Uffizzi (https://uffizzi.com) is a new cloud platform that helps developers deploy and host applications with zero cloud infrastructure knowledge. Uffizzi is similar to Heroku in many ways, but it is built on top of GKE, which means that it has a very solid and scalable foundation. This blog post is a quick guide to deploying applications to Uffizzi.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍​‌‌‍​‌‍‌​​‌‍​​​‌‍‌‍​‍‌​‍​​‍‌​‍‌​‍​​‍‌​‌​​‍​​​​​​​‍‌​‍​​​‍​​‍‌‍‌‌​‍‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‍​​‍​​‍​‌‍‌‍​‍‌​​‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‌​‌​​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍​‌‌‍​‌‍‌​​‌‍​​​‌‍‌‍​‍‌​‍​​‍‌​‍‌​‍​​‍‌​‌​​‍​​​​​​​‍‌​‍​​​‍​​‍‌‍‌‌​‍‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‍​​‍​​‍​‌‍‌‍​‍‌​​‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‌​‌​​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌

Azure has been growing rapidly in the enterprise in recent years. But its app services offering, which is the most important service for developers, is still mediocre. Kubernetes is, in my opinion, the only viable alternative for running applications in Azure. This blogpost explains how I came to that conclusion after roughly 6 years of working with Azure.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​‍‌​‌​‍​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‍​​‌​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​​​​‌‍‌​​‍‌​‌​​‌‍​‍‌​​​​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌​‌‍‌‍‌​​‍‌​​​​‍​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‍​‌‍​‌​‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‌‍​​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​‍‌​‌​‍​​‌‌​​​​‌‌​​‍​​‌​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​​​​‌‍‌​​‍‌​‌​​‌‍​‍‌​​​​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌​‌‍‌‍‌​​‍‌​​​​‍​‌‍‌​​‌‌​‍​‌‍​‌​‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‌‍​​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌

Teslas are the most technologically advanced cars on the market right now. One interesting feature is called Sentry Mode, it's a built-in security system that uses 4 (out of 8) cameras to continuously monitoring the surroundings of the car. Unfortunately, there is no way to watch the videos remotely, they have to be stored on a USB drive that’s plugged into the car. That’s very impractical, it takes only a few days before there are too many videos and you end up just ignoring them. In this post, I want to describe how I’m trying to use video content analysis to determine if there is a person on any video and then send a notification to the owner. I’m using Azure for archiving the videos and AWS to process them. ​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍‌‌​​‍​​‌​‌‌‍‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‍​‍‌‌‍​‌​‌​‌‍‌‍​​‍‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌‌‍​‌​‌​​​​​​​‍‌​‌​​​‍​‌​​​​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‍​​​​‍‌​​​‌​​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍‌‌​​‍​​‌​‌‌‍‌‌​‌​​‌​​​‍​‍‌‌‍​‌​‌​‌‍‌‍​​‍‌​‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​‍‌‌‍​‌​‌​​​​​​​‍‌​‌​​​‍​‌​​​​‍‌​‌​‌​‌‍​​​​‍‌​​​‌​​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌
