  • Bridging the multicloud gap with open source

    Cloud technologies are advancing at full tilt with the aid of machine learning tools and open-source learnings, and new companies born in the cloud era are quick to optimize for an increasingly digital market.

    But while cloud-native organizations enjoy these advantages seamlessly, legacy businesses continue to struggle through the re-platforming challenges inhibiting cloud benefits. While the emergence of multicloud offers a more efficient option than lift-and-shift migration, the path to hybrid modernization remains under construction for most cloud providers still building their own enterprise solutions.

    With the experience of both a legacy tech enterprise and emerging cloud leader, IBM is adopting an open-source approach to guiding customers on their digital transformation journey.

  • Struggling IBM Uses CES to Reinvent Itself

    Among the featured speakers at the largest consumer electronics show next week in Las Vegas is the CEO of a a major enterprise IT vendor not generally associated with the whizzy world of gadgetry: Ginni Rometty, who also serves as IBM’s chairwoman and president.

    Rometty’s keynote at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) on Tuesday (Jan. 8) illustrates how far the buttoned-down company has shifted its focus as it searches for problems to solve with its AI, cloud and blockchain technologies. Too, it must convince skeptics that its blockbuster—and debt-financed—deal to acquire open-source leader Red Hat (NYSE: RHT) will bear fruit once the $34 billion deal closes.

  • Cabling is now code: How cloud and open source fuel Cisco’s vision for the programmable network

    It would not be a stretch to say that 2018 was the Year of the Cloud for Cisco Systems Inc. The networking company’s agreement in November with Amazon Web Services Inc. to provide an integrated platform connecting Kubernetes’ container orchestration management clusters across AWS and on-premises operations was just the culmination of a number of strategic, cloud-related moves.

    Earlier in the year, Cisco announced that its own CloudCenter portfolio would become part of the hybrid solution under joint development with Google LLC. And the company released AppDynamics for Kubernetes to troubleshoot performance issues within clusters. Cisco also rolled out its Container Platform in August using 100 percent upstream Kubernetes.

    In Cisco’s financial teleconference two months ago, Chief Executive Officer Chuck Robbins made it clear that enterprise customer transition to the cloud was a key factor in driving his company’s current growth. Since taking over the chief executive’s role in 2015, Robbins has steered the Cisco ship directly toward the north star of cloud.

  • How To Install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9 - idroot

    In this tutorial, we will show you how to install MongoDB on AlmaLinux 9. For those of you who didn’t know, MongoDB is a high-performance, highly scalable document-oriented NoSQL database. Unlike in SQL databases where data is stored in rows and columns inside tables, in MongoDB, data is structured in JSON-like format inside records which are referred to as documents. The open-source attribute of MongoDB as a database software makes it an ideal candidate for almost any database-related project. This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo‘ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you the step-by-step installation of the MongoDB NoSQL database on AlmaLinux 9. You can follow the same instructions for CentOS and Rocky Linux.

  • Self-host a Ghost Blog With Traefik

    Ghost is a very popular open-source content management system. Started as an alternative to WordPress and it went on to become an alternative to Substack by focusing on membership and newsletter. The creators of Ghost offer managed Pro hosting but it may not fit everyone's budget. Alternatively, you can self-host it on your own cloud servers. On Linux handbook, we already have a guide on deploying Ghost with Docker in a reverse proxy setup. Instead of Ngnix reverse proxy, you can also use another software called Traefik with Docker. It is a popular open-source cloud-native application proxy, API Gateway, Edge-router, and more. I use Traefik to secure my websites using an SSL certificate obtained from Let's Encrypt. Once deployed, Traefik can automatically manage your certificates and their renewals. In this tutorial, I'll share the necessary steps for deploying a Ghost blog with Docker and Traefik.
