Been having a lot of issues with Linode (Akamai?) lately — Frankfurt DC specifically. It's come so far that I'm considering switching to another hosting partner because I (and some of my clients) have lost trust in them. What are some good alternatives these days? Going back to AWS, Azure or Google seems easiest but I'm wondering if there are other good hosting companies offering VPS hosting + bucket storage out there. #WebHosting #AWS #GoogleCloud #Azure #Linode

It is sort of an open-ended question... but does anyone have any war stories (good or bad) with #cloud credit support programs for #OpenSource projects?
Particularly, the programs that #AWS and #Azure offer (or seem to offer).
🆕 Retiring the AWS Documentation on GitHub!
After reviewing the results of the project and considering the overhead of manually keeping the internal documentation in sync, #AWS decided to retire most of its public repositories: https://bit.ly/3OTZQu4

Anything can be a message queue if you use it wrongly enough
#Amazon #AWS un-open sources the AWS documentation, claiming their internal systems cannot be made to work in a way that they can be easily synced to a git repo. Weird. https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/retiring-the-aws-documentation-on-github/
Here's one audio note from a bike ride: "four starlings mid to the west seen then call they flew north off the Burns Building and also five pigeons mid to the west on the Burns Building"
That's my last note transcribed by #AWS Transcribe. I'm in NZ so starlings are Sturnus vulgaris and pigeons are Columba livia. "Mid" means 20–80 m away. "And also" separates two species observations.
#EcologicalMonitoring is *super-easy* for all species that are quick to spot and easy to identify!
Last night I passed another milestone on my long journey to document the changes in nature around me. #AWS Transcribe completed *all* my geotagged and timestamped audio notes from all my bike commutes to and from work. With my weekend runs, that makes 760,840 audio notes transcribed. That's plus 748,707 notes I've typed in over the past 20 years, taking me past 1.5 million. I've got over 500 more trips to transcribe, plus lots of data cleaning still to do.

Is there an example somewhere how to send Slack messages (including rich text, and tagging users) in JavaScript (to be more precise in AWS Lambda)? I'd receive channel name and user IDs as parameters and the code should be flexible enough to use those channels and users.
Someone has $10k worth of #AWS credits and is asking Hacker News how they should use them:
I think there's a #MediaWiki wibble somewhere between the #AWS extension when used with a @digitalocean CDN and MultimediaViewer. Me and this beer are going to try to figure it out.

Another gem from @Quinnypig's Last Week in #AWS: a checklist for things you should log. https://letsbuild.cloud/2023/05/18/important-logs.html
@dekkzz76 @shelenn @deadbeef I fully agree. My predictions:
Twitter will stay the dominant media-fed and media-driven social platform at least in the US.
Bluesky won't make it. Investors will soon realize that it is a scam, nothing else.
The Fediverse will grow slowly and organically. More from Europe than other parts of the world.
#Mastodon will blow up because all its major instances will be hit by a simultaneous multi-day spam bot attack leading to Amazon #AWS blocking all traffic to&from Mastodon instances and there is nothing they can do about it because Eugen was busy implementing #Twitter UX into Mastodon Mobile Apps
The Emacs.ch instance will move to a self-developed #CommonLisp fork of Mastodon (with a Non-Mastodon logo due to a trademark feud) that employs AI algorithms from the PAIP book, get's rid of all #JavaScript (because it is non-free) and is mainly used by users of the #mastodonEL #Emacs package
Its operator will launch a second donations page begging for money to be able to buy two expensive #LispWorks HobbyistDV licenses because lispm from Reddit told him that this unparalleled, magical Lisp productivity is only gained with a superior IDE
There will be heated discussions between factions of the Common Lisp and the Emacs Elisp community about their Lisp being the better, faster and "most free" one
@amszmidt will chime in and do another "Emacs Lisp is not a Lisp - Bite me" post which generates so much traffic that the Emacs.ch instance will blow up in flames and its operator will eventually convert to a #Microsoft fanboy running an ancient fork of #FidoNet written in Omicron Pascal (but converted to #Delphi), hosted on a WinXP machine with IIS and #SQLServer2008.
End of story.
#aws just emailed to say some client is accessing stuff in #s3 using old tls, and if i want more information i should set up something called #cloudTrail. i'm twenty minutes into the docs and console and i've decided i no longer care about the client using old tls.
@pwaring I remember when a goodly chunk of the internet went down due to a cascading Amazon Web Services #AWS cross-zone failure of the Elastic Block Storage (EBS) controllers.
Took me a week to reverse engineer on-disk data structures to rescue my client data; while offline the entire time. And in violation of their SLA and best practices for distribution across several zones. Because it did not matter; it all died. All of it.
😄 Compensation of any kind?
🤣 I'm joking, right?
@internetarchive brought down by #AI company making tens of thousands of requests per second for public domain OCR files that was launched from 64 virtual hosts on amazon’s #AWS services.
They blocked the IP's, got Internet Archive up and running and another 64 addresses started the same type of activity a couple of hours later.
They tweeted it was an AI company doing it. #InternetArchive
https://blog.archive.org/2023/05/29/let-us-serve-you-but-dont-bring-us-down/
Given how terrible #aws is at naming things "SageMaker Fridays" could very well be a casual family restaurant.
@simon_lucy @andreasdotorg @internetarchive
Then that's a necessary sacrifice one needs to do.
If #aws doesn't combat #abuse then it's only valid to #DROP [#DontRouteOrPeer] their systems...
And yes, I do yeet hostile networks as an act of self- and mutual ITsec...
https://github.com/greyhat-academy/lists.d/blob/main/blocklists.list.tsv
@andreasdotorg if I were @internetarchive I'd limit the amount of traffic and connections #AWS can make to 1 per IPv4 & 1 per IPv6 @ 64kbit/s and automatically abuse-report and temporarily soft-block the source IPs via #blackholing [like any #DDoS] if not the entire #AWS #AS!
ended up helping an #AWS Community Builder with a last minute session on AWS Networking (100/200 series) for an online meetup. No recording but the slides are here: https://slides.sathyasays.com/aws-networking/
#fediverse you are my only hope...
I stopped using #OpenBSD some times ago because of my work and the need of some wine tricks or linux things.
Now apps are SaaS and Google WorkSpace (Yes I know.
The only piece of sh** that remains is the #aws VPN client that is targeted to Ubuntu (there is a AUR one that works) and #systemD
It is a patched OpenVPN build against openssl 1.1 🤢
All my search gave nothing serious.
Is there a chance that a #puffy guy is using that crappy AWS VPN everyday ?
Trust in distributed Internet of Things systems is not a one-way relationship.
It is not enough to verify the identity of Devices from the Backend perspective.
Devices should verify the Backend identity BEFORE sending/receiving any data.
To keep your IoT environment secure, use X.509 Certificates as the Proof of Identity.

Hive mind: What top misconceptions have you encountered regarding migrating workloads to #AWS?
I have someone writing a "common migration misconceptions" article, because it's always a good idea to clear out the readers' wrong assumptions before you impart advice.
What do you wish you knew earlier about migration strategies or practicalities? Or, what do you wish everybody understood so you wouldn't have to explain it AGAIN? (Details, please!)

Concise compendium of caveats/limitations/gotchas of #AWS
Several years ago, I had that free credit from #AWS to play around with. It wasn't much use back then but I'd like to start experimenting over there again.
Is it possible to get that free credit again somehow?
TIL #aws API Gateway HTTP APIs are not yet available in Osaka region.
Hmm while doing an #azure to #aws migration of an app.
We detected much lower performance on S3, on the latency per request, this is especially visible as some process would do a lot of small requests, with same object, azure access spends around ~16ms where s3 takes
~47ms...
Any idea of what could be the issue ? Or this is expected ?
We are using IRSA / IAM roles on AWS where on Azure the tokens are directly in environment variables but I don't think this would have an impact ?
Same code, same objects (but on s3 instead of blob).
