Recipe for customizing a SmartoOS image and cloning it

1. Create base image

1.1. Download and install the base image:

[root@00-0c-29-aa-24-ba ~]# imgadm list
UUID                                  NAME             VERSION  OS       PUBLISHED
9eac5c0c-a941-11e2-a7dc-57a6b041988f  base64           13.1.0   smartos  2013-04-26T15:17:57Z

I built this service rendered over HTTPS.

We're using the Hawk protocol to authenticate message producers, but since the service will use HTTPS, Hawk is an overkill in my opinion.

Some of the drawbacks of using Hawk in my opinion:

Signs whole message: overkill when you're using TLS
Tries to be stateless on the server-side and implements a sort of message non-repeatability by including a timestamp inside the message. The timestamp has to be equal to the server-side time take or give 1 minute. This imposes time synchronizatin between client and server, which is hard to enforce.

Personalized Sync

The goal is for each client to have a local personalized copy of the database. This personal local database is a subset of all the existing documents. Clients can share documents or not.

Authenticated session and filters

Each client intiates an authenticated session with the server. On each session, server sets up personalized read and write filters. These filters only propagate changes that the user is allowed / interested in.

Kernelify

Node.js kernel generators.

Sombrero cluster

Have the node. Now need to figure out:

DHT-based sharding, Gossip and all that stuff
Proxy: Gossip client + reverse HTTP proxy
