I'm back with a new post today on keeping time in Linux, timespaces, network time protocol and how time synchronization became necessity during the advent of railways in the mid 1800s. We will look at how the Raillway mania of the 1840s paved way to time synchronization, how we synchronize time across devices using NTP and a peek into Linux clocks and time namespaces. Hope you enjoy this one !
Do share your experiences with debugging NTP issues and if you have any thoughts on Linux Timespaces and how you use it in production or know any tools which use it heavily.
From what I have learned, LitmusChaos and ChaosMesh have experiments which you can do to mess with the NTP and the kernel clocks, but I wasn't sure how useful people find it really. Do you perform any tests like these for your application ? Have time namespaces helped you in migrating containers in the recent past ?
