NixOS for the Impatient
- rpi nas
I also wipe my entire rootfs every boot with a zfs snapshot rollback[2] using the impermanence module[3] to keep specific stateful data one one of two datasets with regular snapshots: one is backed up with zfs send, the other is just for cache between reboots.
It took a little puzzling to get started, because I didn’t know about the impermanence module, so I built my own hacky solution. But I really love this setup. And the way I don’t have cruft to clean.
Also my backups are so much smaller now :’-)

Understanding nixos secrets management/aws configuration
Answering your broader question (secret management) colmena does that for me outside the Nix store. I also use git-crypt to store secrets in the repo. There are also more Nix-y alternatives like agenix.
- deploy-rs and colmena should combine efforts

The best solution for deploying flakes
There are 4 tools I'm taking into consideration right now, but every suggestion is welcome: 1. deploy-rs - I don't know anything about it, heard about it like a day or two ago 2. NixOps - the official one, I don't know what to think, but I have concerns about Flakes compatibility 3. morph - I understand this as "NixOps, but better", no more toughs. 4. colmena - seems to be pretty straightforward with quite nice docs

Toy highly-available Kubernetes cluster on NixOS
They shouldn't be, Colmena stringifies the keyFile values which is the same approach as NixOps uses to avoid this. Apparently I implemented that part myself, haha.

Big brain
I myself use colmena's apply-local. Anyway, totally relate to the meme. Using the same tool to manage your servers and workstations, and reusing stuff between them is amazing.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing nixos-ha-kubernetes and colmena you can also consider the following projects:
nixos-raspberry-pi-cluster - A user-guide to create a Raspberry Pi (3B+, 4) cluster under NixOS and managed by NixOps
deploy-rs - A simple multi-profile Nix-flake deploy tool.
