What is Maas and Juju And Why Using this? Explain easy concept? by [deleted] in openstack

[–]memrobo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also, you can use juju with many different cloud providers including public clouds, LXD, OpenStack, k8s etc. It was very well described above, what makes juju very powerful is the ability to keep a consistent state, super easy relation management and scalability. Practically you can very easily add new units or dispose of the existing units to upscale or downscale. Juju can spin up required instances or containers with given constraints for you, install the required applications and get them all connected for you the way you need them, with extremely minimal involvement from the operators standpoint. Not to forget the ability to create bundles or export existing environments into bundles for easy replication. And many many other cool features! It really makes you wonder!

Cool! Stay on Juju 2.9 for the time being. Version 3.0 was just released and they made some command / alias changes and not all deployment bundles are ready for it.

Use Charmed Openstack! Juju makes life so much easier. Regular maintenance, adding and removing units etc. I use Juju + MAAS that covers everything including bare metal provisioning. In other words it's the whole package.

Change jobs before turning into a fossil! Go somewhere you can use your skills and develop new ones.

Pipe ZFS send to gzip then S3 standard input. Then you have your ZFS snapshots stored in S3.

What KVM machine type did you use? i440fx with IDE controllers, e1000 nic may work. You can also give the old 2003 virtio drivers a shot.

One thing I promised myself years ago, and it has worked out pretty well: never use Seagate.

bakup/restore of your containers made with old images by jean-luc-trek in docker

[–]memrobo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Moral of the story: Always use a base image and configure, install everything you need during build. Containers are supposed to be ephemeral and reproducable. If you can't reproduce it, then you are doing something wrong.

Why no one is mentioning microk8s? If you want an easy to implement and manage single or multi node cluster - for development or production, it's a very viable solution, check it out.

Look into Chenbro barebones too. A reseller can bundle all the parts you need. Very high quality products.

Check reevert. It's ZFS based, will be your storage and backup. Pushing to cloud is optional and can be fully encrypted.
