So many questions about that server provisioning workflow :)
- mnsc 2y agoPretty straightforward with biceps.
- whartung 2y agoIs the hardware run on solar charged batteries, or does it recharge through plugging into coffee shop outlets. Is the network leeched from Starbucks, through a cell modem?
- codedokode 2y agoCell modem or being on someone's WiFi gives away your location though.
- kelsey98765431 2y agoyou misunderstand, the homeless man signs an agreement to be the authorized agent of contact that is able to tell the data center when authorized servers will arrive by mail and when they need to be sent to a different location. do not collocate servers in data centers run by homeless men, as there is less chance of fire suppression and climate control factors in their facilities (shopping carts/cardboard/tent cities). it may be fine for a startup, check your security model and postures.
- kelsey98765431 2y agoDRAC and luks, the homeless man enters a consultancy agreement to subcontract as a legal entity and is fairly compensated to use their services of being the authorized agent of your provisioning wing of your entity. as authorized agent, they simply agree with the datacenter that when an authorized physical server arrives it is added to a rack. when your entity structure needs to decommission a machine you use DRAC to destroy data at rest with a 70 hour dban series power it down and have the data center mail it to whoever buys it on ebay.
