Musical parodies from SUSE about Kubernetes, Linus Torvalds and others

Last week, colleagues suddenly discovered the music video Kubernetes , which pleasantly surprised with its level. A brief “investigation” revealed that the SUSE Band is behind it - the SUSE music band, which is now part of Micro Focus International and widely known in the Open Source and the IT community in general for its long experience in developing a line of Linux distributions and related products.



In addition to the quality work and the presence of a decent SUSE Band track record (see below) , the group was impressed: the senior architect plays the drums, SUSE Enterprise sales consultant plays the guitar, and the senior sales engineer plays the bass (yes, no typo in the title of the position) . For the text of this and other songs are also employees of the company. What a great move: self-realization of the team in the hobby, and viral marketing, and the joy of the community! Therefore, this Friday we decided to dilute our technical publications with the presentation of several especially liked SUSE Band clips. Their lyrics are translated and in some places supplemented with explanatory links.

Kubernetes

Parody of the rock hit of 1997 - “ Barracuda ” of the American band Heart.

In IT stores today taxis flexibility (agile),
containers appear here as a way.

Orchestration is fun!
Automation for everyone, high availability that never falls!

SUSE CaaS Platform is the easiest way for K8s clusters today.
We help reduce, reduce, reduce, reduce overhead,
shut up in Kubernetes!

Platform services are usually not free,
and the iron was not simple and affordable.
Costs CapEx, OpEx began to decline -
Of course, thanks to open source!

Monolithic applications are not very elegant,
you need to switch developers to flexibility and speed ( mode 2 ),
you want to scale, scale, scale, scale really fast ...
Ooh, Kubernetes!

Collect it, collect that - all in containers,
close quickly with kubectl utilities,
microservices they rule!

Imagine: I can roll out updates,
scale and balance the load e of its stack
simple console utilities - this is very, very cool!

Monolithic applications are not very elegant,
you need to switch developers to flexibility and speed,
you need to scale, scale, scale, scale really fast ...
Ooh, Kubernetes!

Linus say

Parody of the song “ Mama Said ” by Lukas Graham (2015, pop / r & b).


(In the translation below, instead of the repeating chorus, "..." is used.)

Linus said that everything is open.
Linus said everything is under the GPL.
Everyone can use as they see fit.
And everything was okay!

The community decided that this is a good code.
People started rolling out their distros,
compiling C with your Makefiles,
because the code was good.

Remember how in 1991
He posted in the Minix Usenet group:
“It's just a hobby, nothing big will be here”, -
starting with bash and gcc.

It could be found on AT drives,
people liked it and they started distributing it,
with a multi-threaded file system
and the ability to run on the 386s.

...

The next task was a talisman.
Little penguin bit him at the zoo,
Larry Ewing painted for the public,
and the name Tux was given to him by James Hughes .

Richard Stallman founded GNU,
and Emacs and GCC,
licensed under copyleft - and that's true!
The code is free, as speech , for me and you.

...

I know which shell I have,
and my desktop is GNOME.
When I plunge into the jungle of the Internet,
Chrome is my browser.

When friends ask how the project manages to flourish
and how Linus supports it.
A generous lifelong dictator -
that's why I'm calm.
I said it was ok.
You know what Linus said?
Do you know what he told us?

...

Code together

Parody of the song “ Come Together ” by The Beatles (1969, rock).

Here comes the Chameleon.
He has stereoscopic vision,
he has open source code
he is a holy coder
he has a tail below the knees.
Administer his system -
easy peasy.

He has no lock-in ,
he has an openstack cloud,
it has linux for mainframes
he uses YaST and Kiwi.
He says, “I know Perl, you know Ruby;
the only thing i can tell you
you should be free! ”
Write the code together right now,
we are all free!

He is in production,
he has a huge uptime
he uses open standards
he is an elite hacker!
It has software defined storage ,
and judging by the top - yes! - you still have a lot of free RAM!
Write the code together right now,
we are all free!

He is on the mainframe,
he has the power of the desktop
He steers in the Top 500 !
He is a really bad mother,
He says: "1 and 1 = 17" *.
Must be cute -
he is so good with C.
Write the code together right now,
we are all free!

Write the code together, yes!
Write the code together, yes!

* The phrase “one and one is seventeen” beats the original “one and one and one is three” and is a reference to the hexadecimal number system (0x11).

I'm suse now hallelujah

Parody of the song “ Faith ” by Stevie Wonder and Ariana Grande (2016, contemporary R & B).


(In the translation below, instead of the repeating chorus, "..." is used.)

See the chameleon with his crazy tongue hanging out? Aha
He dances because he likes it!
Yes, he is a trend setter - we all want to be like him!
He is the king of Open Source, you'd better believe in HYIP!
It transforms data centers, holy innovations!
He adds open to your Open Source and now!

He has SUSE for me, baby, he now has SUSE for me!
And I will be with him, yes, it will be really good!
There is simply nothing better:
I'm green - hallelujah! - now I am SUSE.

Saw this chameleon and its uptime with five nines ?
With him, my infrastructure always serves applications.
It always brings innovation, allows you to scale up to exabyte.
He fulfilled his mission - my systems fly.
This friendly reptile is highly productive and applies patches in real time .
Just say the word to him and he will change you all his life.

...

My servers work every day and night.
His crazy dance doesn't go out of my head.
Tamed my containers, made the storage scalable.
I have always been interested in what a chameleon says?
I see excellent work and I am grateful to him every day!

...

More music!

The full playlist with all the SUSE Band musical pearls is here (and don't ask me how it is - besides the creativity of the great guys from SUSE - there were some regular video clips) . Have a great weekend!
