 lillecarl | @kacper.uminski:matrix.org: Boot off iPXE, dd the image to disk, kexec, rebuild. You can have multiple cache servers and will easily be able to saturate your links with NGINX from *a few* cache servers. You can share the same signing key across them and use RR DNS for loadbalancing.
The torrent thing sounds like a solution to "immutable Debian" rather than content delivery | 13:46:19 |
| lillecarl | It'll be faster, no torrent startup time, only fetch what your node needs etc... :) | 13:50:16 |
 Kacper Uminski | Hmm, I will try this. Thank you! | 13:53:24 |
| Kacper Uminski | Just by the way, I am quite new to netbooting as a whole, so I do ask for leniency anytime I utter something unspeakably stupid. :) | 13:58:58 |
 markuskowa | Kacper Uminski: I run a small hpc cluster (20 nodes) at Fysikum, SU fully on NixOS. If you're interested i can show, how it is setup. | 15:42:05 |
| Kacper Uminski | That would be very cool! Do you have a git repo for it or something? | 15:47:29 |
| markuskowa | No, I did not publish the configuration for security reasons. | 15:49:23 |
| Kacper Uminski | Ah, yeah, that's reasonable. | 15:49:51 |
| lillecarl | https://github.com/aristanetworks/nix-serve-ng Arista Networks reimplementation of nix-serve in Haskell that's supposed to be superduperfast. Kacper Uminski 😄 | 21:37:35 |
| lillecarl | Can LIU subsidize you coming up to Stockholm to drink beer with us on the 30th? | 21:38:08 |
| Kacper Uminski | In reply to @lillecarl:matrix.org
Can LIU subsidize you coming up to Stockholm to drink beer with us on the 30th? No, sadly. I'm just a student, not an employee, and LiU is not very spend-happy right now. The only reason Lysator got to keep its server room was because we rode the AI bubble and promised to build an AI cluster. :( | 21:42:23 |

 adisbladis | That's the kind of thing I'm trying to accomplish with https://github.com/adisbladis/adios/ | 05:25:48 |
| lillecarl | Beware that COVID is running rampant right now in Stockholm guys! | 17:29:42 |
