Job Title

Open Source Software Engineers @ Sysdig Falco Maintainers

Project Title (i.e., summary of what do you want to do, not what is the name of the open source project you're working with)

Falco build and test infrastructure.

Briefly describe the project (i.e., what is the detail of what you're planning to do with these servers?)

Right now, Falco has a build and test infrastructure that is based on TravisCI and some Sysdig internal infrastructure. This is because we can't build the Falco userspace (eg., command line tools, clients etc.) in TravisCI but we need servers for building the custom kernel modules and eBPF probes on which Falco is based. Moreover our automation infrastructure for the contributing workflows in based upon PROW, which again is in internal Sysdig infrastructure. Given this, what we want to do is to have an 100% open build & test infrastructure for Falco on which all the maintainers and contributors can operate. This can only be achieved by using the CNCF cluster.

Is the code that you’re going to run 100% open source? If so, what is the URL or URLs where it is located? What is your association with that project?

https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco https://github.com/falcosecurity/falcoctl https://github.com/falcosecurity/client-go https://github.com/falcosecurity/falco-exporter https://github.com/falcosecurity/falcosidekick etc. etc.

We are the maintainers.

What kind of machines and how many do you expect to use (see: https://www.packet.com/bare-metal/)?

(1) c2.medium.x86 (4) t1.small.x86

What OS and networking are you planning to use (see: https://support.packet.com/kb/articles/supported-operating-systems)?

Ubuntu 18.04

Any other relevant details we should know about?

Hi all - I've invited lo@linux.com and leodidonato@gmail.com to the Falco project in Packet. Please let me know if there are other emails that need to be added. Thanks!

[fntlnz]

Got access, thanks @taylorwaggoner !

[fntlnz]

@taylorwaggoner @dankohn We also need to give access to the Falco Project on Packet to Kris Nova (@kris-nova)

Email: kris@nivenly.com Role: Open Source Advocate Company: Sysdig Role at Falco: Maintainer https://github.com/kris-nova

I will probably ask access for two other maintainers once anyone volunteers in the public Infrastructure/Release call we have every two weeks. Please be patient :) If you need me to open a new issue for this I will do, just let me know.

[taylorwaggoner]

I've added Kris to the project. Feel free to request in this issue. Thanks!

All of the infrastructure associated with the Falco project at the CNCF CIL has been turned down as of 04/08/2022.

@leodido is this project complete, or do you anticipate future use of it here?

[fntlnz]

@vielmetti - @leodido and I are not anymore involved in this. @vielmetti we originally shut that down because Falco had access to aws credits and we had our Prow infrastructure there.

@jasondellaluce @leogr @fededp do you know about the CNCF cluster? I'm sure you would fancy to use this for some driver builds, I feel like they would be very efficient there.

[leogr]

I wasn't aware of this, so thank you for mentioning me!

@vielmetti we will evaluate this for future use, but I guess we should fill in another issue, correct?

@leogr Yes, a new issue would be best - I'll delete the existing project, and you can fill in a new issue to reanimate it with a new request and scope. Thanks!
