 edef | i think if we want to do this, it needs to be soft-launched such that we can fall back on the known-good infra | 15:43:01 |
| edef | and we need to know the codebases and their perf characteristics very well | 15:43:22 |
| edef | realistically, whatever we pick, we will break something about it | 15:44:18 |
| edef | ie this is actual work, someone practically needs to be on call for the migration at least, etc | 15:44:22 |
 magic_rb | i mean we can shadow roll it out and tell some folks to use it, with a big "if it fails switch to cache.nixos.org" | 16:27:45 |
 hexa | frankly, some dumb selfhostable s3 should be enough | 16:33:43 |
| hexa | you push the nix-cache-info file to it and let hydra handle the rest | 16:34:06 |
| hexa | most of the features offered by niks and attic are also offered by the underlying s3 backend | 16:36:39 |
| hexa | we don't require the binary cache to handle signing either | 16:36:50 |
| hexa | a smart gc would be nice to have, but since we rebuild the whole thing every so often we can just cut off everything older than some interval | 16:37:53 |
| hexa | * a smart gc would be nice to have, but since we rebuild everything in nixpkgs every so often we can just cut off everything older than some interval | 16:38:08 |
| magic_rb | we should try something, we can always fall back to cache.nixos.org even on the DNS level if it fails | 16:47:35 |
| hexa | attic is basically unmaintained | 17:01:14 |
| magic_rb | Niks3 is what we want, it doesnt sit in front of S3, just manages GC | 17:05:41 |
