Docker Swarm by its own, and also any kind of cloud orchestrator, lacks of API Gateway management. The main focus of Cloud Platform is to provide orchestration and network communication between microservice. But the Gateway is important as well if you need to expose API to a client (say a ReactJS application, or a mobile […]
Job Orchestrator with consuming policy
A common architecture for business logic is defined by BPMN, and a well known implementation is provided by Camunda. But BPMN has a general purpose target, so it is oversized for a specific problem. As a SaaS provider, you want to: Sometime your service is based on API provided by third party, so you must […]
Docker Swarm setup, and Jenkins Deploy
Nowaday Docker Swarm is an entry level project, used just for study purpose. But really there was a time when it was competing with Kubernetes, just because it is simpler, easy to setup and maintain, and with a quick learning curve. These aspect make Docker Swarm ideal for starting to thinking about microservice architecture, design, […]

On Software Architetture(s)
Every piece of software written has an architecture. Yes, even a bash script has a (embryonal) architecture: it has input, output, and satisfy some kind of feature (or features). There are a number of viable choice for implementing or adopt an architecture for the code you are going to write. Why is important to know […]
docker swarm: communication problem
Having different version of docker running on different nodes, it happens to experiencing problems. Docker Swarm is a community project maintained in https://github.com/moby/moby github repository, it lack a number of features that are provided by kubernetes, but still someone is using this for experimental and bridge-to-kubernetes, because it is very simple to understand and manage.

Dive into (useless?) uncovered case of multistage dockerfile
Looking at the upstream documentation of Multi-stage builds there are some examples but this is missing: Ok, I mean, the example by itself is useless, but “it works”. Try: docker build -f Dockerfile -t copiedfrom-rust:v0.1 . Then: docker run -it copiedfrom-rust:v0.1 sh Real use case scenario Lets get serious now: why? Suppose you are inside […]
Rust: riferimenti e lifetime
(… oggi ho imparato che … premessa) Cosa vuol dire “lifetime” in Rust: A lifetime parameter does not allow you to choose how long a value lives, it only allows you to communicate to the compiler that two or more references are “related” to the same memory and are expected to share the same lifetime.
