OK, thanks for the update. I'll hold off until I hear more.
A new full timer has been added to the team. Dozens of hours of work into SS has gone on this past week already!
That would be me, hello everyone!
Hello, welcome!
So you're a full time SodiumSuite dev?

He is! And development is moving like gang busters. It's awesome as we now have SodiumSuite moving at full speed, and other projects under way as well.

@JaredBusch It's been a while since I heard that song. Thanks, it is now stuck in my head haha.

In a high level D&D campaign I ran, it became common when the psionicist became powerful enough to use some Dark SUn power that is basically a permanent Dominate.

It made me think of the Sha Na Na cover of the Little Anthony and the Imperials song Tears on my Pillow and now that is stuck in my head instead.
This version sucks but it's the best I could find that's closest to what I'm talking about:

I hate to necropost, but I'm wondering how the project is doing right now? The site is up, but didn't see any updates in 2 years..

I think it went the way of many Google products.

too bad, I'd love to have seen spiceworks taken down a notch.

Was in a meeting about it in the last 30 minutes!

No, just in a total rewrite.

Interesting, why rewrite and what is it being ported to now?

The first iteration was very much a proof of concept, that we feel was very successful (maybe not the GUI, but the back end at least.) But it was based on quick and dirty tech like Meteor and MongoDB which has a license we can no longer use.
So the new rewrite is to use a wide column DB, ScyllaDB that you might have heard of, and PHP 7.x and our own abstraction layers, with the ability to scale much, much bigger. And now a focus on discrete functional completeness stage by stage, rather than a broad stroke tech preview. So the hope is a functional helpdesk out the door long before other functions are added in, for example. And a very real consideration that Salt may not be used under the hood at all, or only temporarily, as more power and functionality is desired with more control.

@scottalanmiller Was this due to MongoDB?

hehe, nice

I'm no fan of Salt, but this is quite often a tradeoff. I see a lot of products trying to implement their own DSL, and failing, while others simply give the user a means to just insert their own code, be it regular bash/python/whathaveyou or a DSL, basically, like a standard command window in jenkins. This seems to work and raise less questions about choices

BTW, I would love to hear about your team's experience with Scylla so far, this is an interesting use case
