Re: OpenSSI and the web community

Depends on your requirements.  For instance we don't have SELinux
support yet.  And I'm not sure if we have had an independent security
audit of our OpenSSI code base.

Since the OpenSSI cluster is a single system (unlike farming
independent systems), security changes on any one node apply to the
entire cluster but exceptions can be made.  We will be able to satisfy
those who are at the other end of the spectrum once we add support for
virtualization within OpenSSI.

The general expectation is as long as you follow best practices it
should not be too different from a regular Linux system.  Just be
aware of the limitations of liability in the GPL.
