We are debugging one issue with memory usage in Kubernetes Pods, and decided to look at the memory and number of processes on the nodes. The problem is that a Kubernetes Pod with Livekit usually consumes about 2 gigabytes of memory, but sometimes there are spikes of up to 10-11 gigabytes, which causes the Pod… Read More »
Let’s continue our journey with AWS OpenSearch Service. What we have is a small AWS OpenSearch Service cluster with three data nodes, used as a vector store for AWS Bedrock Knowledge Bases. Previous parts: AWS: Introduction to OpenSearch Service as a vector store AWS: Creating an OpenSearch Service cluster and configuring authentication and authorization Terraform:… Read More »
In the first part, we covered the basics of AWS OpenSearch Service in general and the types of instances for Data Nodes – AWS: Getting Started with OpenSearch Service as a Vector Store. In the second part, we covered access, AWS: Creating an OpenSearch Service Cluster and Configuring Authentication and Authorization. Now let’s write Terraform… Read More »
Ephemeral resources and write-only arguments appeared in Terraform a long time ago, back in version 1.10, but there was no opportunity to write about them in detail. The main idea behind them is not to leave “traces” in the state file, which is especially useful for passwords or tokens, because the data only exists during… Read More »
We are currently using AWS OpenSearch Service as a vector store for our RAG with AWS Bedrock Knowledge Base. We will talk more about RAG and Bedrock another time, but today let’s take a look at AWS OpenSearch Service. The task is to migrate our AWS OpenSearch Service Serverless to Managed, primarily due to (surprise)… Read More »
In the previous part, AWS: Getting Started with OpenSearch Service as a Vector Store, we looked at AWS OpenSearch Service in general, figured out how data is organized in it, what shards and nodes are, and what types of instances we actually need for data nodes. The next step is to create a cluster and… Read More »
In the previous part – Arch Linux: installation in 2025 – disks, encryption, system installation – we installed the system itself, now we’ve gotten around to the working environment. Let’s go through the general settings of Arch Linux (more precisely, any Linux), then talk about the choice of Desktop Environments, and actually install and configure… Read More »
We use two systems for collecting logs in the project: Grafana Loki and VictoriaLogs, to which Promtail simultaneously writes all collected logs. We cannot get rid of Loki: although developers have long since switched to VictoriaLogs, some alerts are still created from metrics generated by Loki, so it is still present in the system. And… Read More »
AWS EKS Terraform module version v21.0.0 added support for the AWS Provider Version 6. Documentation – here>>>. The main changes in the AWS EKS module are the replacement of IRSA with EKS Pod Identity for the Karpenter sub-module: Native support for IAM roles for service accounts (IRSA) has been removed; EKS Pod Identity is now… Read More »
We have a VictoriaLogs Helm chart with a PVC size of 30 GB, which is no longer enough for us, and we need to increase it. But the problem is that .spec.volumeClaimTemplates[*].spec.resources.requests.storage in STS is immutable, that is, we can’t just change the size through values.yaml file, because it will lead to the error“Forbidden: updates… Read More »
