My learning capability keep growing with this daily dose !! :) I like the statement given in one of the author -Kubernetes is like captain of ship where multiple container clusters carried in the huge ship. This is a first step that will help you to enter into world of Kubernetes cluster technologies. Kubernetes is also known as k8s, this is quite young technology in the DevOps stack. Here we have two options to work-out on Learning Kubernetes: Kubernetes installing in master-slave in multiple nodes Minikube running a locally single node The first option will be used in real-time production environments, and the other is used for learning purposes. Here I've selected the second option for running WebLogic on Minikube. Benefits of Kubernetes cluster There are many benefits but in brief for WebLogic   Kubernetes is the core component in Cloud Native Engineering pla...

Writing this blog post after couple of executions experiments and research on docker. The basic requirement for docker is there must be a Linux/Unix based platform. Here I am creating that one on my Windows host machine, and the guest Ubuntu Trusty64 platform with the help of Vagrant and Oracle Virtualbox provider. vagrant Ubuntu docker - Oracle Linux images In this Article I am not dicuss about from the scratch What is docker etc. I'm not talking about Virtualization vs Containerization. Create testnode1 folder on the Windows machine. I've created on F:\testnode1. The Vagrantfile to launch Ubuntu Trusty64 Virtual machine is as follows: Vagrantfile # -*- mode: ruby -*- # vi: set ft=ruby : Vagrant.configure(2) do |config| config.vm.define "test" do |testnode1| testnode1.vm.box = "williamyeh/ubuntu-trusty64-docker" testnode1.vm.hostname="testnode1.vybhava.com" testnode1.vm.network "private_network", ip: "192.168.33...

Usually when you are working on building the platform for any application, you might be given UNIX (Solaris/Linux/HP-UX/AIX) boxes and new generation with Virtual boxes. which contains nothing you need to do many installations and configurations. To make your administrative task easy and simple we need to setup a fine tuned profile file. This profile file will be holding the multiple environment variables those are reusable when you log-on to UNIX Kernel  Here you can define shell functions or you can define simple single lined aliases that makes lengthy commands set to simple trimmed single letter or meaningful words. What is user SHELL and  its profile association? In your UNIX Kernel when a new user login will check the /etc/passwd file which shell is assigned by the super-user. It will look for the system profile and assign the environment values, then on top of it user profile can be loaded. Hence the variable is defined in system profile can be overridden by u...
