Jaap Brasser will be speaking at the DevOps & Agile Summer Retreat! He will talk about "Your first PowerShell CI pipeline with GitHub Actions" Discover how to streamline your PowerShell CI process using GitHub Actions in this hands-on session. We will walk you through the entire setup, from configuring your GitHub repository to automating your PowerShell scripts’ testing and deployment. You will learn how to create and customize workflows that trigger on specific events, such as code pushes or pull requests, ensuring that your CI process is both efficient and reliable. We’ll cover the integration of the Pester testing framework to ensure your scripts are robust and error-free before deployment. Additionally, you will see demonstrations on how to handle environment variables, secrets, and dependencies within your workflows, making your CI process secure and scalable. By the end of this session, you’ll understand how to use GitHub Actions to enhance your development pipeline, maintain high code quality, adhere to standards, and ensure continuous integration with PowerShell scripts and modules. This talk is ideal for DevOps engineers, system administrators, and developers who aim to boost productivity and maintain seamless, automated workflows. We're honoured to have you 🎉

Embracing sustainability: managing Kubernetes clusters with innovation and responsibility In the Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, Maarten and Jurg shared how they use open-source components and the Cluster API to manage Kubernetes clusters efficiently. They leverage tools like KubeVirt to manage virtual machines, allowing them to run Kubernetes within Kubernetes and maximizing resource utilization and flexibility. A key strategy was using refurbished hardware. By extending the lifespan of existing hardware and integrating it into its infrastructure, Aknostic reduces costs and minimizes environmental impact. This approach aligns with its commitment to sustainability, proving that high performance and sustainability practices can go hand in hand. The always-returning discussion with this topic is the alleged increased carbon efficiency of new model hardware (chips in particular). The point is that stuff's lifespan is essential. Refurbished can mean reusing the chassis and retrofitting it with later generations of chips, memory, and disks. However, this debate will ultimately be settled with full transparency (embodied emissions) and carbon reporting. 💡 In more everyday terms, perhaps old shit running the Nordics is better than the latest and greatest in a dense urban environment like Amsterdam. Share your thoughts on balancing IT infrastructure performance, cost, and sustainability. How do you integrate sustainability into your tech practices? #Sustainability #Kubernetes #OpenSourceInnovation

GitLab Meetups feature presentations, workshops, and hands-on sessions about DevOps, DevSecOps, CI/CD, and other cutting-edge topics. You'll be able to connect with other professionals in your area & might even meet potential collaborators or mentors. Meetups often include GitLab representatives or experts who can answer your questions, share insider knowledge, and provide guidance tailored to your needs. Not only that, many GitLab Meetups offer cool swag, snacks, and a casual environment to geek out about all things DevOps. Whether you're a seasoned GitLab user or just getting started, these events provide incredible value. You can check the GitLab Meetup Pro page to find one near you. It’s worth attending! https://bit.ly/3OJqswH #DevSecOps #TechCommunity

🚀 Semantic Search for Dutch Documents using Elasticsearch and Local Embeddings 🇳🇱 In my latest project, I built an intelligent search engine for Dutch documents using Elasticsearch with KNN Search and embeddings generated locally using the embaas/sentence-transformers-e5-large-v2 model. This combination allows us to perform semantic search, retrieving documents based on meaning rather than just keywords. The key advantage? By generating embeddings locally using the sentence-transformers library, we have full control over the process, making it scalable and highly flexible for our use case. 🔗 Check out the full implementation in my repo: https://lnkd.in/e-skZKZ8 Key Takeaways: • Local embeddings for more control and flexibility. • Semantic Search to capture the true meaning of queries. • Scalable with Elasticsearch to handle large datasets. Would love your feedback! #vectorsearch #embeddings #elasticsearch #onPrem #Deloitte #AIReady #Data #Dutch
