We’ve all been there: the kick-off meeting that was nothing more than 60 minutes of your life that you’ll never get back. So now that it’s your turn to run one, you’re determined not to go down the same path.

But where did those kick-off-meetings-gone-wrong actually go wrong? What were their fatal flaws? And how can you make your meeting a good use of everyone’s time?

I’ve been practicing Agile methodologies for some time now. The most common ceremony that I’ve seen Agile teams do is stand-up also known as daily Scrum meeting.

Standing up Kubernetes and getting your apps running on it is a fairly straightforward process, but when it comes to updating and deploying apps, it is not always so simple. In particular, performing manual Kubernetes deployments with a large development team can be error-prone:

  • Almost everything related to deployments or most user-facing components in Kubernetes are defined in YAML files. These can be frustratingly error-prone with no feedback when things go wrong.
  • Kubernetes applications are comprised of several different resource types, some of which may need upgrading, and depending on the type of app you are working on, knowing what to update can make deployments complex.
  • Keeping track of the diff history, managing rollbacks of new and old deployments especially when you are working on a large application within a team can be challenging.
  • Managing secrets in Kubernetes between team members working on the same app across different repos requires that you are careful.

To mitigate these problems the ultimate goal for developers working with apps running in Kubernetes is to automate the workflow for code updates to achieve an end-to-end Continuous Integration/Continuous Delivery (CI/CD) pipeline.

What is User Experience Design? Why does it matter? Many people have absolutely no idea about what a UX Designer really does. Some have an idea, but they’re wrong about the function of UX and UI. That’s why we asked Maria, our UX Designer, to explain a few essential things about the field.

What does it mean to you to be a UX Designer?

Well, for me personally, it’s the satisfaction of the work that drives me. UX Design means interesting projects, learning new things every day as well as the possibility to meet new interesting people.
