- drewg123 8y agoThe Netflix CDN. We run a slightly modified version of FreeBSD.

- peterwwillis 8y agoIs this just the kernel, or the OS as a whole? This is probably a redundant comment, but maintaining a fork of a vendored product kind of defeats the purpose of using the vendored product. If at all possible I would recommend either to use the vanilla release, or fork it once and stop integrating. If you were shipping your custom FreeBSD to customers, and they were relying on it being FreeBSD plus your changes, I can see integration providing significant value. But since it's for a CDN, it's probably only being used by your team.
