Monolith vs. Microservices: Which Should You Choose? #devopsinterview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Should you deploy a monolith on EC2 or go straight to microservices on EKS/ECS? Here is the real architectural trade-off every engineering team faces. Key takeaways: - Startups & Early-Stage Products: When domain boundaries are fluid and teams lack dedicated cluster management resources, a well-structured monolith reduces overhead and accelerates delivery. - When to Adopt Containers (EKS/ECS): Choose microservices when you need independent scaling, team decoupling, fine-grained deployments, and
How to Troubleshoot Kubernetes Clusters Like a Pro #devopsinterview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Kubernetes production triage can be tricky if you don't know where to look. Here are the top troubleshooting scenarios you encounter on real clusters: What we cover: - CrashLoopBackOff & Pending Pods: Pinpointing root causes fast using kubectl describe pod and reading cluster events. - Secret & Permission Failures: Identifying missing RBAC, IRSA misconfigurations, or key retrieval bottlenecks. - Node Capacity & Scaling Limits: Diagnosing unschedulable pods when autoscaling hits max limits and re
Terraform Strategy for Multi-Account AWS #devopsinterview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Managing infrastructure across shared core accounts (Security, Network, Log Archive) and multi-environment app accounts (Dev, UAT, Prod)? Here is how to architect your Terraform directory. Key takeaways: - Centralizing reusable base infrastructure using dedicated Terraform module directories (tf-modules). - Structuring environment-specific folders to prevent state blast radiuses while driving configuration via input variables. - Maintaining dry, auditable, and decoupled infrastructure code acros
How to Connect On-Prem to AWS (VPN vs Direct Connect) #devopsinterview (opens the original)
Read excerpt
How do you allow Kubernetes pods running on Amazon EKS to access AWS resources like Amazon DynamoDB and Amazon S3 without embedding static API keys? In this mock interview snippet, we break down: - Why hardcoding IAM access keys and secret keys in container apps is a major anti-pattern. - How IAM Roles for Service Accounts (IRSA) connects an IAM role directly to a Kubernetes ServiceAccount using OIDC. - Implementing the principle of least privilege at the pod level instead of the EC2 node level.
