BioRAFT Integrations

Dqlite is a fast, embedded, persistent SQL database with Raft consensus that is perfect for fault-tolerant IoT and Edge devices. Dqlite (“distributed SQLite”) extends SQLite across a cluster of machines, with automatic failover and high-availability to keep your application running. It uses C-Raft, an optimised Raft implementation in C, to gain high-performance transactional consensus and fault tolerance while preserving SQlite’s outstanding efficiency and tiny footprint. C-Raft is tuned to minimize transaction latency. C-Raft and dqlite are both written in C for maximum cross-platform portability. Published under the LGPLv3 license with a static linking exception for maximum compatibility. Includes common CLI pattern for database initialization and voting member joins and departures. Minimal, tunable delay for failover with automatic leader election. Disk-backed database with in-memory options and SQLite transactions.

Get an instant Ubuntu VM with a single command. Multipass can launch and run virtual machines and configure them with cloud-init like a public cloud. Prototype your cloud launches locally for free. The first five minutes with Multipass let you know how easy it is to have a lightweight cloud handy. Let’s launch a few LTS instances, list them, exec a command, use cloud-init and clean up old instances to start. The ”Ubuntu Server CLI cheat sheet“ is your fast path to learning the Linux command line - from basic file management to deploying Kubernetes and OpenStack. Multipass provides a command line interface to launch, manage and generally fiddle about with instances of Linux. The downloading of a minty-fresh image takes a matter of seconds, and within minutes a VM can be up and running. Launch instances of Ubuntu and initialise them with cloud-init metadata like AWS, Azure, Google, IBM and Oracle clouds. Simulate your own cloud deployment on your workstation.

Install and run OpenStack on Linux in minutes. Made for developers and great for edge, IoT, and appliances. A full OpenStack in a single snap package. MicroStack is an upstream multi-node OpenStack deployment which can run directly on your workstation. Although made for developers, it is also suitable for edge, IoT and appliances. Grab MicroStack from the Snap Store and get your OpenStack running right away. Get a full OpenStack system running in minutes. Runs safely on your laptop with state of the art isolation. Pure upstream OpenStack delivered to your laptop. Includes all key OpenStack components: Keystone, Nova, Neutron, Glance, and Cinder. All the cool things you probably want to try on a small, standard OpenStack are all built-in. Use MicroStack in your CI/CD pipelines and get on with your day without headaches. MicroStack requires at least 8 GB RAM and a multi-core processor.

Better operators for enterprise apps with a full application graph and declarative integration for both Kubernetes and legacy estate. Juju operator integration allows us to keep each operator as simple as possible, then compose them to create rich application graph topologies that support complex scenarios with a simple, consistent experience and much less YAML. The UNIX philosophy of ‘doing one thing well’ applies to large-scale operations code too, and the benefits of clarity and reuse are exactly the same. Small is beautiful. Juju allows you to adopt the operator pattern for your entire estate, including legacy apps. Model-driven operations dramatically reduce maintenance and operations costs for traditional workloads without re-platforming to K8s. Once charmed, legacy apps become multi-cloud ready, too. The Juju Operator Lifecycle Manager (OLM) uniquely supports both container and machine-based apps, with seamless integration between them.

Whether you want an information kiosk, digital signage display, in-car entertainment stack, or home automation interface, Mir on Ubuntu is your fastest path to deployment. Mir is a system-level component that can be used to unlock next-generation user experiences. It runs on a range of Linux powered devices including traditional desktops, IoT and embedded products. Mir is a replacement for the X window server system, commonly used on Linux desktop devices. It allows device makers and desktop users to have a well-defined, efficient, flexible, and secure platform for their graphical environment. Historically, graphical user interfaces Linux have been powered by the X windowing system. X has a long and successful history and it has served the purposes of both system level and application level UI well for more than 3 decades. However, users nowadays expect a more consistent, integrated and secure user experience than is possible to offer on top of the X windowing system.
