Since late 2024, I&rsquo;ve been using <strong>Docker</strong> a lot for my projects. It’s been a game changer, no more dependency errors, broken setups, or messy environments. It just works. But once I started looking into real-world use cases for Docker, I saw a lot of mentions of Kubernetes, <strong>K8s</strong> for short.</p> <h2 id="what-is-kubernetes-">What is Kubernetes ?</h2> <p>It&rsquo;s an open source <strong>container orchestration platform</strong>. Which means that using it you can run, manage, and scale containerized apps accross clusters of machines. It’s designed for large-scale applications, where managing containers manually with Docker quickly gets messy. You have to worry about starting/stopping containers, restarting them when they crash, assigning ports, managing storage, keeping track of their health, and more.</p> https://marcus1car.github.io/posts/ansible/ Sat, 12 Apr 2025 14:45:36 +0200 https://marcus1car.github.io/posts/ansible/ <p>I recently started digging more into Infrastructure as Code (<em>IaC</em>) tools and <em>Devops</em> tools in general to gain skills and knowledge for my future internship. In this series of articles, I will go over multiple tools and topics. We will mainly cover the basics, concepts, and provide simple examples. If I end up doing a lab with a specific tool, I will publish an article for it.</p> <p>Here we will cover one of the most popular IaC tools out there, <strong>Ansible</strong>. We will look at how it works, and where it fits in the world of IT automation.</p> https://marcus1car.github.io/posts/securedockercontainer_1/ Sat, 25 Jan 2025 16:35:43 +0100 https://marcus1car.github.io/posts/securedockercontainer_1/ <h2 id="introduction-to-my-docker-security-project">Introduction to My Docker Security Project</h2> <p>As my first independent project , I aim to create a secure, isolated environment for file analysis and execution. This series of blog posts will chronicle the development of my Secure Docker Container, offering insights into Docker, cybersecurity principles, and practical software development.</p> <p><strong>Why this project?</strong> In cybersecurity, safely analyzing potentially harmful files is crucial. A secure, controlled environment helps professionals examine files without risking their main system. This blog series will document my journey, mistakes, lessons, and successes included.</p>
