In the previous post we designed the experiment, simulated different operational states and confirmed that the results were as expected – more or less. Here we go over the implementation and a few relevant code snippets before wrapping up this series of posts. As usual the package is available for download… Read more »
In the previous post we built a virtual ELK cluster with Vagrant and Ansible, where the individual VMs comprising the cluster were carved out of a single host. While that allowed for a self-contained development & testing of all the necessary artifacts – it is not a real world scenario…. Read more »
It has been a while unfortunately since I sat down for some writing on this blog. But the writing bug is persistent – once hooked, you got to write. Serious writing requires original research, data collection/analysis etc… so can take a good bit of time depending on the topic. I had… Read more »
Ready to write again after an extended break over the holidays and we start off where we left in 2015 with our unfinished quotes… The objective for this post is to assemble the data we need to analyze the nature of quotes in some way, at least in a dry statistical sense to… Read more »
We take a break from the H-1B analysis and set the stage here for future posts that require us to work in environments with distributed compute & storage. A simple way to simulate them is with Virtualbox as the provider of VMs (‘Virtual Machines’) & Vagrant as a the front-end… Read more »
The previous post in this series detailed what we would like to find out from the published data around the H-1B program. Here we go over the setting up of the apparatus (using only open source tools) so to speak that we will use in future posts to get some… Read more »
