It's great when you can tell bad code was ignored from the developer's docker environment to perf and spike a release before it goes to prod. Popular linux apps (Nginx/Apache/Redis/*Sql/etc) tuned properly don't just die, bad code kills them.

Get a way to quickly roll back bad deployments, control the deployment process, test code before it becomes a problem (Jenkins, Sonarcube, etc), create perf and prod identical test environments for the devs (Containers are often a good option here), make sure something like bugsnag with deep error reporting is enabled. DevOps makes more than a plain linux admin and has a better long term job outlook, these "Everything prod is your responsibility forever" jobs are often a great way to move from linux admin to devops. I would say a lot of people move from this position into DevOps because they automated the infrastructure and resiliency, and now they need to prevent SQL / Memory / Security / CPU impacting events. Setup quality monitoring, tune it to only alarm on real issues after your scripts have failed, nagios is one option but SASS offerings are often the least work/stress/most accurate, pingdom, uptimerobot, your cloud provider's option etc.īe proactive and defensive of what code / software you run, you are the final gate that means a bad developer's code that pushes out on a thursday/friday before they leave on vacation becomes your problem. Load balance / make redundant anything you can, create automated failovers / restarts that notify you so you can take action the next morning, make as many sleep losing / life interrupting events try 1 or 5 things to repair itself before you have to. This will be achieved by using the pinMode() function and passing DO as the first parameter and ‘INPUT’ as the second parameter.In addition specifically regarding the 24/7 oncall.Īdd your snippets to the app, add your ssh-keys, so you can get status/reboot/restart/reload/break-fix in 2 clicks from your phone. Moreover, we will configure the output pin of the sensor as an input pin. Inside the setup() function we will open the serial communication at a baud rate of 115200.

This will store the time since the last clap sound was detected. Next, to monitor the clap sounds we will create a variable to store the ‘last_event’.
