Welcome to my experimental WIKI.

The website covers cloud computing topics like migration, infrastructure, and high availability. It discusses tools like Kubernetes, OpenStack, and AWS, the importance of open-source software, and factors to consider when implementing a cloud infrastructure.

CLOUD LAB

I want to share my LAB project.

INFRA audit

I made ServerDiff.sh script to audit servers. You can track configuration drift. You can check if your environments are the same.

CLOUD migration example

• 1.5 days: infra audit (82 clustered services) (audit own tool)

• 1.5 days: physical and virtual target CLOUD architecture diagram

• 1.5 days: physical compliance of 2 CLOUD (6 hypervisors, 6TB memory)

• 1 days: installation of the 2 CLOUD

• .5 day: stability check

ACTION	RESULT	OK/KO
Activate maintenance for n/2-1 nodes or 1 node if 2 nodes.	All resources are started.
Un-maintenance all nodes. Power off n/2-1 nodes or 1 node if 2 nodes, different from the previous test.	All resources are started.
Power off simultaneous all nodes. Power on simultaneous all nodes.	All resources are started.

• 1.5 days: CLOUD automation study

• 1.5 days: 6 templates (2 CLOUD, 2 OS, 8 environments, 2 versions)

• 1 day: migration diagram

• 1.5 days: 138 lines of industrialization code for migration (migration own code)

• 1.5 days: process stabilization

• 1.5 days: CLOUD benchmark vs old INFRA

• .5 days: calibration of unavailability time per unit migration

• 5 minutes (effective load): 82 VM (env, os, application_code, 2 IP)

Total = 15 man-days

CLOUD improvement

• Formalize your infrastructure as much as possible for more flexibility, low complexity and less technology lock-in.
• Use a name server able to handle the position of your customers like GDNS.
• Use a minimal instance and use a network load balancer like LVS. Monitor the global load of your instances and add/delete dynamically as needed.
• Or, many providers have dynamic computing services. Compare the prices. But take care about the technology lock-in.
• Use a very efficient TLS decoder for the frontend like the HAPROXY decoder.
• Use very fast http cache like VARNISH.
• Use a big cache for big files like Apache Traffic Server.
• ...
• Use a REVERSE PROXY with TLS decoder like ENVOY for more services compatibility.
• Use serverless service for standard runtimes like Java, Python and PHP. But beware of certain incompatibilities and a lack of consistency over time.
• ...
• Each time you need dynamic computing power think about load balancing or native service from the providers (caution about providers services!)
• ...
• Try to use open source STACKs as much as possible.
• ...
• Use cache for your databases like MEMCACHED

HA COROSYNC+PACEMAKER

Typical architecture

• 2 rooms
• 2 power supply
• 2FC / server (active/active) (SAN)
• 2*10Gbit/s ethernet / server (active/passive, possible active/active if PXE on native VLAN 0)
• IPMI VLAN (for the fence)
• VLAN ADMIN which must be the native VLAN if BOOTSTRAP by PXE (admin, provisioning, heartbeat)
• USER VLAN (application services)
• NTP
• DNS+DHCP+PXE+TFTP+HTTP for auto-provisioning
• PROXY (for update or otherwise internal REPOSITORY)

• Choose between 2 or more node clusters.

• For a 2-node architecture, you need a 2-node configuration on COROSYNC and make sure to configure a 10-second staggered closing for one of the nodes (otherwise, an unstable cluster results).

• Resources are stateless.

For DB resources it is necessary to provide 4GB per base in general. For CPU resources, as a rule there are no big requirements. Tip, for time-critical compressions, use PZSTD.

Typical service pattern

• MULTIPATH
• LUN
• LVM (LVM resource)
• FS (FS resource)
• NFS (FS resource)
• USER
• IP (IP resource)
• DNS name
• PROCESS (PROCESS resource)
• LISTENER (LISTENER resource)
