Sunday Prep: Pick One Cloud Efficiency Move to Try This Week 🛠️ Here are ideas: • Try the Shadow Waste Assessment tool • Set up resource usage forecasts for storage or compute • Review your mix: serverless vs containers vs VMs • Explore greener provider/region options
☁️ Weekly Cloud Recap: 1️⃣ Containers ≠ VMs 2️⃣ Wrong SKUs waste $$$ 3️⃣ IaC drift is real 4️⃣ Each cloud has a sweet spot 5️⃣ HA ≠ DR Stay curious, stay clever, and Talk Nerdy to Me.
☁️ Cloud Secrets Done Right 🧵 1️⃣ Hardcoding secrets in code = disaster waiting. 2️⃣ Every cloud has a vault: Azure Key Vault, AWS KMS, GCP Secret Manager, OCI Vault. 3️⃣ Rotate secrets automatically → don’t trust forever keys. 4️⃣ Least privilege → not every app needs master…
☁️ Stop Paying for Old Data 🧵 1️⃣ Hot storage = fast but expensive. 2️⃣ Cold/archive storage = slower, but pennies on the dollar. 3️⃣ Lifecycle rules = auto-move old data to the right tier. 4️⃣ Real-world: one team saved 40% just by archiving logs after 30 days. 5️⃣ Bonus: less…
🏋️ The Gym Membership Your cloud bill is like your gym membership. You’re paying for 24/7 access and premium equipment… but you only use the treadmill once a week. You provisioned for Black Friday traffic that never came.
What’s the bigger cloud waste? 👇 🔘 Idle VMs 🔘 Over-provisioned SKUs 🔘 Orphaned storage 🔘 All of the above 😅
This week’s nerdy thought: High availability ≠ disaster recovery. HA keeps your service alive during failures. DR gets you back after a disaster. Different tools, different mindsets.
🐌 “Your pipeline isn’t CI/CD — it’s bureaucracy-as-code.” “Your CI/CD pipeline takes 25 minutes to lint YAML and run terraform plan. By the time your PR is approved, the dev fixed it locally and deployed from their laptop. That’s not automation — that’s bureaucracy-as-code.”…
Each cloud has a sweet spot: 🌐 Azure → enterprise + hybrid ☁️ AWS → ecosystem + scale 🔎 GCP → data + AI 🏛️ OCI → cost + performance for databases Pick based on needs, not hype. #MultiCloud
Infrastructure drift is real. Terraform says 5 servers, but Azure shows 7. That’s why remote state + drift detection isn’t optional. IaC = truth… only if you guard it.
💀 “Half your cloud bill is zombie infrastructure.” “Half your cloud bill is zombie infrastructure. Dev spun up a VM in 2021, the engineer who owned it quit, and now it’s powering a forgotten staging environment. Nobody shuts it down ‘just in case’ — so you’re paying for…
Don’t pay for premium when standard works. One wrong SKU = thousands wasted. Always ask: Do we need high performance, or just reliability? 💸☁️ #CloudTips
Containers ≠ VMs. VMs = a whole house 🏠 (OS + app + furniture). Containers = apartments 🏢 (shared foundation, isolated units). That’s why they’re lightweight, fast, and portable. #CloudMadeSimple
☁️ Weekly Cloud Recap: 1️⃣ Kubernetes = air traffic controller for containers 2️⃣ Storage tiering saves $$$ 3️⃣ CI/CD = assembly line for code 4️⃣ Multi-cloud myths 5️⃣ DNS breaks apps more than firewalls Stay curious, stay clever, and Talk Nerdy to Me.
☁️ Infrastructure as Code Anti-Patterns 🧵 1️⃣ Hardcoding values instead of variables → brittle & messy. 2️⃣ Running terraform apply from laptops → chaos in production. 3️⃣ Copy-paste modules → drift city. 4️⃣ No remote state → ‘who ran apply last?’ mysteries. ✅ How to fix:…
☁️ Storage Pitfalls That Cost Big 🧵 1️⃣ Keeping logs in databases instead of object storage → $$$ wasted. 2️⃣ Forgetting lifecycle rules → hot storage forever. 3️⃣ Cross-region replication enabled by accident → double bills. 4️⃣ Orphaned snapshots/disks → silent money leak. 💡…
Which storage mistake have you seen the most? 👇 🔘 Keeping logs in expensive DBs 🔘 No lifecycle rules 🔘 Replication gone wild 🔘 All of the above 😅
This week’s nerdy learning: DNS breaks apps more often than firewalls. No DNS = no service discovery, no API calls, no logins. The smallest record can take down the biggest app. 🧩☁️
🚨 YAML is the COBOL of DevOps. Nobody loves it, but everyone defends it because their career depends on it. Every pipeline that takes 400 lines of YAML to deploy 3 containers is ceremonial suffering, not automation. Examples I’ve seen in the wild: •27 lines of YAML… to…
Running workloads across clouds isn’t always smart. Multi-cloud works when you: ✅ Need redundancy across providers ✅ Face compliance/regional constraints ❌ Just want to look cool in a slide deck 😅
