Not their chances specifically, but the party’s chances. Getting tired of the constant rug pulls.

8 senators threw in the towel conveniently after some good election wins, as to not harm their chances and dilute the base, to encourage a vote.

I guess I ended up more as a back-end administrator and engineer than I did for the front-end. I’ve heard a few folks say I’m less of a sysadmin/DevOps specialist but a Systems/Platform engineer. 🤷‍♂️

Why am I babbling about this? Idk, coffee kicked in and it just dawned on me that most of my experiences in IT/DevOps were not typical of most roles where you’re supporting a customer-facing application, but organization-supporting/mission critical application/s.

I have to say that so far, outside of data center operations for some niche services the orgs used, my primary focus has usually been around ERP and business systems, especially ones that are focused on Supply Chain and ERP.

This is an 11g architecture but it mostly carries into future versions.

This is honestly the work I really signed up to do and now that I’m finally getting away from the firefighting aspect of data center operations, it’s a bit refreshing because now I can focus on refining programming skills.

Needless to say I have their development stack about 45% of the way complete and it’s just a matter of porting legacy SVN repos to Gitlab. We’ll still need to build for both but we have a plan to build with Maven and Ant (legacy) until the legacy environment goes away.

Me being the DevSecOps guy, I get to make that happen. There’s a lot of technical debt and manual work that is needed to maintain this stack currently and having the change management done through a CI/CD pipeline will help immensely.

We run a custom Java EE application in a WebLogic domain backed by Oracle Database. My job at this point is migrating that to Linux from their legacy Solaris stack on-prem and working to refactor this stack as a cloud-native solution.

TLDR; I kind of understand my application stack a bit more at work. I wasn’t given much of a rundown on it but it’s basically another ERP stack.
