## Deterministic Deployment
|
||||
|
||||
- flists concept (deduped vfilesystem, no install, ...)
|
||||
|
||||
The Dedupe filesystem flist uses fuse = interface which allows you to create the file system interface in user space, it is a virtual filesystem.
|
||||
Metadata is exposed. The system sees the full tree of the image, but data itself not there, data is downloaded whenever they are accessed.
|
||||
|
||||
There are multiple ways to create an flist:
|
||||
- Convert an existing docker image which is hosted on the docker hub
|
||||
- Push an archive like a tjz on the hub
|
||||
- A library and CLI tool exist to build the flist from scratch: doing it this way, the directory is locally populated, and the flist is then created from the CLI tool.
|
||||
- A [GitHub action](https://github.com/threefoldtech/publish-flist) allows to build a flist directly from GitHub action, useful for developers on GitHub
|
||||
|
||||
Be aware that the flist system works a bit differently than the usual deployment of containers (dockers), which doesn't do mounting of volumes from your local disk into container for configuration.
|
||||
With flists you need to modify your image to get configuration from environment. This is basically how docker was originally intended to be used.
|
||||
|
||||
- Smart contract for IT
|
||||
The smart contract for IT concept is applicable to any workload: containers, VMs, all gateways primitives, volumes, kubernetes and network.
|
||||
It is a static agreement between farmer and user about deployment of an IT workload.
|
||||
|
||||
- no dynamic behavior for deployment at runtime
|
||||
|
||||
- no process can start unless the files are 100% described on flist level
