When David Heinemeier Hansson created Ruby on Rails (interview), he was guided by his experience with both PHP and Java. On the one hand, he didn’t like the way the verbosity and rigidness of Java made Java web frameworks complex and difficult to use, but appreciated their structural integrity. On the other hand, he loved the initial approachability of PHP, but was less fond of the quagmires that

Improving the performance and reliability of GitLab.com has always been a top priority for GitLab. While we continuously make iterative improvements to GitLab and our production architecture, we anticipate making a larger change to improve the scalability and reliability of GitLab.com: We are splitting our single PostgreSQL database into a main and a ci database. We believe this process, also know

Way back in April 2018, GitLab 10.7 introduced the Web IDE to the world and brought a delightful multi-file editor to the heart of the GitLab experience. Our goal was to make it easier for anyone and everyone to contribute, regardless of their development experience. Since its introduction, tens of millions of commits have been made from the Web IDE, and we've added features like Live Preview and

{::options parse_block_html="true" /} Update: This post does not live up to its original title We are building a better Heroku. It shows my own personal experience and reflects poorly on competitors. I am sorry about that. It should have emphasized the building part, we're just starting. The current 5 minute production app doesn't hold a candle to Heroku at the moment. It should have made it clear

Note: We have added release 13.12 to our release schedule. 13.12 is due to ship on 2021-05-22. This will cause the next major release 14.0 to ship in June instead of May as originally stated. The below content has been updated to reflect the new release date for 14.0 of 2021-06-22. Every Git repository has an initial or original branch, which is the first branch to be created when a new repository

If you've used a Web proxy server before, you're probably familiar with the environment variables http_proxy or HTTP_PROXY. You may be less familiar with no_proxy, which provides a way to exclude traffic destined to certain hosts from using the proxy. While HTTP is a well-defined standard, no standard exists for how clients should handle these variables. As a result, Web clients support these vari

HashiCorp announced a new project at HashiConf Digital called Waypoint. Hashicorp WaypointHashicorp Waypoint uses an HCL based configuration file to describe how to build, deploy, and release applications to various cloud platforms, ranging from Kubernetes to AWS to Google Cloud Run. Think of Waypoint as if Terraform and Vagrant came together to describe how to build, deploy, and release your appl

For about a year now, the infrastructure department has been working on migrating all services that run on GitLab.com to Kubernetes. The effort has not been without challenges, not only with moving services to Kubernetes but also managing a hybrid deployment during the transition. We have learned a number of lessons along the way that we will explore in this post. Since the very beginning of GitLa

We teamed up with OnGres to perform a major version upgrade of GitLab.com's main Postgres cluster from version 9.6 to 11 back in May 2020. We upgraded it during a maintenance window, and it all went according to plan. We unpack all that was involved – from planning, testing, and full process automation – to achieve a near-perfect execution of the PostgreSQL upgrade. The full operation was recorded

It’s been years in the making, but our journey to migrate our application servers from Unicorn to Puma is complete. With the Gitlab 12.9 release Puma was running on GitLab.com and now with 13.0 it is the default application server for everyone. This is the story about how we migrated from Unicorn to Puma and the results we’ve seen. A starting pointBoth Unicorn and Puma are web servers for Ruby on

The KDE community is #movingtogitlab! After announcing the original decision to migrate to GitLab in November 2019, KDE has officially completed phase one of their migration, and contributors have begun to use GitLab on a daily basis at invent.kde.org. Read on to learn more about KDE's migration story. About KDEKDE is an international community that creates open source software for desktops and mo

Sometimes, you can have too much of a good thing. That’s certainly true with Git flow, a well-known software development workflow that offers several options but can bog down users. We developed GitLab Flow as the solution to eliminate messy complexity and streamline the development process. GitLab Flow brings issue tracking to the Git workflow, simplifying the process and removing confusion. The

The Git project began nearly 15 years ago, on April 7, 2005, and is now the version control system of choice for developers. Yet, there are certain types of projects that often do not use Git, particularly projects that have many large binary files, such as video games. One reason projects with large binary files don't use Git is because, when a Git repository is cloned, Git will download every ve

We’ve set up several initiatives aimed at testing and improving the performance of GitLab, which is why the Quality team built a new tool to test GitLab's performance. Performance testing is an involved process and distinct from other testing disciplines. The strategies and tooling in this space are specialized and require dedicated resources to achieve results. When I joined the company and becam

UpdateAt GitLab we have an internal Red Team that dedicates time looking at the services and business partners we use to deliver GitLab products and services.

One of the more basic functions of the Prometheus query language is real-time aggregation of time series data. Andrew Newdigate, a distinguished engineer on the GitLab infrastructure team, hypothesized that Prometheus query language can also be used to detect anomalies in time series data. Andrew broke down the different ways Prometheus can be used for the attendees of Monitorama 2019. This blog p
