Anyone heard anything from dragonflyBSD lately? This sounds like something that might go well with HammerFS?
Nice! Can we have high availability / clustering for jails next?
Looks like this could really become a game changer for the FreeBSD folks using bhyve. The author often complained about this missing feature and he was also contributing to the Sylve project. Looks like he's crafting something.
so bhyve getting live migration finally means sylve might actually be usable for production clusters, been waiting on this.
Also related is Propolis from Oxide who worked on live migration with Bhyve https://github.com/oxidecomputer/propolis
What’s FreeBSDs story like for Docker these days?
I love FreeBSD. But I reluctantly had to migrate one of my home servers to Ubuntu Server because I needed Docker support as well as ZFS. Ubuntu Server, compared to FreeBSD, is a complete clusterfuck of an OS. And I regret the effort I spent migrating.
I used to use Ubuntu a lot about 7 years ago. I saw the writing on the wall. Once they started forcing snap down people’s throats, especially. I’ve been on Debian ever since and have been very happy. I also have run many other OS’s and I feel that Debian is still a good blend of polished and still friendly to the hacker.

My current setup for Docker (Podman really in my case):
Proxmox -> Linux VMs -> Podman containers inside Linux VMs
FreeBSD's bhyve hypervisor -> Linux VMs -> Podman containers inside Linux VMs
