Secure, seamless access to databases and servers.

Whether you're developer, DevOps engineer, SysAdmin, QA or in any other technical role, you're surely familiar with cURL - the command line tool and library for transferring data with URLs (as described in docs).

Most of the time however, we all really only use curl for simple tasks, such downloading a file or checking if website is accessible, yet there's some much more curl can do!

And in this article we will go through exactly those cool examples and tricks to showcase why curl is awesome and underappreciated tool...

Explore an in-depth guide to database sharding: what it is, its types, how to select shard keys, and route queries for building scalable systems.

Failure is an expected state in production systems, and no predictable failure of either software or hardware components should result in a negative experience for users. The exact failure mode may vary, but certain remediation steps must be taken after detection. A common example is when an error occurs on a server, rendering it unfit for production workloads, and requiring action to recover.

When operating at Cloudflare’s scale, it is important to ensure that our platform is able to recover from faults seamlessly. It can be tempting to rely on the expertise of world-class engineers to remediate these faults, but this would be manual, repetitive, unlikely to produce enduring value, and not scaling. In one word: toil; not a viable solution at our scale and rate of growth.

In this post we discuss how we built the foundations to enable a more scalable future, and what problems it has immediately allowed us to solve.

Picking the right base image for your Node.js application can be challenging. Different variants of the official Docker node image vary x5 in size and x10 in the number of reported CVEs, but the smallest image is not always the best. There is also bitnami/node, which is similar but not identical to the "official" Docker image. And, of course, don't forget about the distroless options such as cgr.dev/chainguard/node and gcr.io/distroless/nodejs. So, which Node.js image should you use and when?

As exciting as starting a new Terraform project may sound, the first question is where and how we begin. What should be the first file that needs to be created?

Various aspects influence the way we manage our Terraform config in a repository. In this post, we will learn about them and discuss a few important strategies and best practices around structuring Terraform project files in an efficient and standardized way.
