Hi!
I'm a software engineer, post-proposal PhD candidate, homelabber, content creator, biker, guitar player, and a husband.
I have expertise in distributed systems, compilers and programming languages. I'm about to finish my PhD, and I worked for Canonical for over three years, and now I'm seeking exciting new opportunities. My work in Canonical focused on the distributed orchestration of enterprise-level cloud workloads. I was part of the Juju team, where I primarily used Golang and Python.
My PhD is in Computer Science at Indiana University, specializing in Programming Languages (PL), and minoring in Logic at the Department of Philosophy. My research focuses on investigating the run-time performance characteristics of implementing functional languages (e.g. Racket) on a meta-tracing JIT compilers. My advisor is Sam Tobin-Hochstadt.

Finally, the most common question people ask me in the US is "How do you say your name?". I'm from Turkey, and I understand "Caner" is a bit tricky to pronounce for English-speaking folks. No worries, you may pronounce it however it is easiest for you, I really don't mind. However, if you want to hear the way I pronounce my full name, here's a sound sample:

Manual Provisioning on AWS using Terraform Juju Provider
In this episode of “what kind of cool stuff we can do with the Terraform Juju provider,” we
explore how to manually provision machines from our existing setup into our Juju model using
the
Terraform Juju provider. For a primer on the Terraform provider itself, check out the latest
posts by some handsome fellas
here and
there.

Let’s see how you can actually do that with our recently added
support for manual provisioning on the
terraform-provider-juju with a bit of a tutorial style demo. Check out the rest

A generic way to tunnel into a Kubernetes cluster to communicate with a Juju controller with the Juju Terraform provider
A while ago @jnsgr introduced
the Juju terraform provider
and since then we all have been celebrating the versatility of Hashicorp’s
Terraform backed by our Juju almighty.
Recently our friends in the CommSys team raised an
interesting
question and asked, “Is it
impossible for the terraform juju provider to talk to a controller within a k8s cluster
without
utilizing the nice and useful proxy-config? How about the clusters that don’t provide that
proxy?”. Here in this post we demonstrate a simple way to show that it is indeed possible to
access to a controller in any type of k8s cluster with a bit of a support from the
environment.
The keyword is, the load-balancer.
