MinIO Community Edition is no longer a safe default for new production systems. As of 2026, the public project status and distribution model changed enough that many teams now treat MinIO CE as end of life for serious workloads. If you are deciding whether to keep MinIO CE, fork it, or migrate, this guide gives you: a factual timeline of what changed the practical risk for operators a technical
What if your Kubernetes cluster simply refused to run unsigned images? I spent some time experimenting with enforcing image provenance in a small Kubernetes setup using MicroK8s. The idea was simple: Only container images with valid cryptographic signatures are allowed to run in the cluster. For this I used: GitLab CI/CD (build + signing pipeline) Cosign / Sigstore (image signing) Kyverno (admissi
Most teams I have worked with have one auth test in their suite. It looks like this: test('valid token verifies', () => { const token = signSync({ sub: 'user-1', aud: 'api://backend' }, secret); const result = verify(token, options); expect(result.valid).toBe(true); }); That test is fine. It is also a smoke test, not a regression suite. It catches the case where verification is completely b
The on-call alert at 02:14 said auth_5xx_rate spiked from 0.01 to 31.4. Not a deploy window. Not a traffic spike. Just thirty-one percent of authenticated requests failing for ~four minutes, then back to baseline. The cause was a JWKS rotation on the issuer side. New keys came in. Old keys went out. Caches in our service didn't refresh fast enough. Tokens signed with the new key were rejected beca
If you've been building with Supabase, you know their Storage API is fantastic for web apps. But sometimes, you just need your files on your local machine—whether for a manual backup, bulk editing, or migrating data. While you could write a script using the Supabase SDK, there is a much faster, "no-code" way to manage your files like a Pro: Cyberduck. Note: Cyberduck is an official Supabase partne
