Since we have a strong history in web development, but also were involved in operating web applications we developed, the DevOps movement hit our nerves.<\/p>\n

Under the brand name “Flying Circus”<\/a> we are establishing a platform respecting the DevOps principles.<\/p>\n

A large portion of our day-to-day work is dedicated to DevOps related topics. We like to collaborate by sharing ideas and work on tools we all need to make operations and development of web applications a smooth experience. A guiding question: how can we improve the operability of web applications?<\/p>\n

A large field of sprintable topics comes to our mind:<\/p>\n

Logging<\/h2>\n

Enable web application developers to integrate logging mechanisms into their apps easily. By using modern tools like Logstash<\/a> for collecting and analyzing of the data, operators are able to find causes performance or other problems efficiently.<\/p>\n

Live-Debugging and Monitoring<\/h2>\n

Monitoring is a must when operation software. At least for some people (including ourselves), Nagios<\/a> is not the best fit for DevOps teams.<\/p>\n

Deploying<\/h2>\n

We always wanted to have reproducable automated deployments. Coming from the Zope world, started with zc.buildout, we developed our own deployment tool batou<\/a>. More recently upcoming projects, such as ansible<\/a>, and tools (more or less) bound to cloud services like heroku<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Backup<\/h2>\n

After using bacula<\/a> for a while, we started to work on backy<\/a>, which aims to work directly on volume files of virtual machines.<\/p>\n

and more\u2026<\/p>\n

Join us to work on these things and help to make DevOps better! The sprint will take place at our office, Forsterstra\u00dfe 29, Halle (Saale), Germany<\/a>. On September, 20th we will have a great party in the evening.<\/p>\n
