Awscli Version 2 On Alpine Linux


Answer :

Actually with a bit a effort it is possible to run AWS CLI v2 on Alpine:

FROM alpine:3.11  ENV GLIBC_VER=2.31-r0  # install glibc compatibility for alpine RUN apk --no-cache add \         binutils \         curl \     && curl -sL https://alpine-pkgs.sgerrand.com/sgerrand.rsa.pub -o /etc/apk/keys/sgerrand.rsa.pub \     && curl -sLO https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/releases/download/${GLIBC_VER}/glibc-${GLIBC_VER}.apk \     && curl -sLO https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/releases/download/${GLIBC_VER}/glibc-bin-${GLIBC_VER}.apk \     && curl -sLO https://github.com/sgerrand/alpine-pkg-glibc/releases/download/${GLIBC_VER}/glibc-i18n-${GLIBC_VER}.apk \     && apk add --no-cache \         glibc-${GLIBC_VER}.apk \         glibc-bin-${GLIBC_VER}.apk \         glibc-i18n-${GLIBC_VER}.apk \     && /usr/glibc-compat/bin/localedef -i en_US -f UTF-8 en_US.UTF-8 \     && curl -sL https://awscli.amazonaws.com/awscli-exe-linux-x86_64.zip -o awscliv2.zip \     && unzip awscliv2.zip \     && aws/install \     && rm -rf \         awscliv2.zip \         aws \         /usr/local/aws-cli/v2/*/dist/aws_completer \         /usr/local/aws-cli/v2/*/dist/awscli/data/ac.index \         /usr/local/aws-cli/v2/*/dist/awscli/examples \         glibc-*.apk \     && apk --no-cache del \         binutils \         curl \     && rm -rf /var/cache/apk/*

The above Dockerfile will install the 'glibc' package for Alpine, so that the AWS CLI will be able to find the required shared libraries. The Dockerfile also removes some stuff we probably don't need, such as auto-complete and examples. If you need some other specific packages you can of course add them to the Dockerfile.


AWS CLI version 2 is compiled against glibc, the GNU Project's implementation of the C standard library. Most common Linux distributions use glibc, but Alpine Linux is instead based on musl libc.

Because binaries compiled against glibc aren't compatible with musl, AWS CLI version 2 doesn't run on Alpine Linux.

The best way to run AWS CLI version 2 on Alpine Linux would be for Amazon to provide one of the following:

  • Binaries compiled against musl
  • A source distribution, which can be compiled on Alpine Linux
  • An official AWS CLI Docker image based on Alpine Linux

Are Regular VACUUM ANALYZE Still Recommended Under 9.1?

Answer : VACUUM is only needed on updated or deleted rows in non-temporary tables. Obviously you're doing lots of INSERTs but it's not obvious from the description that you're also doing lots of UPDATEs or DELETEs. These operations can be tracked with the pg_stat_all_tables view, specifically the n_tup_upd and n_tup_del columns. Also, even more to the point, there is a n_dead_tup column that tells, per table, how much rows need to be vacuumed. (see Monitoring statistics in the doc for functions and views related to statistics gathering). A possible strategy in your case would be to suppress the scheduled VACUUM, keeping an eye on this view and checking on which tables the n_dead_tup is going up significantly. Then apply the aggressive VACUUM to these tables only. This will be a win if there are large tables whose rows never get deleted nor updated and the aggressive VACUUM is really necessary only on smaller tables. But keep running the ANALYZE for the optimiz

Can Feynman Diagrams Be Used To Represent Any Perturbation Theory?

Answer : Diagram machinery works also for perturbation theory in classical statistical mechanics and classical field theories. Generally, various kinds of diagrams constitute a pictorial way of talking about tensor products and their contractions while hiding the multi-linear algebra from the layman. In the simplest case, vertices (or blobs) represent vectors, matrices, tensors; vertices have ingoing and/or outgoing ports; ingoing ports denote (contravariant) ro indices; outgoing ports denote (covariant) co indices; directed arcs between blobs give a pair of equal indices summed over; different base spaces ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ different arc types; symmetric tensors ⇔ \Leftrightarrow ⇔ undirected diagrams; no labels are needed for internal lines. In many cases, the directed arcs are decorated (as thin, thick, broken,wavy, curly lines), each decoration indicating the presence of a so-called propagator, a function of its label to use as a weight in the sum, which may beco
