Graceful-Shutdown

Part 5: Prometheus Graceful Shutdown Part 1: Signals and Linux Part 2: Containers and signals Part 3: Graceful shutdown of K8S pods Part 4: Celery Graceful Shutdown Part 5: Prometheus Graceful Shutdown [you’re here] Part 6: Other frameworks and libraries [WIP] AI usage disclaimer Disclaimer: this article is very experimental in the way that it relies heavily on the AI agent to do the heavy-lifting of data extraction, following the article structure and proof-reading as the articles are getting pretty procedural. Here’s the prompt. It would require tinkering around and verification, as it tends to provide wrong code links sometimes and building the narrative structure that does not make a lot of sense for the human reader. ...

Part 4: Celery Graceful Shutdown Process Part 1: Signals and Linux Part 2: Containers and signals Part 3: Graceful shutdown of K8S pods Part 4: Celery Graceful Shutdown [you’re here] Part 5: Prometheus Graceful Shutdown Part 6: Other frameworks and libraries [WIP] Change of the approach We’ve had enough generic theory in previous 3 articles, covering the kernel, application, container runtimes and high-level abstractions like K8S, so what’s next? I suggest to change the flow of the articles to overview of popular backend systems and how they handle graceful shutdowns, so that we have a perspective of the topic in the wild. ...

[Disclaimer] I struggled a lot with writing this article, as K8S itself is way too big to grasp quickly and I had to make a lot of compromises on the structure and details for it all to make some sense. The article may feel dragged in some places, jumping from topic to topic yet I had to complete it, so sorry not sorry. GenAI has been used to generate the diagrams from the Kubernetes, Container-D and RunC codebase. ...
