How to Mock Image Signing Cost in Python

Create a deterministic mock signing cost calculator that predicts resource usage for image signatures before real signing infrastructure is staged.

mock signing cost-model
Python
import math
import struct


def sign_image_cost(image_signature: bytes) -> int:
    """Deterministic mock signing cost based on image signature bytes."""
    if not image_signature:
        raise ValueError("Empty image signature")
    digest = 0
    for byte in image_signature:
        digest = (digest * 31 + byte) &…

How to Simulate Blue-Green Deployment Switch in Python

A mock Blue-Green deployment class that deploys new versions to an inactive environment, runs a health check, switches traffic, and supports rollback in Python.

deployment blue-green mock
Python
import random
import time

class BlueGreenDeployment:
    def __init__(self, initial_env="blue"):
        self.environments = {"blue": "v1.0", "green": "v1.0"}
        self.active_env = initial_env
        self.running = True

    def deploy_new_version(self, version, target_env):
        if target_env == self.active_…

Mock Kubernetes HPA CPU Scaling in Python

Python function that simulates CPU utilization and calculates desired replicas using the Kubernetes HPA formula.

kubernetes hpa autoscaling
Python
import random
import time


def simulate_cpu_utilization(target_utilization=50, samples=10):
    """Simulate CPU utilization readings for HPA mock."""
    utilizations = []
    for _ in range(samples):
        # Simulate fluctuating CPU with random noise around target
        current = target_utilization + random.unif…
