Account Verification

by No_Abbreviations_429

3 days ago our AWS account was marked suspended without any notice . We're a startup, building our first product and being locked out of the account is painful right now. All the documents and verifications that were asked have been submitted. Still awaiting resolution. Has anyone else gone through this experience? submitted by /u/No_Abbreviations_429 [link] [comments]

Hi everyone! I have a phone interview for the AWS TAM position in a couple weeks, and I want to try my best to be as prepared as possible for it. Does anyone have any advice on how I could best do so, as Ill be honest Ive tried compiling resources to prepare myself but was a bit overwhelmed with some of the conflicting information on what to prepare for. I'm aware it will predominantly be technical with some behavioural questions, but how should I prepare exactly for the interview as a whole and with what resources? submitted by /u/CryingBananas23 [link] [comments]

I did a dumb exercise last week: sat down and wrote out every tool that touches a single deploy on my team, start to finish. Not “tools we have licenses for”, just the ones actually in the critical path of getting one change into production. Landed on 14. Source control. The CI runner. A separate container registry. An image scanner that runs after the registry push. A secrets manager. The Kubernetes dashboard we check for rollout status. A log aggregator. A separate APM/tracing tool, because the logs don't show latency well on their own. An alerting tool that is, confusingly, different from the paging tool. A DNS/cert dashboard. A cost/billing dashboard nobody opens until the invoice is a surprise. The ticketing system for the actual incident. And a chatops bot that glues some of this together, badly. None of these were wrong choices individually. Each one was probably the right call in isolation, at the time it got added. But nobody ever sat down and asked whether this thing talks to the other 13. It's less a stack and more a pile that happens to work most days. What's bugging me isn't the number itself. It's that almost nobody on the team could tell you the number without doing this exercise. We just live inside it. New hires take weeks just to learn where to look when something breaks, and that's before they've learned what any individual tool actually does. So, genuinely curious: if you did this exercise on your own team, what would your number be? And more interesting to me: which of your 10+ tools do you think is actually load-bearing, versus which one is just... there, inherited from a decision three engineers ago that nobody wants to be the one to rip out? Not fishing for “just consolidate everything into one platform” as the answer. I don't think that's automatically true either. Sometimes the sprawl is a symptom of real, unavoidable complexity, not laziness. More curious whether other teams' numbers look like mine, and whether anyone's actually fixed this in a way that stuck. submitted by /u/Complete_Sample_3149 [link] [comments]

Eventually this entire system needs to be torn down and rebuilt, but I need a "temporary" solution that will work for now until that is done. Existing Setup : Server: Windows Server 2019 It is not a DC, because no on-premises AD is being used. Running an ancient accounting program. Shared Folders, which must be Mapped as Network Drives on client machines running Windows. Users defined locally in Windows Server with permission to access Shared Folder. Client Machines: Windows 11 Pro Managed by InTune Login via Entra credentials. Manually mapping a Network Drive for each User to the Server, using their local User defined on the Server. I'd love to be able to Map the Network Drive using each user's Entra credentials, but to do this, the Windows Server would have to be aware of the Entra Users. I know there is no great way to synchronize users from Entra back to an on-premises AD DC, but that's not really what I need. I just need to be able to authenticate Shared Folder access with Entra credentials. Could the Windows Server act as a "pass-through" where it hands off authentication to an LDAP server? I've already set up the AzureAD-LDAP-Wrapper on my local Synology to allow for Entra-based authentication of the Synology's Shared Folders, and it's working well. Is there any way I could point the Windows Server to that same LDAP Wrapper, and then set permissions for the Shared Folders on the Windows Server based on those LDAP users? I'm thinking maybe this is what I need? Configure AD FS to authenticate users stored in LDAP directories in Windows Server 2016 or later Does anyone have any experience trying to do something this stupid? submitted by /u/ZippyDan [link] [comments]

Our department is finally getting a budget to replace the decade old seating in the server room. I personally use an Hbada X7 Prestige at home and the Alcantara material breathes surprisingly well. The purchasing guy wants to buy those cheap fake leather chairs off Amazon to save money. How do I convince him that synthetic leather is a terrible idea for a room that runs warm all day. submitted by /u/Robin4god [link] [comments]

Hi, I chose this provoking title on purpose. I am pretty fresh with a small amount of experience (5 years). Our current team lead left the company to look for a different opportunity for his last ten years before retiring. He’s been here for 20+ years and wanted a new experience before enjoying his retirement. Anyways, our CIO told me he sees potential in me and already gives me great challenging projects as he is confident in me. Obviously, I aspire to be the team lead I’ve ever wanted. But I have no idea what my proper duties are. We are a small ish company (250 employees) and I have 5 people under me. As I am pretty young (almost 30 yo), I find it difficult that the older guys will listen to me. Anyone has tips for me? I feel this is the right step into the direction I want to go in. I got a new contract with a good added amount of money and I see me being here for many more years. Sorry for the rambling, I’m a bit nervous. Our CIO will announce his decision in the next week. Thanks and have a great weekend! submitted by /u/DoubleShotStrong [link] [comments]

Rather than just disabling unattended-upgrades, I designed a patch management system around controlled promotion and governance. The approach uses: Aptly for internal package mirrors and immutable snapshots PostgreSQL to enforce promotion gates and maintain an audit trail Grafana for fleet health and CVE visibility Two-phase rollback to revert both the repository and client packages I wrote a detailed article covering the architecture, design decisions, and trade-offs: BLOG: 2ssk.medium.com/patch-management REPO: 2SSK/patchops I'm curious how others handle patch governance. Do you use internal mirrors, Landscape, Satellite, Foreman, Custom tooling, or something else? What has worked well (or poorly) in your environment?

We are sorry to let you know that our services in Finland will cease operations on the 1st of September 2026. This was not a decision we took lightly. Finland was a location we had hoped to expand. Over the past year, hardware acquisition costs have risen sharply, in some cases to almost eight times what they were, which made those plans unviable without raising our prices considerably. The location serves only a small share of our active services and had little room to grow, so it never received the attention we would have liked, but it did sustain itself. That changed when we were hit by two further large price increases. The location is no longer sustainable as it stands, and expansion is now impossible. For those reasons we have to retire it. We are retiring the location, not your service. Starting on the 21st of August we will begin migrating active services to our location in Frankfurt, Germany, and your service will continue under the same terms as today. We expect the full migration to take up to a week, but that is the window for the location as a whole. Your own service is only offline for as long as it takes to move that particular VM, not for the whole week. Given the number of servers involved and the volume of data, we cannot commit to an exact date and time for each service in advance. If you would like to agree on a specific migration window, please open a ticket. We can take scheduling requests up until the 21th of August. We handle the entire data migration for you. Your service will also come out of this better than it went in. It moves to much newer and more powerful hardware, and connectivity is upgraded from 1 Gbps to 10 Gbps. This comes at no additional cost and your recurring price stays the same. The one thing that changes on your side is the IP address of your service. Please remember to update any DNS records, firewall rules or allow lists that reference the current IP once your migration is complete. If your service currently runs on IPv4 NAT, this is a bigger change for the better. You will be given a dedicated IP address, which means the full port range becomes available to you and you no longer share ports with anyone else. SSH will then run on the standard port 22, so please update any saved connections, scripts or clients that still point at your old NAT port. We do realise this may not suit everyone, and that some of you chose this service specifically for its location in Finland. If Frankfurt does not work for you, you are welcome to cancel your subscription instead. Please open a ticket before the 21st of August so we can take your service out of the migration plan. If your subscription runs past the cutover date, say so in the same ticket and we will arrange a prorated refund for the remaining time. If we have not heard from you by the 21st of August, we will take that as your acceptance and your service will be migrated automatically. No action is needed on your part in that case.

My boss gave me three older workstations to use as a Proxmox cluster. Older in the sense that they are of the DDR3 era anyway he also gave me a UPS and bought two FS 16 port switches for me to set up in an MLAG configuration and learn from my home. Anyways, I was commenting on how I wish I had a PDU to remotely power on and off machines as sometimes like I had to get out of the house and I was working on a net boot project, which meant that if it didn’t work, I had to go home and physically restart the machine lol. Well, he went in the basement of his house and found these two older Minuteman 1600s with the SNMP card in both of them. I was able to find drivers, the Manuel, and even the SMP software for Windows thanks to the Internet archive/Wayback machine they function perfectly and so I’m just wondering, how great of a PDU is this? Is it even technically a PDU I currently have it plugged into my UPS, but since I’m terrified of ruining it, and I know search protectors can be an issue, I wanted to see if anyone who might be familiar with these older machines had any insights or things I should know or do in regards to configuring them or setting them up in a specific configuration We also just got to Pixel 10a’s to run GrapheneOS on as he’s pretty big on privacy and security. He bought them out right so they’re unlocked, but if there’s anything I should know in regards to setting that up, it would also be appreciated. I’m well familiar with flashing custom ROMa and such but things have changed since I was running cyanogen mod on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus lol. Thanks in advance to everyone in this community for making me feel welcome and reassuring me that I’m in the right place because some of that imposter syndrome has seriously lifted as I’ve begun to work with my first clients and projects that will actually be used in prod. submitted by /u/drake90001 [link] [comments]

Hey everyone, I recently published a technical walkthrough on the Google Cloud Blog around hardening IAM access using IAM Conditions . If you've ever struggled with binding built-in roles (like Project IAM Admin or MCP Tool User roles) to principals while restricting them to only subset of permissions or resources because of lack of support for resource-level bindings or API granularity, IAM conditions will fill that gap for you. Key patterns covered: Scoping projectIamAdmin : For example, instead of giving a builder service account (SA) unrestricted power to assign any role at deployment time, you can use the CEL function iam.googleapis.com/modifiedGrantsByRole to restrict the SA so it can only grant a predefined list of roles (e.g., BigQuery job user, Cloud Trace agent, Logging writer). Included both gcloud CLI and Terraform snippets. Restricting Model Context Protocol (MCP) Tools: The roles/mcp.toolUser role grants access to all MCP servers in a project. Using api.getAttribute('mcp.googleapis.com/tool.name', '') , you can constrain access down to specific tools (like mcp_bigquery-mcp_execute_sql_readonly ). Contextual & Time-Based Access: Brief examples of restricting execution windows using request.time (e.g., weekdays during business hours). Read the full post here: https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/developers-practitioners/generosity-under-conditions-hardening-google-cloud-access-management/ Curious how others here handle IAM admin restrictions or fine-grained MCP tool access in production? Let me know your thoughts or feedback! submitted by /u/m1nherz [link] [comments]

We are looking for a reliable dedicated server provider in the USA. We currently need three servers , with the possibility of ordering more later if the service remains stable. We have already tried FiberState, but unfortunately, we experienced the same issue with abuse complaints. Whenever an abuse report was received, the entire server was suspended immediately, even when the complaint was related to only one website. We need a provider that sends an abuse notification first and gives us reasonable time, preferably up to 12 hours, to investigate and resolve the issue instead of immediately suspending the entire server. Please note that these servers will never be used for email marketing, bulk mailing, or direct outbound email delivery . We use MailChannels for email sending, so the server IPs will not be used for mailing. Required specifications per server: USA location 24 - 32 Cores 128 GB RAM 4TB SSD/NVMe 1 Gbps port Budget: $120–$150 per server, per month Quantity required now: 3 servers We normally receive only one or two abuse complaints per month per server, and we always investigate and resolve them promptly. We are looking for a provider with a reasonable abuse-handling policy, stable network, and reliable long-term service. Please share your offers or recommendations.
