How to Build a Micro Frontend with Webpack's Module Federation Plugin

{% raw %}

Web applications can grow in size and complexity over time, making the addition of new features difficult. Micro Frontend architecture helps with scaling and bundle size and allows multiple teams to develop and deploy different parts of the app. Webpack 5 offers the Module Federation Plugin that lets you create multiple separate builds without dependencies between each other so they can be developed and deployed individually.

DevOps Best Practices:  Managing Repository Configuration

You can't just say "we do DevOps" anymore. If DevOps best practices aren't followed, teams inevitably waste the potential gains that DevOps practices enable, and infrastructure problems still aren't resolved.

With the continued success of DevOps and Infrastructure as Code(IaC) conversions, it's no wonder that IT teams across the world are adopting these new practices.

Ready to get started? The first DevOps best practice you need to know is the separation of application and operations repositories. Avoid common pitfalls by using Bitovi's recommended DevOps practices. You'll learn what an OpsRepo is and why and how to separate your application and operation logic into their own repositories.

What Happens Without Best Practices?

When your DevOps team doesn't invest in proper operation management practices, you end up with slow, unaware infrastructure provisioning, redundant resources eating up infrastructure budget, and a critical failure point where all the knowledge of the infrastructure and its configuration is held by just one or two people.

Managing application infrastructure can be frustrating and prone to error. Configuration, builds, tagging and deployments are just a few of the many vectors SREs need to consider to create successful CI/CD pipelines.

And if these resources are handled through logging on to a server or clicking buttons on a cloud console, aka  ClickOps, the complexity of configuration management and the likelihood for error grows.

How to Deploy a HeyEmoji Slack App to AWS using Terraform

Last Updated: December 07, 2022

HeyEmoji is a fantastic reward system teams can use to recognize each other's accomplishments, dedication, and hard work. Once you get it set up, you can mention a colleague's Slack username in any channel along with a pre-configured reward emoji - you can even include a short description of what they did that was so awesome it deserved a shoutout.

The best part? When you send an emoji to a colleague, they get emoji points, which can be tracked on a leaderboard. Competing to see who can be most helpful, considerate, or skilled at their jobs is a pretty fun way to make the day fly by. 

Want to get HeyEmoji on your own work Slack channel? This tutorial walks you through how to deploy the HeyEmoji Slack app to AWS using Terraform+Ansible so your team can enjoy Slack-generated kudos.
