Starting this week, we have an important advice for you: A very serious security problem has been found in the Linux kernel called “The Stack Clash”. Check the first section to see how to fix it. Moving forward, a presentation about Prometheus, an open source monitoring, and alerting system. On Articles, we have Infrakit and Linuxkit to build immutable infrastructure, deploying .Net application using Docker and Kubernetes, and the Zalando experience to run PostgreSQL on Kubernetes. To close we have a list of the top 10 log management tool and some things you should know about before using Amazon’s Elasticsearch services on AWS. Please, send us links, event, comic strip, DevOps job related, etc., via @devopsweeknews.

Prometheus Monitoring for Java Developers by Fabian Stäber - YouTube
Prometheus is an open source monitoring tool, which is conceptually based on Google’s internal Borgmon monitoring system. Unlike traditional tools like Nagios, Prometheus implements a white-box monitoring approach: Applications actively provide metrics, these metrics are stored in a time-series database, the time-series data is used as a source for generating alerts. Prometheus comes with a powerful query language allowing for statistical evaluation of metrics. Many modern infrastructure components have Prometheus metrics built-in, like Docker’s cAdvisor, Kubernetes, or Consul. Moreover, there are libraries for instrumenting proprietary applications in a lot of programming languages. This talk gives an introduction to monitoring with Prometheus and shows how Java applications can expose metrics for Prometheus monitoring environments and how to instrument applications directly in code, as well as how to expose JMX beans in legacy applications. Dr. Fabian Stäber is a software developer, research, and development lead, consultant, architect, at ConSol* Consulting & Solutions Software GmbH in Munich, Germany. He is excited about JEE, clustered back-ends, Big Data applications, and advanced distributed architectures and also a member of the JSR 373 expert group.

Why Infrakit & LinuxKit are better together for Building Immutable Infrastructure? – Collabnix
LinuxKit is gaining momentum in terms of a toolkit for building custom minimal, immutable Linux distributions. Integration of Infrakit with LinuxKit will help users to build and deploy custom OS images to a variety of targets – from a single VM instance on the mac (via xhyve / hyperkit, no virtualbox) to a cluster of them. In this article, Ajeet Singh Raina will show you how to do InfraKit and LinuxKit work together to build immutable infrastructure.
