This is just initial version of the website, we are working on a new one.
Glad you find it interesting :)
If you have some questions feel free to ask.
sounds pretty similar motivation-wise to this. would be interested if linux as a host system is still needed. and if not: how is heterogenous hardware supported without virtualization?
Challenge is, ofc, supporting wide range of hardware options, but we don't intend to. We plan to support only modern x86_64 CPUs (arm is on the roadmap) and a select few NICs.
Current implementation is written to be hosted on public cloud, so we implement what is needed for that, but in the future we intend to allow self hosted version, but only on selected server hardware.
Now, if we have "big" server with like 256 cpus, etc. we can still split it many smaller "vms". Since the only code that runs with Hardware Manager is code we write, we can just add config options which pin execution to resources, eg. ram, we can just allow it to use from 4gb-8gb phys addr. Shared hardware like NIC is a bit trickier, but we do have some tricks up our sleeve which allow sharing.
why would you need to support virtual devices, if you are not in a virtualized environment?
All code we have can already run on bare-metal except some drivers, since most are only for virtualized devices.
Hopefuly that clears what we wanted to say.
If we implement eg nic driver for physical device then we can run bare-metal no host at all.
Btw, we fixed some whitelist issues and if you want to play around with it, database creation should work now (if not with existing account you can create new one)
That type of tech + redis being quite bad implementation allows those gains (up to 2000%, we even have commands showing ~2200%, mostly lists since they have very cache unfriendly implementation)
