Nebula Alternatives

Nebula reviews and mentions

• Libations: Tailscale on the Rocks
  5 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 5 Sep 2024

  Someone once said to me: At first I tried using Nebula , but provisioning new clients to the network turned out to be not so simple (https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/issues/479). There's a community maintained solution (https://github.com/cego/nebula-provisioner), but the docs are somewhat lackluster.

  Check out OpenZiti - https://openziti.io/. I work on it. Its OSS, can be self hosted, has its own CA/PKI with the ability to work with any external provider to replace primary or augment as secondary.

  As the endpoint consumes the identity to do authN/authZ to the overlay, no log in required (but it can be added if you want that additional protection).

  Going through all that trouble to use a proprietary solution? Rather recommend https://github.com/slackhq/nebula or something.

  Nebula - Peer-to-peer overlay network. Developed and used internally by Slack. Similar to Tailscale but completely open source. Doesn't use WireGuard. Written in Go.

• JIT WireGuard

  (I am a Nebula maintainer.) We recently merged support for gVisor-based services, although it's very new, and I don't know of much experimentation that's been done with it yet: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/pull/965

  Nebula, originally from Slack[0].

  Wireguard rightly gets a lot of attention, but Nebula is a really simple and easy to deploy mesh network that is often overlooked.

  It does lack a management GUI and that stuff is very much DIY.

• Nebula is Not the Fastest Mesh VPN (But neither are any of the others)

  Fair enough about the android mobile client... My use case only involves meshing linux appliances across various networks so we only need the nebula core binaries which are under MIT license

• Nebula is an open-source and free-to-use modern C++ game engine

  That's not at all confusing with Slack's Nebula. https://github.com/slackhq/nebula

• A word of caution about Tailscale
  12 projects | /r/selfhosted | 9 Dec 2023

  Sounds like a bunch of your pain points are just related to needing an online CA or ICA. But, looking through the Nebula docs I don't know that it supports things like CRL addresses where you could host the CRL, or OCSP responders. Someone got support for an OCSP responder but never submitted a PR with completed code: https://github.com/slackhq/nebula/issues/72

  Nebula is a scalable, cross-platform overlay networking tool focused on performance, simplicity, and security. This portable tool is equally adapted for linking a small number of computers or scaling to connect tens of thousands. It integrates encryption, security groups, certificates, and tunneling into a powerful, cohesive connectivity solution. Thanks for the recommendation go to jmeador42.
