# It works! (TM)
|

|

![](recycledcloud-text.png)
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{center}
|
||||
We even have a website! \href{https://recycled.cloud/}{https://recycled.cloud/}
|
||||
\end{center}
|
||||
|
||||
# High-Level Overview
|
||||
|
||||
* 3 locations - **Yes, it's overkill**.
|
||||
* LNTH and LSNE are production capable.
|
||||
* LNTH has **power and network redundancy**.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Networking** + **Distributed Storage** + QEMU/KVM **VMs**.
|
||||
* Humans: 1-1.5 people Summer, ~0.5 'til last week, ~1.25 these days.
|
||||
|
||||
# Public-ish services
|
||||
|
||||
* Web hosting: Static + Wordpress - **unmanaged**.
|
||||
* Storage / backups - **unmanaged**.
|
||||
* KVM Virtual Machine Hosting - **unmanaged**.
|
||||
|
||||
**e-Durable is our biggest client by far. Bottleneck is user support.**
|
||||
|
||||
* No management interface or billing pipeline so far.
|
||||
- Billing is hard. We'll leverage Odoo.
|
||||
|
||||
# A bit of History
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{center}
|
||||
\includegraphics{ungleich-logo-black.png}
|
||||
\end{center}
|
||||
|
||||
* I arrived around June last year (from ungleich).
|
||||
* The 3 locations were already in the pipe.
|
||||
* JD and Olivier have been playing with **OpenStack** (and JuJu + MAAS) for a
|
||||
few months. It was **massively overkill** (and broken).
|
||||
* We tried to reuse some parts, but **had to drop everything and start from
|
||||
scratch**.
|
||||
* Only low-end hardware around.
|
||||
|
||||
# System Administration 101
|
||||
|
||||
* Setting something up is easy, **keeping it running is not**.
|
||||
* **Complexity** is your worst enemy.
|
||||
|
||||
# Technial Stack - General guidelines
|
||||
|
||||
* **KISS**: Keep things as simple as possible.
|
||||
* Alpine Linux and Debian GNU/Linux.
|
||||
* Document things in the Wiki ([wiki.recycled.cloud](https://wiki.recycled.cloud)).
|
||||
* Use configuration management ([cdist](https://cdi.st)).
|
||||
* Obviously **FOSS**-only... non-free software is a PITA!
|
||||
|
||||
# Technical Stack - Networking
|
||||
|
||||
* We are registered at [RIPE](https://ripe.net): **AS208948**, x1 IPv4 **/22**, x1 IPv6 **/29**.
|
||||
* External BGP peering in every location, OSPF internally.
|
||||
* Two edge routers per location, for redundancy.
|
||||
* **IPv6-first** - IPv4 is **LEGACY** (and painful)!
|
||||
|
||||
# Technical Stack - Core Infrastructure
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{center}
|

\includegraphics{location.png}
|
||||
\end{center}
|
||||
|
||||
# Technical Stack - Services
|
||||
|
||||
* Services usually run in their own VM.
|
||||
* Central user directory with OpenLDAP.
|
||||
* Monitoring is provided by Prometheus + Grafana.
|
||||
* Backups with Borg.
|
||||
* ...
|
||||
|
||||
# Tooling
|
||||
|
||||
* There was no tooling at e-Durable, so we made our own.
|
||||
* Software Forge: code.recycled.cloud
|
||||
* Documentation: wiki.recycled.cloud
|
||||
* Mailing Lists: lists.recycled.cloud
|
||||
* File Sharing: files.recycled.cloud
|
||||
* Chat: chat.recycled.cloud
|
||||
|
||||
# Buffer slide
|
||||
|
||||
That's all for the big lines! Let's do some hands-on exercises now.
|
||||
|
||||
* Allocating & accessing a new VM.
|
||||
* Using the Software Forge.
|
||||
* Configure said VM with cdist.
|
||||
|
||||
# Allocating a new VM
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{center}
|
||||
\includegraphics[width=5cm]{one-logo.png}
|
||||
\end{center}
|
||||
|
||||
* Web interface at one.$LOCATION.recycled.cloud, LDAP account.
|
||||
* VMs are defined by templates.
|
||||
* We build our own images - see the RecycledCloud/images repository
|
||||
* Allocating a new VM is easy: **demo**.
|
||||
|
||||
# Using the Software Forge
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{center}
|
||||
\includegraphics[width=10cm]{gitea-logo.png}
|
||||
\end{center}
|
||||
|
||||
* Our **VCS** is **git**.
|
||||
* **Everything** regarding the RC lives in version control.
|
||||
* **If you don't use version control, you're likely doing it wrong**.
|
||||
* code.recycled.cloud provides remote git repositories and simple issue
|
||||
tracking.
|
||||
* Joachim makes lovely git introductions.
|
||||
|
||||
# CDIST
|
||||
|
||||
\begin{center}
|
||||
\includegraphics[width=5cm]{cdist-logo.jpeg}
|
||||
\end{center}
|
||||
|
||||
* Configuration management tool (similar to Ansible, Puppet, Chef, ...).
|
||||
* **KISS**. Do one thing, and do it right.
|
||||
* Originally written by ungleichfolk, much larger community now.
|
||||
* Shellscript.
|
||||
|
||||
# CDIST 101
|
||||
|
||||
* Manifests
|
||||
* Types
|
||||
* Explorers
|
||||
|
||||
# e-Durable CDIST workflow
|
||||
|
||||
* dot-cdist.
|
||||
* cdist-workdir meta repository and third-party sources.
|
||||
* RecycledCloud and e-Durable each have their own repositories.
|
||||
* Shellcheck (it's convenient to have it built-in in your editor...).
|
||||
