DSLA Protocol | Paris Berlin Tokyo Dubai | DevOps / SRE / DevSecOps | Remote | Full Time

Our team is opening up multiple network engineer positions to further accelerate the development of DSLA Protocol, our Third Party Risk Management (TPRM) solution for developers and infrastructure operators.

Available on a growing number of blockchain networks, DSLA Protocol is a framework that enables anyone to design, roll out and execute peer-to-peer risk management strategies, based on historical application and network performance analytics.

In practice, DSLA Protocol connects stakeholders that want to underwrite risk, with stakeholders that want to hedge against risk, using zero-sum performance prediction markets.

As a DSLA Protocol core contributor, you will be responsible for the continuous improvement of the infrastructure supporting the protocol, our oracles and the other components of our technical stack.

We are looking for ambitious network engineers operating in a full DevOps capacity, with hands-on experience with EVM-compatible and non-EVM networks, Chainlink, Application & Network Performance Monitoring (APM/NPM) GCP, Kubernetes, Hardhat, Ethers.js and Typescript.

- SRE / DevOps: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ajYo9aBzhrt-srrnAdiPiMZ1...

Keywords: Kubernetes, GCP, AWS, SRE, SLA.

DSLA Protocol is a risk management framework that enables infrastructure operators and developers to reduce their users' exposure to service delays, interruptions and financial losses, using self-executing service level agreements (SLA), bonus-malus insurance policies, and crowdfunded liquidity pools.

DSLA Protocol’s flagship use case is to offset the financial losses of Proof-of-Stake delegators and DeFi users, while incentivizing the connectivity, performance and availability of staking pool operators and DeFi service providers.

The Stacktical Blockchain engineer is responsible for the Protocol' Smart Contract efforts to build the current and future products of the platform.

We are looking for a skilled Blockchain Engineer with hands on experience deploying Smart Contracts that are well documented, tested and reviewed while communicating with dApp maintainers(https://dsla.protocol), community and partners.

This is the opportunity to enjoy working in a true Decentralized team in the booming DeFi industry. You will provide quality matching the institutional adoption we are facing.

unscheduled outages are always painful and people will always call, I agree. But instant compensation is doing a better job at damage control that a status page. Keeping customer satisfaction even in bad situation is key in a world of high availability expectations. And with a distributed, non partisan metric sourcing about the availability of an API, it's not possible for a Service Provider to lie anymore.

Feel free to give that whitepaper a look

TLDR: Because Smart Contracts on the blockchain are the right tool for Secure Digital Agreements.

Paperweight contracts are irrelevant in a world of data

* A Smart Contract is cheaper to publish that the stack of paper handled by lawyers.

* Code is cheap to iterate from whereas traditional SLA are expensive/slow to renegociate. Over time, SLAs drive behaviors that are focused on delivering a minimum level of service at minimum cost to the provider.

* A Smart Contract is a code you can trust, understand and expect to behave instantly compared to the traditional SLM.

* A Smart Contract is immutable. More about the benefit of Smart Contract over paper/digital agreements: https://www.forbes.com/sites/cognitiveworld/2019/03/10/rise-...

Why not a python script? I don't trust the guy that handle that script. Blockchain is very good at bringing trust.

I hope I answered your question

A week to fill a DB and 70 m3x-large is way too expensive to find out how far you can scale. Me and my friend built stacktical (https://www.stacktical.com) so that with very minimal load testing it's possible to understand and share how many concurrent users your current and upcoming application infrastructure can handle. Testers are welcome

I think we should stop falling into the marketing greed of Docker to manage container at large scale. They want to get a grip of the corporate market and catch up with kubernetes at the cost of their containerization quality. Unfortunately with their current strategy they are loosing credibility as a containerization tool AND as the container orchestration tool they try to become. Using it solely as a containerization tool with k8s/ecs for the heavy lifting is the relevant way to go as for today IMO.

Great post. I wish more companies would be equally transparent about their infrastructure details. I think the lack of cost optimization is underrated though.

The problem is as you scale the lack of optimization scales with it. Ultimately a late optimization and migration affect more users, complexity etc..

I can't wait for the next post to hear about the details of the choices that have been made.

Ditching tmux 10 years ago

I share the same feeling (as for the splitting feature alone). I also love the minimalism and the fact that there is no screen estate waste(1 windows takes 100% of the screen, 2 takes 50% each, etc...).

Since I switched to i3 I completely stopped to use tmux. /r/unixporn is full of i3 screenshot and config to learn from i would encourage new users to look at it.

I totally agree that fallback is the way to go. Unfortunately I couldn't get powerline glyphs to work on my archlinux box, lost patience and just grabbed the droid patched fonts. I would say that it adds portability, consistency and makes it easier to have glyphs working straight.

So what will happen if his next game hit the top ten again? Shut it down? Why not put his game for charity or just stop releasing games if he really care about how his game affects the players?
