Ha! It’s actually patch (as in select parts of the patch) though I remember it as partial.

I share your disdain for buzzwords but SRE is definitely a different role.

Ah got it, thanks. I thought you were testing the image somehow, a bit like inspec.

Still cool though, nice.

Could you tell me more about the playwright tests? From what I can see it's a web testing framework, I don't see how that fits in here.

> My CI server uses Firecracker VM's to isolate OCI containers

Is this something you built yourself? I've been looking for a CI tool that uses Firecracker but never found anything, I started building something myself but it never really got finished. Would love to drop that project and use something off the shelf.

Yes, the article did.

Framework has open sourced the EC firmware, not the boot firmware. The UEFI implementation is still closed source proprietary InsydeH2O software.

Hashicorp's Vault works quite nicely. Teleport is another tool I believe handles this but haven't used it personally.

Right, running ECS on EC2, not Fargate on EC2. When ECS launched it only had the EC2 launch type (where as you said you must manage your machines). Fargate then came along for both ECS and EKS where Amazon managed the machines for you.

Fargate on EC2? Sorry you’ve lost me, I understood Fargate to be a layer of AWS managed compute for ECS or EKS deliberately instead of EC2.

I would imagine so the default behaviour could be identical across platforms.

I agree that it’s boring and works well. It’s also what I’m most worried about finding a reasonable alternative, we can’t just not update Vault.

Sadly Secrets Manager doesn’t hit all the features I need. Really hoping for an OpenTF-style fork of Vault.

What are you looking at for a Vault replacement?

Obviously it’s a different OS and possibly isn’t relevant to you but I’ve found solace in OpenBSD (and other BSDs) in the search of “simplicity” of “the old days”.
