Congratulations Infinit. Definitely a surprise until I read the background on your container work.
This looks like a very exciting project, maybe if this is refined it could be used for prosumer/homeusers to scale their NAS storage?
It would be suited to that, you can join us on our Slack channel if you have any questions: https://infinit.sh/#slack
"With stateful applications being the next natural step in this evolution..."
So ephemeral applications are not hip?

Congrats Julien & Baptiste and the cat from the Camping!

How does the performance of this compare to efs?
The performance is very dependent on how you plan to use the FS. I would recommend joining us on Slack so we can chat directly and see how you'd like to use it: https://infinit.sh/#slack
"... quite an incredible journey."
Reads almost as satire, given https://ourincrediblejourney.tumblr.com/

When Forces are joined journeys become incredible.
it's true, you can't use the phrase incredible journey anymore! unless you seek to make a knowing reference to your userbase.
I wonder if there have been any cases of consciously using the phrase "incredible journey" as a form of hidden message. When you want to consciously communicate to your users "realistically, everything's gonna be shut down 6 months or a year from now, with little notice", but are prohibited from doing anything but put on a smiling face.
Indeed. Sometimes phrases are usurped, and that's just the way it is; the #1 rule of communication is knowing your audience.
For instance, when I was younger, "hooking up" just meant making a connection or meeting up

What's wrong with calling it what it is?

Congratulation guys! Good luck Akim :)
Hi, member of the Infinit team here.
We're very excited to be joining Docker! Their technology is great and the momentum behind them is really impressive. Feel free to ask questions, I'll be around a little this evening (based in Paris).

How will the Infinit team and product benefit from Docker's acquisition? What sort of products and services do you plan to introduce that would have been more difficult to achieve prior? Thanks!
We've been focusing more and more on containers lately, and we quickly discovered our technology was a great fit in the docker ecosytsem (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0m-XwCoxo0&list=PLkA60AVN3h...). For us it means being able to focus on our preferred use case (Linux/backend) with more horsepower and less financial pressure.
There needs to be a --cache-only option where it pulls packages to the host then copies them into the container. Right now you have to do a two container build where the first pulls packages, you copy them out for archival/caching, then copy them into a second container for the build.
I guess another solution would be to have the base container pull the packages but not install anything. The child container would actually do the build then clean up.
