IDMS Linux operating system, based on ArchLinux.

This is what I run, sell support contracts for and what runs on our 2000+ servers.

• Rolling operating system
• Ilitools installer
• Rich support for a wide variety of VM images
• Azure and Amazon marketplace images
• Live recovery/installation media that supports booting off anything (CD/DVD/USB/HDD/MMC/SD, EFI and MBR)

• ilivm (conversion from python ⇒ go) - Automated virtualization
  • Based on core from OsmiumVM
• We need a better interface for pulling in and building ArchLinux packages
  • Pull in packages into staging repository by easy click click click, resolving dependencies
  • Migrate staging to live
  • Snapshot of entire repository
  • Tracking of previous package versions for PIT snapshots
