Azure Deployment Slots: Zero-Downtime Web App Deployments
A practical Azure App Service lab covering staging slots, slot swaps, autoscaling, and traffic testing.
What is the difference between locally redundant storage (LRS), zone-redundant storage (ZRS), and geo-redundant storage (GRS)?
LRS replicates data three times within a single datacenter; it protects against hardware failure but not a datacenter-level outage. ZRS replicates synchronously across three availability zones within one region, protecting against a single datacenter failure while keeping data within the region. GRS replicates asynchronously to a second, geographically distant region on top of LRS in the primary region, protecting against a regional disaster at the cost of the secondary copy lagging slightly behind (eventual, not synchronous, consistency) and being unreadable by default unless read access is explicitly enabled (RA-GRS).
What problem does policy-as-code solve that a manual infrastructure change review does not?
A manual review depends on a human noticing a specific misconfiguration, an open security group, an unencrypted storage bucket, in a plan diff that may span hundreds of resources, and that scrutiny has to be repeated consistently by every reviewer on every change. Policy-as-code encodes the same rule once as executable logic and runs it automatically against every plan, so an overly permissive security group is caught the same way on the hundredth change as the first, without depending on which reviewer happened to be paying attention that day.
What is the practical difference between ps -ef and ps aux, and why do they show different columns for the same processes?
`-ef` is UNIX-style syntax and `aux` is BSD-style syntax for the same underlying command, and they weren't designed as one consistent interface; mixing them can even be ambiguous depending on other options used. The manual is explicit that BSD-style options change the default output to include process state (STAT) and full command arguments (COMMAND) instead of just the executable name, and BSD-style selection also defaults to showing every process the invoking user owns across all terminals, while UNIX-style selection defaults to processes on the current terminal only. Neither is "more correct," they're two different historical option conventions layered onto the same command, which is why picking one and being consistent about it matters more than which one.
