Vates demoed on kubecon an ARM workstation running XCP-ng, a xen-based virtualization platform.

It’s still early days, but I’m hoping it can reach homelabs, the big question being hardware enablement, which is difficult on ARM baseboards due to lack of standardization.
Disclaimer: I work with Vates, and prepared some component to compile under ARM to prepare the demo.
Oof, GitHub doing a cloud lift and shift to Azure.
I’ve done major lift and shifts, expect 2 years of runway on this feature pause.
Inevitably some teams are going to add new features and it’s going to get janky (happens every time).
seems like a huge risk and poorly planned. if I was invested in their product I would feel compelled to pull my support.
personally I only have one or two repos remaining in my github account. all the rest I have already moved to my selfhosted gitlab instance.
I guess I’m going to need to migrate those soon as well.

Sounds like everything MS has done recently.
NetVisor looks interesting
Yeah it does look cool. Thanks for the comment i would have missed it. Not sure if i have the expertise to properly interpret a network map like that, but would be fun to spin up
