Avez-vous déjà migré un site web ? Ceux qui l’ont déjà fait, ou qui doivent le faire régulièrement, connaissent les difficultés de ce type d’opération.

Have you migrated a website before? If you have, or will need to migrate websites regularly, you’ll be familiar with the difficulties associated with this kind of operation. To put in the most basic terms, this operation usually involves six steps: purchasing and configuring the destination infrastructure testing the new infrastructure by importing data and website code shutting down the website, or putting it in read-only mode to stop the data from being saved on the old infrastructure during the migration process deploying code on the new infrastructure, and importing data into the new databases modifying the source code to (...)
One of the key advantages of usisng Kubernetes is the formidable ecosystem around it. From Rancher to Istio, from Rook to Fission, from gVisor to KubeDB, the Kubernetes ecosystem is rich, vibrant and ever-growing. We are getting to the point where for most deployment needs we can say there is a K8s-based open-source project for that. One of the latests additions to this ecosystem is the Agones project, an open-source, multiplayer, dedicated game-server hosting built on Kubernetes, developed by Google in collaboration with Ubisoft. The project was announced in March, and has already made quite a bit of noise… In (...)
In 2017, many factors contributed to the significant growth of OVH: hiring in Europe; the acquisition of a company in the USA; the construction of 14 new data centers; and the start of activities in APAC. In fewer than 18 months, we doubled the number of employees from twelve hundred to twenty-five hundred. I don’t recommend scaling this fast! OVH is a digital company in that we use software to deliver the service ordered by the customer. Like other companies, we serve our customers in many ways, but the actions of our employees do not have the same why. Toward (...)
En 2017, OVH a beaucoup grandi à travers les recrutements que nous avons faits en Europe, le rachat d’une entreprise aux USA, la construction de 14 nouveaux Datacentres et le démarrage des activités en APAC. En moins de 18 mois, nous avons doublé le nombre d’employés en passant de 1200 personnes à 2500 personnes. BTW, je ne recommande pas de grandir aussi vite. OVH est une entreprise numérique dans la mesure où nous délivrons un service, que le client nous commande, grâce au software. Vers la fin de 2017 j’ai réalisé que beaucoup de nouveaux collaborateurs chez OVH, n’avaient pas compris ce qu’est une entreprise numérique. Ils n’avaient pas compris tous les « pourquoi ». Et pour former rapidement les équipes, il nous a fallu trouver des outils simples pour permettre à tout le monde de connaitre les fondamentaux d’une (...)
We’re all familiar with that small snippet of code that adds reasonable value to your business unit. It can materialise as a script, a program, a line of code… and it will produce a report, new metrics, KPIs, or create new composite data. This code is intended to run periodically, to meet requirements for up-to-date information. In the Observability team, we encounter these snippets as queries within the Time Series Database (TSDB), to express continuous queries that are responsible for automating different use cases like: deletes, rollups or any business logic that needs to manipulate Time Series data. We already (...)
