RabbitMQ–Enable Management plugin

To simplify management and monitoring of your RabbitMQ Service Broker it is a good idea to install the management plugin(don’t expect anything fancy).

  • To install it, logon to the server where you installed RabbitMQ
  • Open a RabbitMQ command prompt

  • Enter the following command
    • rabbitmq-plugins enable rabbitmq_management
  • You’ll get the following log output

D:\Program Files\RabbitMQ Server\rabbitmq_server-3.6.12\sbin>rabbitmq-plugins en

able rabbitmq_management

The following plugins have been enabled:

  amqp_client

  cowlib

  cowboy

  rabbitmq_web_dispatch

  rabbitmq_management_agent

  rabbitmq_management

Applying plugin configuration to rabbit@SERVER01... started 6 plugins.

  • If you want to access the portal from outside the server, you have to configure a firewall rule that allows TCP traffic on port 15672.

  • Remark: Notice that when you try to access the management portal from outside the server using the default guest account, it will not work. This is a security feature that is enabled by default. To solve that, we’ll create another account, but that’s something we cover in another blog post.

.NET 8–Keyed/Named Services

A feature that a lot of IoC container libraries support but that was missing in the default DI container provided by Microsoft is the support for Keyed or Named Services. This feature allows you to register the same type multiple times using different names, allowing you to resolve a specific instance based on the circumstances. Although there is some controversy if supporting this feature is a good idea or not, it certainly can be handy. To support this feature a new interface IKeyedServiceProvider got introduced in .NET 8 providing 2 new methods on our ServiceProvider instance: object? GetKeyedService(Type serviceType, object? serviceKey); object GetRequiredKeyedService(Type serviceType, object? serviceKey); To use it, we need to register our service using one of the new extension methods: Resolving the service can be done either through the FromKeyedServices attribute: or by injecting the IKeyedServiceProvider interface and calling the GetRequiredKeyedServic...

Kubernetes–Limit your environmental impact

Reducing the carbon footprint and CO2 emission of our (cloud) workloads, is a responsibility of all of us. If you are running a Kubernetes cluster, have a look at Kube-Green . kube-green is a simple Kubernetes operator that automatically shuts down (some of) your pods when you don't need them. A single pod produces about 11 Kg CO2eq per year( here the calculation). Reason enough to give it a try! Installing kube-green in your cluster The easiest way to install the operator in your cluster is through kubectl. We first need to install a cert-manager: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/cert-manager/cert-manager/releases/download/v1.14.5/cert-manager.yaml Remark: Wait a minute before you continue as it can take some time before the cert-manager is up & running inside your cluster. Now we can install the kube-green operator: kubectl apply -f https://github.com/kube-green/kube-green/releases/latest/download/kube-green.yaml Now in the namespace where we want t...
