| schestowitz | <blockquote> | Sep 08 09:20 |
| schestowitz | <p>Running or operating applications requires several tasks throughout their lifecycle: scaling instances, checking the health, integrating with other applications, running backups, and applying updates – to name a few examples. It’s a time and labour-intensive process. To automate these tasks, developers can implement scripts for repeated execution. This is where the software operator comes in. Software | Sep 08 09:20 |
| schestowitz | operators are a design pattern, a proven and acknowledged approach by the software community. Software operators lift automation to a new level. They don’t only automate the deployment of application workloads, they also encode the expertise required to manage and operate them. In other words, they offer a secure and reliable way to operate applications.</p> | Sep 08 09:20 |
| schestowitz | <p>But suppose you start the development of your operator. Fundamental questions will naturally arise: Which points would you need to cover? What makes a good operator? What should you start working on first?</p> | Sep 08 09:20 |

| schestowitz | <blockquote> | Sep 08 09:24 |
| schestowitz | <p>One of the goals for the Hare programming language is to be able to write kernels, such as my Helios project. Kernels are complex beasts which exist in a somewhat unique problem space and have constraints that many userspace programs are not accustomed to. To illustrate this, I’m going to highlight a scenario where Hare’s low-level types and manual memory management approach shines to enable a difficult | Sep 08 09:24 |

| schestowitz | use-case.</p> | Sep 08 09:24 |
| schestowitz | <p>Helios is a micro-kernel. During system initialization, its job is to load the initial task into memory, prepare the initial set of kernel objects for its use, provide it with information about the system, then jump to userspace and fuck off until someone needs it again. I’m going to focus on the “providing information” step here.</p> | Sep 08 09:24 |
