Is anyone here running Sandstorm? If yes, what’s your experience?
I really like the idea of “grains” where an instance of the app runs for each document/project/unit of data your app has. It does improve security a lot, because it is very similar as running root-less docker.
I also like the unified auth and user management sandstorm provides.
I used it for a project once. It is good, but make sure you have tested backup and restore (from scratch) before you need it. I found that to be a bit more problematic than usual server business. (but that was 6 years ago)
If I get it correctly, this is a kind of kasm but only for the local user, right?
I wouldn’t say so - it’s not streaming app views from the server, it provides containers for apps, segmented into “grains”. So each open document gets it’s own container. Other than that, it’s just normal web apps (like immich or seafile).
OK, it is clearer now, thanks
