or to MNX Triton or vanilla SmartOS, they're the greatest.
- MrDrMcCoy 3y agoHow is MNX Triton, a public cloud offering, an alternative to an on-prem, private cloud solution? I'm sure that SmartOS is great, but being based on Illumos, I'd be hesitant to switch. Illumos doesn't have the most expansive community or hardware support as far as I know.
- NexRebular 3y ago> How is MNX Triton, a public cloud offering, an alternative to an on-prem, private cloud solution? By doing on-prem private installation of it [0]. Support contract is not necessary. We run illumos on HPe hardware from Gen6 to Gen10 and there are no issues. Even have GPU compute going via passthrough to ubuntu bhyve HVM.

- MrDrMcCoy 3y agoNow this is very interesting and I'm excited to read up on it. Thanks for the link!
- unethical_ban 3y agoHow does it compare to Proxmox, if you don't mind? Both seem to have distributed VM and storage and VM/CT support, software network support... if Triton has better SDN I may be interested in it. I remember taking a quick hobbyist look at JoyentOS or something like that about five years ago, but I thought the project died... I'm shocked to hear it's still alive.
