- A Poet, our datastore, where your data should live. It keeps the
data in its own volume or directory, and one Poet serves a whole cluster
or several machines.
- What feeds it: Muses, our collectors, and the OpenTelemetry your
applications already emit. They send to a Poet and keep no data of their
own, so a machine that only sends needs no datastore.
You open it on our site, https://infinitehaiku.com, and your browser reads the
Poet over a direct, encrypted WebRTC connection: no data passes through our
servers; we only handle sign-in.
Where the Poet runs
What feeds it
| Source | How |
| The cluster the Poet runs in | The Kubernetes Muse in the same pod |
| The machine the Poet runs on | The macOS or Linux Muse beside it |
| Other Kubernetes clusters | A Muse only, sending to an existing Poet over HTTPS |
| Other Linux machines | A Muse only, sending over HTTPS |
| Your applications | OpenTelemetry (OTLP/HTTP), in the Poet’s cluster or to a Linux Poet |
Connect a Poet
- Name it. Sign in at https://infinitehaiku.com as an organisation
admin, open Access › Clusters and name the cluster or machine, such
as
prod-eu-1 or db-1. You get its token.
- Install it where the Poet will live. Pick what you are connecting:
for A Kubernetes cluster the screen shows the whole Helm command
with the token filled in (a cluster that should only feed an existing
Poet: pick Send to an existing Poet); for A Linux machine
(NixOS), the token, shown once, and the NixOS configuration with
your names filled in; for A Mac or Linux machine, one line to run
on it, with the token in its first line.
- Watch it connect. The name turns Connected as soon as the Poet
starts; the wait is the images and the volume. Its nodes, pods or
processes then appear for everyone in your organisation.
We never get access to your cluster or machine. Removing a Poet is one command, and your data was
only in your own volume, so you can leave at any moment
(leaving).
- Install on Kubernetes: One Helm command, filled in for you on our site. The cluster turns Connected as soon as the pod starts; your browser then reads it over a direct, encrypted WebRTC connection.
- Install on a Mac or Linux machine: One line installs the Poet and its Muse as services, from our signed downloads. A Mac needs no administrator rights.
- Install on NixOS: A NixOS server or VM: the Poet and the Linux Muse as systemd services through our NixOS module. Other distributions use the one-line installer.
- Install with plain YAML: No Helm in the cluster, or a policy review first: render the chart once, read it, apply it with kubectl.
- Install examples: Recipes for relay-only networks, mirrors, pull secrets, storage, deleting data on uninstall, Flux, upgrades and several clusters.
