IT СЛЕНГ
Main summary
Key takeaways
Main ideas / concepts covered
The video is a rapid “IT slang” glossary explaining common DevOps/IT terms used by developers, DevOps engineers, and QA professionals. The theme is that these roles rely on shorthand language for everyday work such as:
- running applications
- deploying code
- managing environments
- handling permissions and access
Key terminology (organized and outlined)
Environments, infrastructure, and deployment
-
Machine
- Virtual machine (VM): a virtual part of a physical server where an application runs.
- A single physical server can host multiple VMs (examples mentioned: 2, 3, up to 10, depending on capacity).
-
NODA / Node
- A separate component in a larger system/network that performs its own part of the work.
- The intuition is compared to “a knot”.
-
Stand
- A sandbox/isolated environment where an application runs.
- Dev stand: runs the developer version.
- Production stand: runs the version used by real users.
-
Stag/Stage
- The term contrasts two meanings:
- Stagnation meaning (pre-production testing): an environment for final testing before production.
- Pipeline stage meaning: a step in the delivery pipeline.
- The term contrasts two meanings:
-
Platform
- Explained as an “assembly line / conveyor belt.”
- Represents the set of steps code goes through from being written → being deployed → landing on the production stand.
-
Deploy / Ploy (Deploy)
- The procedure for delivering code to an environment (dev/test/prod/prototype, etc.).
- The video emphasizes that you deploy to all these places.
Code collaboration (Git/GitLab workflow)
-
PR / Pull Request
- A proposal to merge branches (e.g., a feature branch into
develop).
- A proposal to merge branches (e.g., a feature branch into
-
MR / “same merch request” (GitLab wording)
- Same idea as a pull request, but in GitLab: a Merge Request.
Databases and services accounts
-
PostgreSQL
- Mentioned directly (appears as “PastgreSQL” in the transcript, intended: PostgreSQL database).
-
Tool (Technical account)
- A service account used by systems/services to interact automatically.
-
User account
- A regular account for human users (contrasted with technical/service accounts).
Identity, access management
-
Hell (intended: Active Directory)
- Active Directory: a Windows system that manages users and permissions/access.
-
Domain account
- Needed to access company corporate resources.
- Often used to access systems like “file/confluence-like services” (examples mentioned as “fats and confluences”).
Credentials and reusable code
-
Creds
- Short for logins/passwords (credentials).
-
Library / “ready-made set of code”
- A collection of functions/classes/modules someone already wrote.
- Used as a convenient building kit to assemble solutions.
Development/build concepts
-
Architecture → “archi”
- A shorthand: architecture is sometimes truncated to archi by specialists.
-
Instance
- A live copy of a program currently running on a server or on a user’s computer.
-
Host
- A server or a user’s computer (the place where the instance runs).
-
Debugging
- Not just reading code, but purposefully searching for errors/glitches/odd behavior to fix the program.
-
Values
- Values inside variables (numbers, strings/text, boolean flags, etc.).
- Briefly noted as also appearing in a Kubernetes context (with a “hill” mention, implying a related term).
Web services / networking
-
Webmorda
- A web UI for administering a service via a browser (buttons/settings to control systems).
- Compared to configuring a router through a website interface.
-
Endpoint
- A specific address another program calls to send/receive data.
-
Gateway
- A component enabling services to exchange data without needing to understand each other’s internal structures.
-
AI (as mentioned in “over an AI”)
- The subtitle implies “data over a network/interface,” but the main intent here is network communication (in the context of endpoints).
Automation and workflow
-
Job / Joba / Jaba
- A separate task run by an automation system.
- Examples: build, clean database, send newsletter, etc.
- Usually configured in job lists/configuration and executed automatically or on a schedule without human intervention.
-
Flow
- The team’s development workflow.
- The video points viewers to additional info via Telegram.
Speakers / sources featured
- No specific individual speakers are named in the subtitles.
