Yea!, as far as I understand, with p9fs now a simple zfs dataset can be shared with the VM, removing the need of ZVOLs (a ZVOL for the boot disk isn't an issue, but for example a data disk of 1tb is difficult to manage).
What about ZFS Snapshots and send/recv for backup and restore?. For us this is the cleanest approach, since we use it not only for PostgreSQL, but for all the data in our organization.
Of course, the underlying filesystem must be ZFS.
One important side effect of CGI is the fact that if one route crashes (in a REST api for example) the CGI finishes its execution and nobody is harmed. On the other side, with server daemons, one bug can kill the whole app.
I feel sad for reading this, here in Argentina until December 2015 we had a similar state backed plan called Qunita. Now the new right-handed government cancelled the plan without delivering 60k boxes and a judge is trying to burn those arguing insecurity (but none of the 1000s of mothers who received them found any glitch in the boxes).
Yes I do, but not as old style PHP or ASP (html pages server side rendered). I use AngularJs for the front end and a CGI/Stand Alone servers written in Lazarus/FPC server side.
By default it works in a multi-window envidonment, but if you want you can install the package AnchorDockingDsgn (from the Package->Install/Uninstall Package) that lets you "dock" the windows you want.
