I tested various mechanisms and cloud providers over the last few weeks. All providers I tested worked, although I often got less CPU than advertised . Some combinations didn't work, e.g. I can't boot grsecurity kernels on EC2. I'm sure the latter is possible, I just didn't have time to investigate.
For installation I found nixos-infect [1] to be the best solution. It uses obadz' undocumented NIXOS_LUSTRATE feature [2]. ~ [1] https://github.com/elitak/nixos-infect/blob/master/nixos-infect [2] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/17784 On 12 December 2016 at 09:47, Kamil Chmielewski <[email protected]> wrote: > I have done basic NixOps deploy support for CloudSigma: > * https://github.com/kamilchm/nixpkgs/commit/ > a64c343cd4baa07fea1bcac422a4eaa9fb2f86d9 > * https://github.com/kamilchm/nixops/commit/c2ec202f6b9a1bd488fa27abf3c218 > 241b37b5d5 > > But it's just a PoC. > > Best regards, > Kamil > > 2016-12-12 10:31 GMT+01:00 Nathan Bijnens <[email protected]>: > >> I have used Vultr, but you first need to create an image, see: >> https://www.vultr.com/docs/install-nixos-on-vultr >> >> You can also use NixOS on Azure and Amazon AWS, ideally using NixOps... >> >> Best regards, >> Nathan >> >> >> On Mon, Dec 12, 2016 at 9:37 AM Azul <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> Hey there, >> >> I use a set of really cheap OVH vps for a number of clustered apps >> (consul, zookeeper and other stuff), however since OVH do not provide a >> nixos KVM image I have deployed those on other OSs. >> Now I would like to move those apps to nixos and just have one single set >> of code to maintain, for that I just need some cheap vps provider providing >> nixos instances. >> >> What is out there that you have used ? >> _______________________________________________ >> nix-dev mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev >> >> >> _______________________________________________ >> nix-dev mailing list >> [email protected] >> http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev >> >> > > _______________________________________________ > nix-dev mailing list > [email protected] > http://lists.science.uu.nl/mailman/listinfo/nix-dev > >
