If you have bench marked your applications and setup the off site backup properly. I think its pretty much doable.

Can you please give some more context? Like whats the tech-stack of your Applications? Is it Monolith or Microservice? ETC...

Hi HN,

I just published a blog post about an idea I've been developing to solve a workflow problem I face as a developer juggling multiple clients.

The short version is that using full VMs for each client is resource-heavy and clunky (no notifications, hardware issues), but it provides great isolation.

My post outlines a concept for a "productivity-focused" OS inspired by Qubes, but built on lightweight LXC system containers. The goal is to get the strong isolation benefits without the performance overhead, using a custom desktop environment to handle things like unified notifications and managed hardware access.

I'd love to get this community's feedback. I'm particularly interested in your thoughts on these questions:

  1. Does this problem resonate with other freelancers, consultants, or multi-project developers?

  2. Is using LXC the right approach, or is there a better technology for this?

  3. What's a must-have feature for you if a system like this existed?

Thanks for taking a look!

Apache NIFI.

It should be used more for building Data Pipelines specifically.

Interesting, will check it out.

Few days ago I was litterally searching same thing and I was thiking same thing how come there is no solution out there with a reasonable free tier.

I just signed up and I am gonna use it going forward almost everywhere.

I would suggest you should create something pay wahterver you can tier. This can help you get some more funds.

I was about to reply same before solving 99% of world problem. Please look into why your site is taking this much time to load...

+1 for linux

Commenting so I can come back and see HN opinion

Nice strategy. I used to be in a large DevOps team and similar startegy was the eventually adopted.

Been going through something similar. I am commenting to come back to post.

Thanks for posting.

I get really sad when I see my country going down. But at the same time there isn't much that I can do.

Interesting, will check it out
