ZeroTierOne - A Smart Ethernet Switch for Earth

•    C++

---

ZeroTier is a smart programmable Ethernet switch for planet Earth. It replaces the physical LAN/WAN boundary with a virtual one, allowing devices of any type at any location to be managed as if they all reside in the same cloud region or data center. All traffic is encrypted end-to-end and takes the most direct path available for minimum latency and maximum performance. The goals and design of ZeroTier are inspired by among other things the original Google BeyondCorp paper and the Jericho Forum.

pms-docker - Plex Media Server Docker repo, for all your PMS docker needs.

•    Shell

---

With our easy-to-install Plex Media Server software and your Plex apps, available on all your favorite phones, tablets, streaming devices, gaming consoles, and smart TVs, you can stream your video, music, and photo collections any time, anywhere, to any device. The bridge networking creates an entirely new network within the host and runs containers within there. This network is connected to the physical network via an internal router and docker configures this router to forward certain ports through to the containers within. The host networking uses the IP address of the host running docker such that a container's networking appears to be the host rather than separate. The macvlan networking creates a new virtual computer on the network which is the container. For purposes of setting up a plex container, the host and macvlan are very similar in configuration.

FOSS-Cloud - Virtualization- and Cloud-Services

•    PHP

kernel virtual machine

•    C

---

KVM (for Kernel-based Virtual Machine) is a full virtualization solution for Linux on x86 hardware containing virtualization extensions (Intel VT or AMD-V). It consists of a loadable kernel module, kvm.ko, that provides the core virtualization infrastructure and a processor specific module, kvm-intel.ko or kvm-amd.ko. Using KVM, one can run multiple virtual machines running unmodified Linux or Windows images. Each virtual machine has private virtualized hardware: a network card, disk, graphics adapter, etc.

k3v - Virtual Kubernetes

•    Go

---

k3v runs as a dedicated virtual Kubernetes control plane. When pods are launched they are launched in another cluster. k3v uses the compute, storage, and networking resources from a real Kubernetes cluster. This allows one to take one physical Kubernetes cluster and chop it up into smaller virtual clusters. Also, it is theoretically possible that one virtual cluster spans multiple physical clusters. Please note, this is POC quality stuff.
