We will look into how to use test-driven development in order to write code. I go through the process I use in order to create self-documenting code. The code should be able to validate itself and ensure that the thing you want it to handle it should handle.

We look into how to setup Sonatype Nexus in order to proxy downloads of debian packages or docker images. All by using the S3 interface of Ceph RadosGW. I will talk about the challanges I faced when setting up the RGW and pushing docker images. Not the best solution for my use-case but it might…
