Mission confiée
We are developping NixOS Compose (https://github.com/oar-team/nixos-compose) a tool designed for experiments in distributed systems. It generates reproducible distributed environments. Those can then be deploy either in virtualized or physical platform, respectively for local and distributed deployments. It inserts itself in the development cycle of the environments and uses to the notion of transposition to make it faster and easier. The intended workflow is to have fast iteration cycle on a local virtualized distributed system and once the configuration is complete it can be used for physical deployment.
NixOS Compose is based on Nix (https://nixos.org/) a functional package managers which provides reproducibility and allows to elaborate and master complex software stack.
We are lookin for a candidate that will join our team to develop NixOS Compose and its use in Exa-AToW project.
