@Gargron is the info about building the cluster available somewhere?

Albrecht

@Gargron And IPv6 connectivity is fixed as well! ๐ŸŽ‰ Great work!

Anarcho Doggo

@Gargron have yall published a blog post about this? Aware of the helm chart that exists but I think best practices around setup for various infrastructure components and how to manage scalability, security, configuration, and migration would make for a stellar blog post (particularly from official mastodon channels)

@Gargron

#kubernetes

Very Nice. There are many features of #Kubernetes that is helpful in allowing #Mastodon to scale

#OpenEBS

@Gargron Sounds great, but I have no idea what it means

@Gargron will the helm chart now be maintained ?

@Gargron There's probably good news in there that I'm ill-equipped to understand. ๐Ÿ˜‚

Solinvictus :vm:

@Gargron a blog post about the migration would be awesome, please donโ€™t skip the challenges and technical details youโ€™ve overcame, those are the gist of the whole story :100a:

@Gargron awesome thank you so much! Appreciate the continued work..

@Gargron Great job! I'm back on #Twitter to spread the word about the server being back open. I want to bring all my friends over here! Mastodon to the moon ๐Ÿš€ ๐Ÿš€ ๐Ÿš€

@Gargron I don't know what this means ๐Ÿ˜„ but it seems like good news so congrats! ๐ŸŽ‰

@Gargron Nice! is the manifest repo public? Would love to see it.

Jorge Escobar

@Gargron Iโ€™d love a technical write up on how you did it, specially if it includes auto-scaling! Congrats!! ๐ŸŽ‰

@Gargron is it plain kubernetes or some distribution of it?

AlicePaul

@Gargron

Sometimes I feel so lost on Mastodon, like right now.

@Gargron hey! Is it possible to change my @ without moving on to another server? Iโ€™d like to capitalize my username (to WillianMax). Thanks!

For those of you who donโ€™t know what that means: #Kubernetes (also referred to as K8s) is a technology that helps administrators like @Gargron with running software on servers. The special thing is: It makes it easier to install and update software on many servers at once and โ€žorchestrateโ€œ the many parts of an application like #Mastodon like webserver and database. 1/2

Also it provides ways to โ€žscaleโ€œ an application, so that it automagically runs on more hardware when the usage rises. Kubernetes is quite complex stuff and difficult to master. So kudos to Eugen for having made this big step! I use K8s myself at scale so I know what that means ๐Ÿ˜… 2/2

@Gargron ich hab Knusperente gelesen und Hunger bekommen ๐Ÿคญ

Herr Bรคr

@Gargron I have no idea what that is, but it sounds good for a ๐Ÿฆฃ

Roadskater, Ph.D.

@Gargron I have no idea what that means, but it sounds like a good thing!

Stefan

@Gargron Can you publish your Kubernetes files? I am sure that many people are eager to learn from the master. ๐Ÿ™‚

Ticiano

@Gargron Good luck with that. Kubernetes is a pain in the arse

Voron

@Gargron like many things about mastodon I have no damn idea what that means

Chris

@Gargron thatโ€™s cool! But why are you posting literally hundreds of animal messages in a row? Is that necessary?

I am asking for tree lovers! You know, people who like trees more than animals? Never heard of that? See! We need to talk!
