End-to-End Resiliency in a Hybrid Cloud World

Posted on by

Modern IT operations are undergoing upheaval, brought on by a perfect storm of internal and external forces. While traditional IT services once ran solely from central data centers designed for client/server architectures or mainframes, many IT departments are now turning to hybrid cloud—a blend of traditional and cloud services—for greater agility and flexibility to meet changing business requirements. These valuable resources also provide reliable platforms for running emerging technologies, such as cognitive computing, sophisticated analytics and a new generation of mobile applications. This approach is catching fire: the technology researcher IDC predicts that more than 80% of IT organizations will commit to hybrid architectures by 2017.

Survival Friendly Way to Respawn/Farm Shulkers

http://ift.tt/2dSSBmR

The issue with Shulker Shells/Boxes in 1.11 is that on large servers End Cities will be wiped clean of Shulkers. I propose a solution that, I feel, has a vanilla Minecraft vibe to it.

With this command block setup, Endermites can be turned into Shulkers. But shooting an Endermite that is under the effect of a Lingering Potion of Regeneration with a Spectral Arrow it will undergo "metamorphosis" and turn into a Shulker.

I feel that a larva type mob, such as the Endermite, would turn into a chrysalis type mob, such as the Shulker.

I am no genius with command block, so if you have a way to compact what I have made please do so! Just be sure to give credit, of course. :-]

Commands

1 – /testfor @e[type=endermite] {ActiveEffects:[{Id:24b}]}

2 – /testfor @e[type=endermite] {ActiveEffects:[{Id:10b}]}

3 – /execute @e[type=area_effect_cloud] ~ ~ ~ /scoreboard players tag @e[type=endermite,r=3,c=1,tag=!shell] add shell

4 – /execute @e[tag=shell,type=endermite] ~ ~ ~ /summon shulker ~ ~ ~ {Color:10}

5 – /tp @e[tag=shell,type=endermite] ~ -300 ~
