New Open-Source Tool Spotlight 🚨🚨🚨

Kubernetes History Inspector (KHI) is an agentless log viewer built for visualizing Kubernetes audit logs. Its timeline-based log analysis and resource relationship diagrams simplify cluster troubleshooting—no complex setups or commands required. #Kubernetes #Observability

Is Node.js the future of backend development, or just a beautifully wrapped grenade?

Lately, I see more and more backend systems, yes, even monoliths, built entirely in Node.js, sometimes with server-side rendering layered on top. These are not toy projects. These are services touching sensitive PII data, sometimes in regulated industries.

When I first used Node.js years ago, I remember:
• Security concepts were… let’s say aspirational.
• Licensing hell due to questionable npm dependencies.
• Tests were flaky, with mocking turning into dark rituals.
• Behavior of libraries changed weekly like socks, but more dangerous.
• Internet required to run a “local” build. How comforting.

Even with TypeScript, it all melts back into JavaScript at runtime, a language so flexible it can hang itself.

Sure, SSR and monoliths can simplify architecture. But they also widen the attack surface, especially when:
• The backend is non-compiled.
• Every endpoint is a potential open door.
• The system needs Node + a fleet of dependencies + a container + prayer just to run.

Compare that to a compiled, stateless binary that:
• Runs in a scratch container.
• Requires zero runtime dependencies.
• Has encryption at rest, in transit, and ideally per-user.
• Can be observed, scaled, audited, stateless and destroyed with precision.

I’ve shipped frontends that are static, CDN-delivered, secure by design, and light enough to fit on a floppy disk. By running them with Node, I’m loading gigabytes of unknown tooling to render “Hello, user”.

So I wonder:
Is this the future? Or am I just… old?

Are we replacing mature, scalable architectures with serverless spaghetti and 12-factor mayhem because “it works on Vercel”?

Tell me how you build secure, observable, compliant systems in Node.js.
Genuinely curious.
Mildly terrified and maybe old.

Come diceva quel vecchio slogan, “la potenza è nulla senza il controllo”. 🏎️

Il 23 maggio alla #conferenza #ITDevCon 2025 Spring Edition parleremo di #observability introducendo #Prometheus e il suo client per #Delphi. Vedremo come integrare #metriche, creare #alert, in generale come ottenere una visione chiara di come si stanno comportando applicazioni e servizi in produzione. 🕵️

Uno sguardo veloce alla parte teorica, con esempi e consigli pratici. 🧪

Man Prometheus is a pain to recover once its data store is in any way out of shape. Did NOT help that it was buried inside Kubernetes inside a PVC.

Thankfully it was only Dev environment today but if this ever pages on Prod we're losing data as it stands.

I'll write something up for a run book but eesh.
