Иммутабельные операционные системы: эволюция, архитектуры и опыт РЕД СОФТ

Привет, Хабр. Меня зовут Кирилл Балашов, я инженер-программист компании РЕД СОФТ. Мы в РЕД СОФТ изучили подходы к иммутабельным, или же неизменяемым операционным системам, сравнили полностью иммутабельную модель и гибридную, и выбрали гибрид для неизменяемого варианта РЕД ОС 8. Сегодня я расскажу, почему такая операционка удобнее для решения определённого круга enterprise-задач и покажу, как она работает.

#bootc #rpmostree #silverblue

Just rebooted and I’m up and running with Fedora Silverblue 40.

(Just tried reinstalling mozilla-openh264 – so videos work in Firefox – but it failed with the same error. Not a big deal, I’m using @Vivaldi as my main browser these days anyway and I guess the Fedora folks will fix this in time.)

More importantly, I wonder if the screen reader has been fixed yet. (Yes, Fedora ships with a broken screen reader.)

Note that I just encountered the following issue:

Which I worked around by removing mozilla-openh264 before running the rebase again, at which point it succeeded:

rpm-ostree remove mozilla-openh264

Notes on Setting up Xrdp PulseAudio on Fedora Silverblue

I’ve been playing with Bazzite inside Proxmox, and that led me to try and set up xrdp with glamor and pulseaudio on a new, headless Fedora Silverblue VM that I intend to use as a ML sandbox.(...)

A good read on #immutable #distro especially the #rpmostree variant. I learned about it from @jorge talking about this new paradigm of using your #computing workflow in a #cloudnative way. I started with their initial effort on #ublue and has been happily running on my Microsoft Surface 2, everything works perfectly. It's been years since I used #Fedora and I never thought I'd be using it again, but things have changed, especially with #oss community efforts like this.

Scratch that, spoke too soon. The final install also succeeded but now the box won’t reboot. So all was well until 20.04 and 20.04 → 22.04 borked it.

Fun times.

Can’t even get an ssh shell in.

Meh, rebuild from scratch it is then, I guess.

:awesome: 👍

Just updated a server I hadn’t touched in over six years from Ubuntu 16.04 → 18.04 → 20.04 → 22.04 and it all went smoothly; not a single issue.

I can’t wait for a server with Fedora Silverblue-style upgrades (CoreOS?) that’s supported by the major VPS providers in default images. Tried a while back to get Hetzner to support CoreOS but the process appears somewhat stuck:

Finally found the time to try #FedoraSilverblue, which i wanted to try way earlier. I love it! I mostly used flatpaks anyways so the switch wasn't that hard. I also found to be able to install absolutely everything i need on #Silverblue, including even #Hyprland! The #rpmostree #syntax is a bit different, but #zsh aliases will do the trick for me. My experience of the day is basically, that i don't have to miss anything from #FedoraWorkstation.

(For those of you who might not know, Fedora Silverblue is based on rpm-ostree.

Think of it as your OS on git.

Upgrades are like a simple git pull and take almost no time at all, even between major versions. It’s very common that I’m running today’s OS on my machine.

And if something goes wrong, you can always roll back. Not that I’ve had to yet.)

Interested in making a new rpm-ostree desktop variant available in Fedora to join Silverblue, Kinoite, Sericea and Onyx?
