Ansible is a powerful tool, and as uncle Ben used to say: “with great power comes great responsibility” but as Wikipedia denotes it comes back from 1793 during the French Revolution.

As I mentioned in a previous post I’m preparing for the RedHat’s ex294 exam in order to get the RHCE certification before my RHCSA expires.

I’m not sure if this is going to be enough for a blog post, because once I tried pi-hole’s installation I was surprised how simple it is.

Once I had a iSCSI storage server, I focused on storage clients, called initiators on iSCSI scope.

This weekend I tried to completely rewrite how I deployed the elasticsearch cluster on my home lab.

Few days ago I checked this website with Qualys SSLlabs test tool and it scored merely a B, so I decided to raise it.

Currently I’m working with big data sets on Graylog + Elastisearch deployments, it runs smoothly when everything is fine, but dealing with backups/snapshots and maintenance tasks is complicated.

My RHCSA is expiring in a few months and I decided to advance a step in Red Hat’s certification path.

On last post I added traefik to my monitoring lab in order to use it as a reverse proxy.

What’s traefik? Quoting verbatim it’s own definition: Traefik is an Edge Router, it means that it’s the door to your platform, and that it intercepts and routes every incoming request: it knows all the logic and every rule that determine which services handle which requests (based on the path, the host, headers, and so on …).
