Last month, while migrating our Traefik instance to our new Nomad cluster, I also made the switch from Traefik EE to Traefik Proxy. The transition went smoothly, but I had to make a few minor adjustments along the way.

Last year, I covered how to set up and configure the IONOS Cloud LaaS offering. Now it is time to showcase how we collect logs from Nomad via FluentBit and send them to the IONOS Cloud LaaS.

We're excited to announce that our annual unKonf event is just around the corner! As a cornerstone of bitExpert since 2013, this unconference has become a beloved tradition, bringing together like-minded individuals to share knowledge and ideas on web and software development.

In May, Sylius released their new Test Application project, which defines a shared testing environment designed to simplify plugin development and testing.

Tideways helps you optimize application performance by continuously monitoring and analyzing it.

While doing a bit of spring cleanup in the various Nomad clusters we host for us and our customers, I wanted to delete a few dynamic host volumes that were no longer in use.

Mark your calendars for October 29th and 30th, as Bad Nauheim will be the place to be. My friends from programmier.bar are hosting the programmier.con - Web & AI Edition 2025 conference, and I'm excited to have been invited to give a talk about DDEV, a topic that was recently featured on the programmier.bar podcast.

For one of our customer projects, I was looking for an SFTP server. Although my Google search was unsuccessful, ChatGPT offered an interesting suggestion I had never heard of: SFTPGo.

A while ago, Nomad introduced the concept of Workload Identity to authenticate to Vault and obtain a Vault ACL token specific to the task. This way, Nomad jobs only have access to "their" own secrets, which provides an additional layer of security.

On the 19th of September, I will be speaking once again at the PHP Developer Day Conference organized by my friends of the PHP Usergroup Dresden.
