So, in one of my many discussions with Paul last week, we were talking
about containers, how we're approaching them in Fedora, etc. One of
the ideas was that we should probably look at dogfooding container
technology within Fedora itself to become more comfortable with it.
I know we like things to be packaged in Fedora and there is nothing
wrong with that. However, deploying Cantas via a container would seem
to be an ideal thing to try as an initial dogfooding effort. It would
let both rel-eng and Infra get used to the technologies while also
providing a valuable service to themselves. What do people think of
that idea?
I'm open to the idea, I've been messing with containers for quite some
time during my stint on the OpenShift Online team and would welcome
bringing this technology into the rel-eng and infrastructure
wheelhouse.
Also note, container building is another topic I'd like to bring up in
terms of koji at some point (either something that gets added to
current gen via some sort of patching/refactor or something that's
taken into consideration for next-gen koji), but that's easily a
larger topic for another thread. There's a lot of interesting
development being done in this space in various upstream locations to
handle layered image dependency chains, squashing of images for space
savings, automatic detection of layers needing rebuilds for security
updates, and all sorts of other topics.
tl;dr - +1 from me for containerizing, but I think that is a longer
conversation than, "just slap it in docker and go"
