Gotta say that design is pretty cool looking. I like how they put a golf course on the perimeter!

Perhaps some projects are just for fun and not targeted at your specific needs?

cloud-init?

Exactly! I don't think most people understand how bad this move to ARM will be for developers. You are losing the ability to run/test/develop the vms and containers that are deployed in prod.

Seems like docker solves all those issues

> Docker on ARM Linux doesnt use x86 emulation, I'm not sure why Docker on ARM macOS would. macOS is not linux, so it will need some form of emulation/virtualization to run "Docker on ARM macOS"

Without the ability to run x86 vms, using a MacBook as a developer workstation would seem very limited

Same way it's done in the cloud. Immutable infra via virtual machine images. vSphere is the fabric that connects everything, packer builds the machine images, tf/govc deploys. To be honest though these days it's more for stan

Interesting and nice design on the hot deploy, lots of potential there. Congrats on shipping!

This is pretty neat. Since a new server is launched for every preview, it would be cool if the packaging used cloud-init vs docker-compose. If containers are a focus perhaps you could support k8s deployment/svc manifests and compose vi

That sounds like a disaster waiting to happen! Seems like a perfect use-case for Cluster API: https://cluster-api.sigs.k8s.io/user/quick-start.html Have one global "mgmt cluster" with several workload cluster

In a Kubernetes context can do this with Cluster API. I run my mgmt cluster in vSphere which spins up workload clusters in vSphere and AWS on demand. Works great! https://cluster-api.sigs.k8s.io/user/quick-start.html

VMware ESXi has a cool feature that allows you to create "fake" pmem drives from a percentage of your host memory. It's pretty fun to experiment with!

AKA a K8S cluster?

Do you think automation doesn't exist with on-prem? The vSphere terraform provider is very mature. https://www.terraform.io/docs/providers/vsphere/index.html You can build your own machine images with pa

k8s manifests are declarative though, not imperative config mgmt like the other tools.

The ultimate NUC for a vSphere lab is the "hades canyon" NUC8i7HVK. I have three of them in a vSAN cluster. * dual NVME drives for all NVME vSAN * dual nics work out of the box for ESXi * dual thunderbolt 3 ports to enable 10GbE v

After putting together various hackintoshes through the years I have to agree. The Mac mini is actually a really versatile machine and most compatable option for triple booting macOS, Windows, and Linux with zero hacks and native performanc

Thank you for the detailed reply, exactly what I was looking for and very interesting!

What is the barrier of entry for an individual or company to obtain a public ASN and theoretically announce a nefarious route? Would it come down to an irresponsible ISP blindly trusting the bad router? It does seem important for not putti

I think the benefit is not needing to grok, debug or re-invent every neckbeard's special shell script. Just declare your desired state and move on to other things.

Thanks for sharing! Interested to try this out

Perhaps i'm misunderstanding but this seems to convert a declarative workflow into an imperative one. Doesn't this seem backwards? Kubernetes manifests are declarative by design and for good reason, the controllers reconcile the s

Beautiful build! Those GMK caps look amazing.

Awesome stuff Ben! Could this be deployed via kind by passing the necessary mounts into a node, then mounting those mounts via hostPath in the pods?

Doesn't seem like it based on > Instead of pushing the new build to our servers using a sync script, each server pulls the build concurrently when signaled by a Consul key change.
