Jonathan Rosser

Really proud of what my team @BBCRD have achieved to help understand the environmental impact of on-prem infrastructure. Powered by @OpenStack, @ansible, @PrometheusIO and @grafana.

@northernassist Thankyou!

@thejrosser Really sorry to hear this Jonathan. The photocard should be sufficient as proof of age when travelling. I will feed this back to the team with regards to this station. ^DS

@northernassist Why is my 11 year old being asked to produce further proof of age by your staff at Manc Piccadilly in addition to the special yellow childs photocard? Proof of age required for that photocard in the first place.... see nationalrail.co.uk/times_fares/ti…

Great to see contributions to open source projects from @bazzalisk @BBCRD making a real world difference. Very cool write-up from @SWITCH_ch on their use case. #opensource #upstreamfirst #OpenStack #Ceph

@thejrosser @PrometheusIO ooooou, that’s super useful. I am going to start digging from there.

dang. am I missing something or seems like the only way to detect any ooms in Linux is only via dmesg? I’m trying to find a way to catch ooms via @PrometheusIO alerts...

@ErlangSolutions packages.erlang-solutions.com/ubuntu bionic Release.gpg 2020-01-28 The following signatures were invalid: BADSIG D208507CA14F4FCA Erlang Solutions Ltd. <packages@erlang-solutions.com .... can you take a look? Been doing this on and off all week.

@ErlangSolutions Super! Thankyou very much

@thejrosser Thanks for you patience, this should be fixed now :)

@ErlangSolutions can you check your Ubuntu repo hash sums please :) storage.bhs1.cloud.ovh.net/v1/AUTH_dcaab5…

The @OpenStack Ansible team is proud to publish our first official Stein release! I'm super happy and proud of our entire team and I can confidently say you can run production-grade OpenStack deployed easily via @ansible at scale!

@mellanoxtech @european Awesome to see this - great demo to complement the EBU NTS talks from @BBCRD and the @OpenStack Foundation about cloud use cases for broadcast applications.

If you’ve missed our demonstration at @European Broadcasting Union - EBU Network Technology Seminar including the Mellanox Rivermax OpenStack KVM Cloud ST2110 Solution, and Mellanox On-switch TR1001 infrastructure. You can see them here. Thanks to everyone who stopped by.

The broadcasting industry is starting its transformation toward using software-defined infrastructure, like others before it -- It's great to witness those early stages in person and explain how #OpenStack can help

@_mnaser @markgoddard86 @OpenStack @vexxhost Keep it simple with the right tool, this is territory where ZFS excels. Not many people seem to know about the .zfs directory. All versions of your repo would be available all time pthree.org/2012/12/19/zfs…

@markgoddard86 @OpenStack @vexxhost You know, that was actually my first personal instinct. Using a layered file system which I can easily snapshot as I went through, but I've seen bad things happen in the past with layered filesystems and it can get pretty complex.

All @OpenStack at @vexxhost is upstream. We're now going to start open sourcing tooling that allows us to build reliable infrastructure github.com/vexxhost/yum-m… This toolset allows you to maintain a set of frozen packages to avoid package drift across large fleets of servers.

@dmw_83 @BBCRD The frames per object read/write can be varied - the objects are of the roughly 10's of MB right now. Building a scalable object store optimised for throughput ends up in a quite different place to most IOPS-chasing reference designs. Other example here sched.co/MARK

Great to work with so many talented people @BBCRD to make this happen. Big shout to the #OpenStack-Ansible folks too - super community to be part of.

@_craigt_ Carburettor needle, probably from an SU carb, from a Mini?

... seriously impressed with anyone who can tell me what the ling thin object is... even more of they know what it came from!

@dmw_83 @cloudnull I'm using this every day with LXD and it's great. We get a solid 2x runtime reduction. Can't wait to wire up the last few pieces into Openstack-Ansible. And for network devices, just don't use the mitogen strategy on those hosts groups..... simple :)

@cloudnull @elastic @OpenStack This is awesome stuff:)

The new Infrastructure and Log panels in #Elasticsearch 6.5.x are lovely. While my screenshots are from my little lab, getting insight into my large scale #OpenStack-Ansible environments has been wonderful with 6.5.x! Check out - github.com/openstack/open… #OSA
