  • Multi-environment deployments with Jenkins and Octopus - Octopus Deploy

    During a deployment process, an artifact is built by a build server before being deployed. Jenkins is a build server designed for multi-environment settings. Jenkins can package and push your artifact to a central repository. From here, a Continuous Delivery (CD) tool can take the artifact and deploy it.

    Octopus Deploy is a best in class CD tool that helps with this process. Octopus can interface with and deploy to major cloud providers like Azure, Google, and Amazon.

    In this post, I show you how to build and push the Octopus underwater app to Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR). Jenkins will trigger a deployment in Octopus Deploy. Octopus will then deploy the app to Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS).

  • 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.
