I’m trying to build a list of the little guys so leave a comment in the thread if you want to help.

@channel Hi, anybody tried ECS Capacity Providers? I wonder can you scale-in to zero to have an ondemand cluster? Like Google CloudRun.

Hi all!
I'm looking for a infra-as-code tool. After a 2-week research my top two are terraform and pulumi and it's very close 😉
Have you tried pulumi? Why do you use terraform and not pulumi?

I’m planning our 2020 conference options, already have our local DevOpsDays, re:Invent and HashiConf as the our usual options. What would you say is the main conference(s) to attend that could help start up an SRE practice?

Perhaps the datadog conf?

https://www.grafanacon.org/ 2020 also not yet announced, so maybe not happening

KubeCon?

Thanks !

Also, just making sure you’ve seen the canonical reference book for SREs by Google: (FREE) https://landing.google.com/sre/books/

Lots of actionable recommendations in there..

Thanks for sharing, I have it on top of my pile of books to read

Joining us for #office-hours today? 😃

hey everyone give a warm welcome to @Madhavan Thiyagarajan! Good to have you here

Hi there.. I am a newbie for AWS system manager[SSM].. I am trying to invoke a lambda function through the automation document. The lambda function expects two input args which is supposed to be passed in as mandatory input parameters to the document while execution. I am trying to configure the lambda function as the only step in my automation document. I couldn't figure out how to pass in the two input parameters[tagKey & tagValue] into my step.1 lambda function.. I couldn't figure it out from AWS docs. Maybe too naive/dumb.. here is my current document

schemaVersion: '0.3'
parameters:
  tagKey:
    type: String
  tagValue:
    type: String
mainSteps:
  - name: script
    action: 'aws:invokeLambdaFunction'
    inputs:
      FunctionName: getInstances

@Madhavan Thiyagarajan let's move to #aws

@Erik Osterman (Cloud Posse) sure.. Sorry only after posting the message i noticed the posting policy. I posted in #aws too. Going forward i will not post these questions in #general..

Where's the posting policy again?

@Arthur Burkart as soon as i joined today i got it pushed as a direct message to me through slackbot..

Ah yes, I see it now, thanks 🙌

hello working on implementing operators and stateful apps/services in AWS EKS. on friday I coded out separate ASG for each zone and applied that via TF to our cluster and it appears to works as expected. I see that about 28 days ago the ability to use terraform to deploy nodegroups appeared. I came across your module but of course we're still using terraform 11.latest...

ref: https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-eks-node-group curious about the ASG and if its just abstracted if you deploy the nodegroup? i.e., I dont see it mentioned/noted in your examples: https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-eks-node-group/tree/master/examples/complete

welcome @Chris McConnell

hellp @Andriy Knysh (Cloud Posse) thanks

Node Group has abstracted everything that was implemented in https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-eks-workers

for putting your cloudposse code out there

so it’s much simpler

so also was looking at using the official docs examples: https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/aws/r/eks_node_group.html whatever we roll with gonna need to hack it up sadly

it has some restrictions of cause (as any abstraction), e.g. Node Group does not allow you to use spot instances, but https://github.com/cloudposse/terraform-aws-eks-workers via the ASG does

we had the eks cluster separated in separate TF module and then the autoscaler in another. I quickly just refactored to deploy one ASG/zone and I think that's how it used to be done?

but came across the recent updates with nodegroups and thinking that's the way we should roll

depends on your use-case. Node Group is much simpler and everything is managed by AWS. workers gives you more control. Let’s move to #terraform

ah, k thx will do

Hey everyone, give a warm welcome to our newest members!

Good to have you here =)

I'm trying to spin up my initial AWS account structure & base services, and I've found two similar but different guides from Cloudposse -

https://github.com/cloudposse/reference-architectures
https://docs.cloudposse.com/reference-architectures/cold-start/

Is there any recommendation on which one to use?

The first one

The second one is very out of date

we also have #geodesic for help
