Someone rewrote Kafka in Rust and embedded it in Postgres using pgrx ๐คฏ
Kafgres is a Rust-based Kafka broker that runs within Postgres. Kafka clients connect to Postgres on port 9092 and literally can't tell the difference. ๐งต
Most days, I feel every bit in my 30s. But once in a while, I go dancing or clubbing, and it's like my 20s from Delhi come bursting back out of my body.
At this point, I am not looking for wfh or menstrual leave. All I want is
- my hair wash day to align with my gym day,
- my gym days to align with my period cycle,
- my periods to align with my oncall
I feel like everything for me is always running in different time zones?โ
The main components of Kubernetes explained.
At its core, Kubernetes is built on a handful of key components, each with a distinct role.
By understanding them, you'll have a strong foundational understanding.
๐ก๐ผ๐ฑ๐ฒ:
โณ Machines (physical or virtual) that run containerized applications. Nodes host the workload, which is composed of Pods.
๐ฃ๐ผ๐ฑ:
โณ The smallest deployable unit in K8s, containing one or more containers that share storage, networking, and resources.
๐๐ผ๐ป๐๐ฟ๐ผ๐น ๐ฝ๐น๐ฎ๐ป๐ฒ:
โณ The "brain" of the cluster that manages system state and oversees Nodes and Pods.
It consists of:
โข API server: handles cluster management requests
โข Scheduler: assigns Pods to Nodes
โข Controller manager: maintains the desired state
โข etcd: stores cluster configuration and state as a distributed key-value store
๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ:
โณ Provides stable endpoints (IP/DNS) to enable communication between Pods or expose applications to external users.
๐๐ป๐ด๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐:
โณ Manages external HTTP/HTTPS traffic, routing it to the appropriate services within the cluster.
๐ก๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ๐๐ฝ๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ฒ:
โณ A virtual cluster within a Kubernetes cluster, allowing for resource isolation and multi-tenancy.
๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฟ๐๐ถ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐๐ผ๐น๐๐บ๐ฒ:
โณ Decouples storage from Pods, enabling data persistence across container restarts or deletions.
The components above work together to form a powerful system for automating application orchestration. Kubernetes has become the go-to platform for ensuring reliability and scalability in modern software systems. That said it's not the answer for every application. There's a steep learning curve and complexity involved. Sometimes simpler/lightweight options like Docker Swarm or PaaS solutions are a better fit.

Funny how people in India are cheering for Momdaniโs election win in New York, while completely ignoring Bihar elections where Prashant Kishor is literally trying to fix the system we all complain about.

In my family, Iโm the one who instantly calls out snide remarks and backhanded compliments from relatives or just cut people off so hard I look past them at family functions. In my defense, Iโm the youngest child.
Gen Z is weird: one minute theyโre bragging about imaginary hookups, and the next theyโre pleading โplease papa ka phone mat uthana, parents call kar rahe hain updates ke liye.โ Kisi ko in pe do-kodi ka bharosa nahi hai.๐
had a very serious debate with my girlsโwho did 90s women have the hots for: Arjun Rampal or Jimmy Shergill?
me: always Mr. Shergill.
Rampal was for posters buts Shergill was for the heartsโค๏ธ
