Terascope | Software / Data / UI Engineers | Phoenix AZ | ONSITE
Terascope provides software and technical services to assist companies deploying Elasticsearch at scale. We assist customers with design, development and operations and through our Open Source efforts are developing the Teraslice platform for distributed JavaScript.
Our technical platform is Node.js, Typescript, React, Elasticsearch, Kafka and Kubernetes and our systems process hundreds of billions of pieces of data every day using Teraslice. If you're fascinated by the scalability of data processing and interested in developing a platform at the intersection of search, batch and stream processing this can be an interesting opportunity.
We're hiring UI Engineers, Software engineers, Data Engineers. Please see our open jobs for detail on the available positions https://terascope.applytojob.com/apply
CoreOS is an operating system designed to run docker containers. You would use it as lighter weight replacement for something like Ubuntu as the base os that Docker runs on. When you install CoreOS you basically just get a kernel, Docker and etcd plus a minimal number of other processes. Etcd is designed as a way to allow a distributed set of containers to self-configure.
Flynn is an open source project to build a "platform as a service" platform on top of Docker. In theory Flynn could run on top of CoreOS.
Yep, jails, containers, solaris zones all the way back to IBM mainframes have been similar core technologies. Docker it self isn't containerization, Docker builds on Linux containers but adds a layer to dramatically simplify the build, distribution and execution of containers and that's what makes it game changing.
docker run gtihub.com/some/project
That command will clone, build and execute a container based on the contents of a repository by simply dropping a Dockerfile in the root of the project. That's a fundamentally different level of usage beyond any existing container technology.
The browser is already a thick client with local storage and lots of local logic. The difference is that the entire client is shipped to the browser on demand.
Yep I'm just a fan and minor contributor to Docker. Thought it was interesting to see a book so early but I do agree it's probably too early. Docker is changing fast. Version 0.5 should likely be out today.
Vagrant is intended to make starting, provisioning and then destroying and rebuilding virtual machine instances quick and easy. It makes it much easier to bring up VMs in different configurations for different projects and provides a way to store the runtime environment configuration with the code for a particular project. It's primarily a tool for software developers but as it gains more provisioning capability it's roll seems to be expanding and you can use ansible as a tool to provision a vagrant VM.
Docker is a layer on top of raw containers that makes them more usable. In particular the tools it provides to create and publish containers are extremely useful. It uses LXC under the covers and there is talk about supporting other container implementations as well.
Well given that the JumpBox for Ruby on Rails isn't really about EC2 or scalability the original submission is a little misleading. JumpBoxes do run on EC2, but they are also downloadable and run on VMWare, Parallels, Microsoft Virtual PC and Xen so that you can have the exact same environment whether in the cloud, on a local server or on your desktop. This is the unique advantage.
