Spending countless hours watching every single video of @LTS_Tom and he is by far the most impressive content creator I have ever witnessed.
That being said, there is of course always that one piece of information that is missing and for me that is the answer to this question:
Watching for example How To Setup NFS With FreeNAS and XenServer - YouTube Tom is running VM’s directly from the NFS storage, and I’m wondering if this is something I could do in production. Say I have a TrueNAS Core server with SSD’s, dual CPU and a good amount of cores and RAM connected with bonded 10Gbps DAC cables to get 20Gbps. Could I run a dozen or two of LAMP servers close to SSD speeds, or would that be a dumb solution?
Ooh, and speaking of TrueNAS; I also keep wondering why everybody talks about lots (or high speed) cores and memory needs, when a Synolgy RS or FS server can provide fast 20-40Gbps throughputs with 8GB RAM and a relatively low end CPU. What secret sauce am I missing?
…exciting stuff and hopefully I will soon be in a position to also provide answers and not just bug everybody with question
