo of using Atlantis with Terraform that showed how to easily add and remove users from AWS IAM safely & securely using simply GitHub Pull Requests.

Effortless Blue/Green Deployments on Kubernetes with Helm

Last night was our first ever Pasadena “DevOps Mastermind” meetup.

First speaker up was Dan Garfield. He talked about how to achieve Blue/Green deployments. Blue/Green has been around for a long time but what are the “best practices” when using Kubernetes? How does it change when using Helm? Last night we learned from Dan the differences as he demonstrated how to pull it off effectively with repeatability using Codefresh. When using Helm, the picture changes slightly, keeping a history so rollbacks work properly is critical and requires structuring your Helm Chart accordingly. Check out the slides!
