The first stable release of OpenTofu (the fork of Terraform) has now been released. This release is lagging behind the current 1.6.6 release of Terraform, but it is a big first step. This release is backwards compatible with Terraform 1.6.0 and includes a few new features....
Amazon has finished setting up their second Canadian AWS region. This is big news for anyone in western Canada as regional public cloud coverage has been non-existent, until now. Previously, your only options had been eastern Canada (Montreal) and eastern Canada (Toronto). This is also big news for data sovereignty on AWS....
It looks like the ‘TF’ part of OpenTF was too similar to Terraform and they have come up with a new name for the project. In addition, the project is now a part of the Linux Foundation and they have a new website....
us-east-1 and us-west-2 regions are experiencing networking issues and it also having an affect on a number of other cloud services that rely on those regions....
The Github repository for the community fork of Terraform (called OpenTF) has been made public. If you use any third-party tooling (SpaceLift, Scalr, Env0, Terraspace, Terragrunt, Atlantis, Digger, etc.) you will probably want to plan a switch to using OpenTF instead of Terraform to remain license compliant. Well, it is actually...
CloudFormation is the most featureless of the Infrastructure-as-Code template languages. It is miles behind Terraform, Azure ARM/Bicep, and Google Cloud Deployment Manger. I don’t think there has been any direct improvement with the language syntax since the introduction of YAML support over a decade ago. The core syntax and...
The recent change in licensing across all Hashicorp products shows that Hashicorp is not able to or willing to compete with competitors to their enterprise offerings. Even though they officially don’t state it, the change is targeted at competitors such as Spacelift, Scalr, and Env0. Those competitors only came to be to fill...
I have been researching the current state of Terraform automation and collaboration tools on behalf of a client and this is a new one that has emerged as a possible option. The client needs something to help manage their many pipelines and state files, but they are not big enough to need a full enterprise Terraform management...
I’m following a tutorial for creating docker containers, and it is having me go through the AWS beanstalk to create the environment to host the app, but I can’t get the environment all the way there. Everytime I get some error about an instance profile I think it was called, and I’ve tried creating users, roles, and giving...

I was wonder how cloud providers seemed to have a bottomless pits of IPv4 addresses and weren’t more resistant to handing them out like candy. They should be charging more for this scarce resource. AWS was, until now, the only cloud provider to not charge for static public IPv4 addresses, as long as the elastic IP is in use....
Prometheus will soon include support for ingesting OpenTelementry metrics into the platform. Even if you understood all of those words, you might be asking, “so what?”. This is a big deal for observability (fancy name for monitoring) as it is getting us one step closer to using a single agent to collect all observability...
If you use Fargate and have Linux x86 tasks with images over 250Mb, you might be interested in this new feature that should shave time off of your task deployments....
