About Us

rebash was created from real-world engineering experience — not theory, not documentation rewrites, and not tool hype.

After working extensively across DevOps, Cloud, CI/CD automation, Kubernetes, and DevSecOps, I’ve seen a repeating pattern:
most production problems are self-created — caused by defaults, rushed decisions, overengineering, or blindly following trends.

rebash exists to document what actually works in production, what fails silently, and what teams usually learn only after incidents.

Who I Am

I’m Shaik Khadar Basha, a DevOps and Cloud professional with hands-on experience building, operating, and fixing production systems.

Over the years, I’ve worked on:

  • Kubernetes clusters running real workloads
  • CI/CD pipelines used by multiple teams
  • Cloud platforms where cost, reliability, and security actually matter
  • DevSecOps pipelines integrating scanning, SBOMs, and compliance checks
  • Engineering workflows involving developers, QA, security, and management

I’ve worked closely with startups and fast-moving engineering teams, where mistakes are expensive and learning happens quickly.

Why rebash Exists

Modern engineering content has a problem.

Too much of it:

  • Repeats official documentation
  • Promotes tools without context
  • Encourages overengineering
  • Ignores operational cost and reliability

rebash takes a different approach.

Here, you’ll read about:

  • Why default Kubernetes and Helm configurations fail in production
  • How CI/CD pipelines become fragile — and how to keep them simple
  • Where DevSecOps tools help and where they slow teams down
  • How cloud costs grow silently and how to control them
  • Lessons learned from real incidents, not slide decks

If something is written on rebash, it’s because it has been seen, broken, fixed, or deliberately avoided in real systems.

What You’ll Find Here

On rebash, you’ll find content focused on:

  • DevOps & Kubernetes
    Production practices, Helm customization, and operational lessons
  • CI/CD & Automation
    Practical pipelines that scale without becoming unmanageable
  • DevSecOps
    Security tooling with real trade-offs, not checkbox compliance
  • Cloud Cost & Reliability
    Logging strategies, monitoring decisions, and cost optimization
  • Engineering Reality
    Opinions, mistakes, and lessons that teams usually learn the hard way

Who rebash Is For

rebash is for:

  • DevOps Engineers
  • Cloud & Platform Engineers
  • Engineering Managers
  • Teams running Kubernetes in production
  • Anyone who values simplicity, reliability, and clarity

If you’ve ever said:

“This worked in staging, but not in production”

You’re in the right place.

A Note on Philosophy

rebash is opinionated — intentionally.

Because:

  • Defaults are rarely production-ready
  • Tools don’t fix broken processes
  • Simplicity beats cleverness
  • Observability without cost awareness is dangerous
  • Security should enable teams, not block them
