rah, The Cloud Outgrows Linux, And Sparks A New Operating System
…which runs on top of Linux
haui_lemmy, i hate clickbait so much. Are there extensions for firefox that change clickbait back to regular titles? I heard something like this exists. Sounds like i should use it.
Ephera, You might be thinking of this extension, which is only for YouTube, though: dearrow.ajay.app
haui_lemmy, Ah! Thanks. That might be it.
jerrythegenius, Tell me if you find one lol

Would have worked a charm for this particular article
Norgur, Summary:
Michael Stonebraker and Matei Zaharia have created a new operating system called DBOS that uses a distributed database as its core instead of the traditional Linux kernel. They realized that the large scale of modern cloud computing made operating system state management a database problem. DBOS uses FoundationDB as its initial database kernel and allows services to be written in SQL. It provides benefits like time travel debugging and a smaller attack surface compared to Linux. If successful, DBOS could compete with serverless platforms and even replace traditional operating systems.
BaroqueInMind, (edited ) This is stupid. It’s just linux, but running on someone else’s computer.
NeoNachtwaechter, uses a distributed database as its core
This got me quite a little excited at first, but then…
services to be written in SQL.
… the cold shower hit.
lemann, I was curious as to whether this was proprietary or not, but code for some operating system components is available online: github.com/DBOS-project
Time will tell as to whether this ends up gaining momentum or not, right now it seems pretty niche… Cloud providers ultimately will need to show interest for this to go anywhere I think
PropaGandalf, (edited ) Buddy, I just made a post about this a few hours ago here ^^
TerraRoot, Why the down votes?
