🚀 Thinking of a Career in DevOps? Read This First! 🚀 Full Video : https://lnkd.in/eSGy7vYH DevOps is no longer just about mastering tools—it's about mastering code. The game has changed from tool-based operations to a deep integration of code with processes. If you're aiming for success in DevOps, coding knowledge, and an understanding of SDLC and TDLC are must-haves. 📈 In the past, non-IT professionals could transition into DevOps by learning the tools, but today, the landscape demands more. From 'Pipeline as Code' to 'Security as Code,' the focus has shifted from PPT—People, Process, Tools—to PPC—People, Process, Code. 💻 Thinking DevOps might be easy to break into? Think again. While learning is possible, those with coding experience have a significant edge in this competitive market. 🌟 #DevOps #CareerInTech #CodingLife #TechTransformation #ITCareer #PipelineAsCode #InfrastructureAsCode #SDLC #TechCareers #DevOpsEngineer #CareerAdvice #TechEvolution

Keeping in line with the last post, this is how we reduced our AWS costs (2021-2024). Points are color-coded as per the attached image. 1. Large to small 🟦🟥 Everyone believes they are going to get 50 million users the moment their app hits prod. But I implore you to memorize the following code. If company.isFunded('Series A') { instance.set('Large') } else { instance.set('Small') } Cost me a few lakhs to learn this. Totally worth it. 2. On-demand to reserved 🟦 I have heard serverless scales infinitely. Well, it does scale your costs infinitely. Reserve your instance. Then ask AWS for a discount. 3. Filestore to CloudWatch 🟧 Our system logs were stored for years. Our server's file store was bloated. Now we send them to Cloudwatch, which retains them for three days. Then it's asta-la-vista, baby. 4. ElasticSearch to Postgres 🟪 Why did I even spin up these instances? I thought our discussion forums would need "text search capabilities". Well, since I don't need to do DNA matching on the comments, the cost of ElasticSearch was prohibitively high. Instead, we moved our text search to the browser. Using javascript :D BLASPHEMY! -------------------------------------------- These experiences have helped us appreciate the practical aspect of designing systems (which often comes up during live classes at InterviewReady). If you are a startup founder, I wish you all the best! Cheers! #AWS #CostManagement

I had an interesting discussion with folks from the Chrome and Firefox teams about React Server Components and how they affect the web performance at the Toronto Web Perf Meetup yesterday. The DCL event seems to happen when the last bit of HTML reaches the browser, which can be seconds later. Until that happens, no module or deferred scripts are going to be invoked. Having the browser paint the page before all suspended components load is definitely a good feature, but it doesn't change the fact that we need to deliver all data as fast as possible. All the deferred or module scripts won't load until DCL happens. Have this in mind when you're suspending your components. It's easy to think "it will reach the browser whenever it does" since the users will be able to interact with the website before that, but don't adopt that mindset.

In my quest for the perfect retrieval method for our Toronto restaurant recommendation system at #llmzoomcamp, I ventured beyond the initial success of the minsearch function to explore alternatives like Elasticsearch. We implemented both text and vector retrieval strategies hoping to enhance our system’s performance. Unfortunately, the results were not as promising—text retrieval achieved a hit rate of 14% and an MRR of 10%, while vector retrieval slightly improved with a hit rate of 33% and an MRR of 21%. These outcomes highlighted the challenges of adapting different technologies to our specific needs. Given these insights, we decided to continue utilizing the minsearch function as our primary retrieval method. This decision underscores our commitment to providing the most accurate and relevant dining suggestions to our users. It's a fascinating journey of trial, error, and optimization! Stay tuned for more updates as we fine-tune our system to deliver the best user experience possible! https://lnkd.in/gpDHSxUa
