hi everyone! I’m David Aronchick, and I am working on an open source project called Bacalhau (bacalhau.org) which is designed to allow folks to move compute to data - faster (reduce moving of data to big clusters), cheaper (reuse idle compute, save money on ingress/egress), more secure (allow for data gravity/etc). It’s completely open source and MIT licensed. 🙂 We hope to get feedback from folks and see what we can do to make it even more useful!
