  • k3s

    Lightweight Kubernetes

  • K3S is a lightweight version of kubernetes made to run on smaller hardware. You can check it out here: https://k3s.io/ Currently the OS's runs from 64Gb micros SD cards. I will see how long they last before upgrading to something like NVME over USB. For storage on the docker containers I map NFS shares from my TrueNAS server as volumes.

  • RPi4

    Raspberry Pi 4 UEFI Firmware Images

  • The PoE fan not working in ESXi was a huge bummer for me. It's a shame it still hasn't been fixed.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • pi_cluster

    Raspberry pi cluster, slurm.

  • uhubctl

    uhubctl - USB hub per-port power control

  • If using power over ethernet or an addressable USB hub, each raspberry PI can be individually stopped and started based on workload to conserve power.
