🌍 DevOps isn't just YAML and Jenkins pipelines.
It's invisible labor, platform stability, late-night rollbacks, and fighting outages so users never notice.
I wrote about the real work DevOps engineers do — the kind no one talks about.

Excellent firewalld deep-dive that treats it as the sophisticated tool it actually is 🔥
Defense-in-depth strategy. Cloud firewalls (AWS Security Groups, etc.) handle perimeter security, but firewalld prevents lateral movement within your network.
Great resource for anyone running serious Linux infrastructure:

Building Scalable Cloud Infrastructure with Terraform on AWS
OSMEx 2025 - GONICUS unterwegs auf der #OSMEX2025 in Chemnitz.
Zwischen Cloud, Code und Coffee haben wir über offene Infrastrukturen, Infrastructure as Code und echte Unabhängigkeit gesprochen. Danke an alle, die mit uns über die Zukunft digitaler Freiheit diskutiert haben. Wir nehmen viele gute Impulse mit zurück!

IBM acquires HashiCorp: Terraform and Ansible to work together
Red Hat has been part of IBM since 2019, HashiCorp since February 2025. IBM has thus acquired Ansible and Terraform. It is now clear how the tools work together.
IBM übernimmt HashiCorp: Terraform und Ansible sollen zusammenarbeiten
Red Hat gehört seit 2019 zu IBM, HashiCorp seit Februar 2025. IBM hat damit Ansible und Terraform gekauft. Jetzt wird klar, wie die Werkzeuge zusammenarbeiten.
Just published a post on my journey into #SelfHosting: building a #K3s home cluster with #Terraform, #Ansible, and some delightfully evil shutdown logic to save power without breaking anything.

🚦 Terraform: Declarative vs Imperative!
I ran an experiment comparing best practices and anti-patterns in Terraform. See how using native loops and avoiding forced dependencies leads to cleaner, more maintainable infrastructure code. Full repo with graphs and explanations—no secrets, just pure IaC learning!

Discover how #PklLang is redefining Infrastructure as Code!
Unlike complex #YAML, Pkl uses schemas & constraints for robust configuration management, catching errors early and providing clear feedback.

#Ansible vs #Terraform: Which is More Secure for Infrastructure Automation?
Ansible and Terraform are excellent tools for secure infrastructure automation. They can be used individually or together to maximize the benefits. Using both of them may not be cost-efficient, though. In deciding which one to use, it is important to carefully examine the operational goals and your #DevOps team’s security workflows.
