We can have two kinds of subnets inside a AWS VPC - private and public. A public subnet is one which is attached to an Internet Gateway. This essentially adds a routing table entry to the subnet's routing table sending all Internet traffic to an Internet Gateway. On the other hand …

My post recent posts are below. So far, I have written about C, Fedora, Golang, Infrastructure, Python and various others.
If you are trying to introduce flyway to an existing database with the schemas and tables already created, you may find flyway baseline command useful.
Let's say you already have the migration scripts written, or perhaps dumped out of your existing DB setup, and they are:
V1__foo.sql
V2__foo_new.sql …Let's say you have made a few changes to a file and only want to stage only some of those changes for commit. You may want to do so either to create a nice commit history or may be you just want to discard some of the changes. Either way …
In a previous post, I shared that we are going to have Fedora Scientific Vagrant boxes with the upcoming Fedora 29 release. Few weeks back, I wanted to try out a more recent build to script some of the testing I do on Fedora Scientific boxes to make sure that …
While attempting to use flyway for SQL server schema migrations, I was consistently getting
an error of the form Found non-empty schema xxx ithout metadata table! Use init() or set initOnMigrate to true to
initialize the metadata table.. Okay, so easy - let me just delete the tables, drop the schema …
While working on creating a template file for a Golang project, I wanted to better understand how to work
with data in Golang templates as available via the html/template package. In this post, I discuss
a few use cases that may arise.

to avoid running into permission issues. Using user namespacing also keeping things a bit sane without adopting
sub-optimal alternatives.
Introduction
Let's consider that we are leveraging docker …
AWS Route 53 private hosted zones enable you to have private DNS names which only resolve from your VPC. This is great when working from EC2 instances since everything is setup and ready to go. This however becomes a problem when using docker containers on a systemd system. On such …
In this post, I discuss a problem (and its solution) I encountered while working with AWS (Amazon Web Services) Network ACLs, docker containers and ephermal port ranges.
Infrastructure setup
A Linux EC2 instance with docker engine running in a VPC with inbound and outbound traffic controlled by Network ACLs.
