This post chronicles our adventure of implementing (and migrating) our Kubernetes storage provisioning from FlexVolumes to Third Party Resources to Storage Classes.

This is a story of why we have migrated from Phing to Make.

We have been running containers in production for more than a year now and want to share some of the lessons learnt, by open sourcing our container suite.

In this blog post we will take you though all the components required to provision a high availability Drupal 8 stack on Microsoft Azure. This is an extract from the demonstration given at Microsoft Ignite on the Gold Coast in November 2015.

Docker is reinventing the way we package and deploy our applications, bringing new challenges to hosting. In this blog post I will provide a recipe for logging your Docker packaged applications.

PreviousNext and our Continuous Integration (build system) have been on a journey for the past 3 years. We are now onto our 3rd generation and would like to share with you some of the concepts and technologies behind it.

The DrupalCI initiative is geared towards developing tools for the next generation of testing on Drupal.org. In the following video I will demonstrate the "Results" component responsible for providing build feedback.

Lightning talks were recently incorporated into the weekly developers meeting agenda. This week I have put my hand up to speak about Phing and implementing a basic build file sharing pattern.

At the recent DrupalCon Amsterdam sprints something amazing happened, people from all corners of the globe assembled to sprint on DrupalCI. DrupalCI is an initiative born out of the requirement for new testbot infrastructure. Our goal is to implement a brand new Continuous Integration (CI) workflow that can not only be used for Drupal but anyone wishing to run a CI infrastructure / Automated tasks. Until this point we had only corresponded via a weekly hangout and IRC.

While this was keeping us on track with building out some of the components, the conference gave us an opportunity to sit down in the same room and perform an end-to-end architectural review to ensure we didn't have any gaps. A modular design approach has been used to ensure that many of the following components could be used as a standalone entity in any infrastructure.

Cameron Zemek (@grom358) and myself got the priviledge of speaking at DrupalCon Amsterdam as a part of the Core Conversation track. This was off the back of the work that we had been doing in core to swap out some of simpletest module with libraries. We were also joined by Konstantin Kudryashov (@everzet) creator/maintainer of the Behat, Mink and PHPSpec projects.
