PaulBSD December ‘23 updates (xmas)

Please apologies for the delay, few things to say with this post

FOSDEM 2024

I’m going to Brussels on February to the FOSDEM, it’s been a long time ago I’d want to be there to have fun and see something newer on open-source software / technologies / ham radio / hacking and some belgian beer ! It will be a pretty good time (I hope) to have talk to someone like me who enjoys new techs and going futher on them. My last travel was Portsmouth & London, and the upcoming after Belgium would take place in Germany, Hamburg & Berlin or so … to be continued

ipbl / ipblc

ipblc has been turned to websocket protocol to replace the old zmq protocol beeing used. Some stability improvements have been done in the multhreaded functional level of ipblc

SaltStack

paulbsd-salt has been improved with automation on new techs as such:

• clickhouse: relational database for analitics, salt state provides automation on building cluster with some nodes
• vector: observability data, data transform. This software injest datafrom many source and sinks, with a powerful transformation language (VRL) and lua bindings. This tool is written in Rust and have very good performance in handling data (logs / sql results / insights)
• kopia: backup tool to replace already used borg with deduplication features / compression and data storage efficiency, written in golang

All automation in paulbsd-salt is free as in free beer and all improvements are welcome

Christmas

I hope for you, your family and your friends to enjoy chrismas It’s a meeting time where no waste of time should’nt be done, so make it with pleasure !

Made with fun, again !
