Infinit Joins Docker
- sshillo 10y agoHow does the performance of this compare to efs?
- ccrone 10y agoThe performance is very dependent on how you plan to use the FS. I would recommend joining us on Slack so we can chat directly and see how you'd like to use it: https://infinit.sh/#slack https://infinit.sh/#slack
- dethi 10y agoCongratulation guys! Good luck Akim :)
- ccrone 10y agoHi, member of the Infinit team here. We're very excited to be joining Docker! Their technology is great and the momentum behind them is really impressive. Feel free to ask questions, I'll be around a little this evening (based in Paris). Their post: https://blog.docker.com/2016/12/docker-acquires-infinit/ https://blog.docker.com/2016/12/docker-acquires-infinit/
- johnhenry 10y agoHow will the Infinit team and product benefit from Docker's acquisition? What sort of products and services do you plan to introduce that would have been more difficult to achieve prior? Thanks!
- mefyl 10y agoWe've been focusing more and more on containers lately, and we quickly discovered our technology was a great fit in the docker ecosytsem (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0m-XwCoxo0&list=PLkA60AVN3hh8oPas3cq2VA9xB7WazcIgs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0m-XwCoxo0&list=PLkA60AVN3h...). For us it means being able to focus on our preferred use case (Linux/backend) with more horsepower and less financial pressure.
- dvdhnt 10y agoCongratulations Infinit. Definitely a surprise until I read the background on your container work.
- bdcravens 10y ago"... quite an incredible journey." Reads almost as satire, given https://ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com/ https://ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com/
- dsjoerg 10y agoit's true, you can't use the phrase incredible journey anymore! unless you seek to make a knowing reference to your userbase.
- lazerwalker 10y agoI wonder if there have been any cases of consciously using the phrase "incredible journey" as a form of hidden message. When you want to consciously communicate to your users "realistically, everything's gonna be shut down 6 months or a year from now, with little notice", but are prohibited from doing anything but put on a smiling face.
- bdcravens 10y agoIndeed. Sometimes phrases are usurped, and that's just the way it is; the #1 rule of communication is knowing your audience. For instance, when I was younger, "hooking up" just meant making a connection or meeting up
- geodel 10y agoWhen Forces are joined journeys become incredible.
- Kiro 10y agoWhat's wrong with calling it what it is?

- tscs37 10y agoThis looks like a very exciting project, maybe if this is refined it could be used for prosumer/homeusers to scale their NAS storage?
- ccrone 10y agoIt would be suited to that, you can join us on our Slack channel if you have any questions: https://infinit.sh/#slack https://infinit.sh/#slack
- buddha 10y agoCongrats Julien & Baptiste and the cat from the Camping! Dan
- crb002 10y agoThe Achilles heel of Docker is not caching all artifacts. There needs to be a --cache-only option where it pulls packages to the host then copies them into the container. Right now you have to do a two container build where the first pulls packages, you copy them out for archival/caching, then copy them into a second container for the build. I guess another solution would be to have the base container pull the packages but not install anything. The child container would actually do the build then clean up.
