   Katakate – Dozens of VMs per node for safe code exec▲124

   I've built this to make it easy to host your own infra for lightweight VMs at large scale. Intended for exec of AI-generated code, for CICD runners, or for off-chain AI DApps. Mainly to avoid Docker-in-Docker dangers and mess. Super easy to use with CLI / Python SDK, friendly to AI engs who usually don't like to mess with VM orchestration and networking too much. Defense-in-depth philosophy. Would love to get feedback (and contributors: clear & exciting roadmap!), thx

    Setup a gpu optimized spark/hadoop cluster with docker compose▲7

    Hey folks, I figured this might be useful for a few people who want to play with hadoop and spark locally. Feedback hugely appreciated. I built this from the pain of wanting to setup a cluster for demos. I have gpu bits in there due to the use case but figured maybe some could draw inspiration from this. Happy to answer questions if there's any interest. Link here: https://github.com/deeplearning4j/docker

    Serverless async back ends for compute-heavy operations▲5

    Hi HN, we’re Jessie and Eric. We’ve been baking away at Cakework (https://www.cakework.com/), which is a way to build async backends without needing to manage cloud infrastructure. Cakework is for operations that take time or more compute, like file processing, report generation, or machine learning. Devs write backends as Python functions and deploy them with our CLI. They use our client SDKs to make requests, get status, and get processing results. Each request runs with its own CPU and memory parameters in its own microVM, with no timeouts. Devs can query for failures and…
