Ideally, there’d be a simple RPM installer compatible with Alma 9 that I can point to a samba share that holds all the photos, kind of like what I do with Jellyfin. Also nice if it uses an otherwise unused port or I can easily set what port it uses.
My googling is finding a bunch of docker stuff, which always seems needlessly complicated to me vs an RPM… I’m also using a low powered x86 tiny computer to front JellyFin and would like to host this on the same computer vs needing another server.
Any ideas?
Agreed, sure scaling is one factor, but I don’t think this person has ever really dived into why containers are slick. Why you aren’t tracking down what dependency hell caused your app to crash. Conflicting cuda versions. Two apps using the same port. Trying to decipher a language you’ve never used before
Whenever I hear “containers are too complex” or “I don’t like containers” I read it as “I don’t understand containers”. There are some real flaws to them, but no self respecting ops engineer would ever say “containers have no value beyond scaling”
