Packer template for Alpine Linux on Hyper-V and Azure; GitHub – tomconte/packer-alpine-azure
Posted by jpluimers on 2020/10/05
Cool: a Packer template for Alpine Linux on Hyper-V and Azure: [WayBack] GitHub – tomconte/packer-alpine-azure
I like Alpine Linux because it is lightweight and the focus of being very secure, how popular it is in the Docker scene where it replaced Ubuntu and is now the standar package at [Archive.is/A2] library/alpine – Docker Hub and the motto [WayBack] Alpine Linux; Small. Simple. Secure. Alpine Linux is a security-oriented, lightweight Linux distribution based on musl libc and busybox.
Alpine is not yet out of of the box endorsed by Azure ([WayBack] Endorsed distributions of Linux | Microsoft Docs) so this is a very welcome tool.

Getting Started with Azure Event Grid Scenarios | Serverless360 Blog
Posted by jpluimers on 2020/07/30
For my link list, especially because how it categorises the various kinds of messages: [WayBack] Getting Started with Azure Event Grid Scenarios | Serverless360 Blog:
- messaging, which conveys an intent
- eventing, which conveys a fact
- series events, which represent a stream of events belonging together (like telemetry, logging, or streaming data)
- discrete events, which are independent, and report some type of state change
If you use Azure, these solutions then apply to the categories:
- messaging: Azure Event Bus
- series events: Azure Event Hub
- discrete events: Azure Event Grid

Danny Thorpe active on various Bitcoin reposiories – via: Best C# Article of October 2014 Nicolas Dorier – NBitcoin : Build Them All…
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/12/01
Via Best C# Article of October 2014 Nicolas Dorier – NBitcoin I learned that dthorpe (yes, that is indeed Danny Thorpe many people know him from the Delphi, C# and Google world) is active as Contributors to NicolasDorier/NBitcoin and on quite some Bitcoin related repositories.
When we met last summer, he was visiting the Bitcoin 2014 conference in Amsterdam. It is really good to see his activity, and I really hope his Opex.io venture (see his LinkedIn profile) will take off, as his ideas are sound.

Must Read: Penny Pinching in the Cloud: When do Azure Websites make sense? – Scott Hanselman
Posted by jpluimers on 2013/08/10
Scott Hanselman wrote a Must Read post on Penny Pinching in the Cloud: When do Azure Websites make sense?
The first comment says it all:
Nuts, maybe marketing should put out more stuff like this. I have looked at Azure in the past and learned more from this post than then reading through all the pages of pricing on the Azure site. Thanks
Be sure to also read the comments, for instance this one, as they cover some more in depth explanation.
