🖋 Some of the important points covered in the webinar are:

What is CVS?

The centralized Version Control system is used to store the code in the centralized storage and the code management was at file-level instead of repository level as used in modern version control system like git. Code is stored at any central storage and commits the changes to the central copy. There are some more benefits like it can be used in big teams, easy to create and merge branches and actions can be added.

Why is Git preferred over CVS?

Git is the distributed version control system that has an edge over the central version control system over the management. Git uses distributed storage for versioning. So, you have a local copy and remote copy which can help you test your own code over a local system.

What is the need for different environments in Production?

We need different environments like testing, development and production environment. Production environment is the deployed code that must not be touched before the code is tested properly. Development environment is used for developing new features in the product and the code is pushed. Then, the code is tested in the testing environment. It is used to increase the independence of the teams and increase productivity.

What is Chaos Testing?

In chaos testing, the failures are caused intentionally in the production environment to know how the system works at the time of the real-failure.

What are CPU Requests, CPU Limits, CPU Leaks?

When any of the programs becomes a process, it needs the CPU cores to execute the process. But, how much cores do the process need? CPU request tells how much CPU do the process need and is allocated. CPU limit is used to create the upper bound over which the CPU will not be allocated or the system will not perform well. CPU leaks include not releasing cores even after the execution of the process and occupied for a long.

What are Linux Namespaces?

Linux namespaces are the feature of Linux kernel that partition the kernel resources such that one set of resources while other processes see other sets of resources.

What is the use of Grafana?

Grafana is the visualization tool and provides interactive graphs, charts, alerts when connected to supported data sources.

It was a very informative session given by the industry experts and conducted by Vimal Daga Sir and Preeti Chandak Ma’am. Thank you so much for organizing such a wonderful session.

Thank you for reading :)
