    A low power 1U Raspberry Pi cluster server for inexpensive colocation.

  • scalenode-cm4-baseboard

    Baseboard for Raspberry Pi 4 Compute Module optimized for clustering

  • I'm really hoping a blade like the Uptime.Lab concept [1] makes it to production, because you could cram 15-20 Compute Module 4s, with native NVMe boot, into a 1U chassis, for around 100 ARM cores, plus over 100 GB of RAM and whatever amount of SSD storage you can afford.

    I have been in contact with Ivan, the creator of the board, and I'm currently testing his beta '0.6' version. It really makes racking Pis for simple clusters easy, compared to trying to mash Pi 4s into a rack.

    There's also the Scalenode [2], but I haven't heard much about it since the first post to GitHub.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • tinypilot

    Use your Raspberry Pi as a browser-based KVM.

  • linux-m1

    Linux kernel source tree

  • inletsctl

    Create inlets servers on the top cloud platforms

  • A super cool project, but it's so easy to self-host a Raspberry Pi at home now with a public IP - even behind NAT and firewalls.

    I'm the creator of inlets (self-hosted tunnels - L4/L7)

    But Argo Tunnels from Cloudflare, and reverse SSH (for those with too much time on their hands) also work.

  • 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.
