Software Infrastructure

Our infrastructure leverages several powerful technologies and platforms to provide a robust and efficient environment for our operations.

Debian

Our servers run on Debian, a highly stable and reliable Linux-based operating system. Debian provides a strong foundation for our operations, with its wide array of packages, excellent package management system, and strong community support. Its stability and robustness make it an excellent choice for our server environments.

Proxmox Virtual Environment

We utilize Proxmox, an open-source server virtualization management solution. Proxmox allows us to manage virtual machines, containers, storage, virtualized networks, and HA clustering from a single, integrated platform. This is crucial in ensuring we have maximum control and efficiency in managing our various server processes. We utilize linux 6.1 lts pve kernel.

LXC (Linux Containers)

We leverage LXC (Linux Containers) to run multiple isolated Linux systems (containers) on a single host. This containerization technology provides us with lightweight, secure, and performant alternatives to full machine virtualization.

ZFS

ZFS, the Zettabyte File System, is an advanced filesystem and logical volume manager. It was designed to overcome many of the major issues found in previous designs and is used for storing data in our Proxmox environment. It provides robust data protection, supporting high storage capacities and efficient data compression, and allows us to create snapshots and clones of our filesystem.

Ansible

We use Ansible for automation of our system configuration and management tasks. Ansible enables us to define and deploy consistent configurations across multiple servers, and automate routine maintenance tasks, thus increasing efficiency and reducing the risk of errors.

MikroTik RouterOS

Our network infrastructure relies on MikroTik RouterOS, a robust network operating system. This system offers a variety of features such as routing, firewall, bandwidth management, wireless access point, backhaul link, hotspot gateway, VPN server, and more. This helps us ensure secure, efficient, and reliable network operations.

All these technologies are intertwined, working together to support our operations. They are chosen not just for their individual capabilities, but also for their compatibility and interoperability, creating an integrated, efficient, and reliable software infrastructure.
