[AWS 101] What are SNS and SQS

Briefly note what AWS SNS and SQS services do and their use cases

Ray

Amazon Simple Queue Service (SQS) and Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) may look similar.
But in reality, they are quite different.

Serverless 101

Introducing What is Serverless with AWS Services

Ray

Since our company’s services are built on AWS and heavily rely on various serverless computing services,
I had no prior experience in this area. This series serves as a compilation of notes for me,
and its content may be subject to constant revisions in the future.

Interacting with smart contracts using Golang

Generating a Go package with abigen tool to interact with smart contracts and perform contract operations

Ray

Previously, I was calling Smart Contracts through PHP, which raised two issues.
One was the slowness, and the other was the lack of maintenance of the package.
Fortunately, Golang provides an official package that is both fast and solves these two problems.
This article explains how to convert existing Smart Contract ABIs into a Go package for interacting with contracts.

Create a Redis service on GCP

Set up a Redis service using Google Cloud MemoryStore.

Ray

GCP offers the Google Cloud MemoryStore service for creating Redis or Memcached caching machine services.
The pricing is similar to that of setting up a database.
I thought it would be as inexpensive as using virtual machines (VMs).

Make your computer be temporarily accessible on the internet. - Ngrok

Use Ngrok to temporarily obtain a publicly accessible URL for your computer.

Ray

In development, it is often encountered that testing on the local machine requires a publicly accessible URL for services.
Or webhooks to use as a callback. Moreover, these services often require HTTPS certification.
Are there any other options besides setting up a cloud server for this purpose?

Jenkins CI/CD 04 - Using SSH Commands to Operate another VM Instance in GCP

Enable Jenkins to perform remote operations on a remote host through SSH, replacing manual deployment.

Ray

In a non-automated deployment scenario, manually connecting to the server host’s internals is required every time.
Executing deployment commands or running deployment command executables not only involves inconvenience but also carries the risk of human error.
With Jenkins’ pipeline, we can replace manual execution, making deployments easier and more pleasant.

Jenkins CI/CD 03 - Building and Pushing Docker Images to GCR

This article discusses the process of building a Docker image and pushing it to the Google Container Registry (GCR) within a Jenkins pipeline using the 'gcloud' command.

Ray

Google Container Registry is a service provided by Google for storing, managing, and securing Docker container images.
The objective at hand is to package a Docker image and push it to Google Cloud Platform (GCP) using the ‘gcloud’ command for future deployment purposes.
