# PaulBSD migration from Scaleway to Proxmox
As announced by Scaleway on April 16th, ARM instances will EOL on end 2020.
PaulBSD infrastructure is based on one ARM64-8GB instance since 1 year with focus to migrate all in house applications.
So it was decided to migrate to Proxmox solution at home.
For reaching this goal, a new Intel NUC7i5BNH has been checked out on April.
Some of it specs below :
- Intel Core i5-7260U @ 2.2GHz CPU
- 8GB DDR4 RAM
- 500GB NVME storage
Proxmox 6.2 was installed using LVM-thin volumes, and instances using LXC technology.
To have a ready instance with many services installed and configured, an heavy work on some SaltStack-based states was done.
In fact, a new instance can be ready in few minutes:
- 5 seconds to provision
- 5 minutes to install and configured all applications and services
This week, PaulBSD infrastructure SaltStack states have been published and released under BSD Licence on [https://git.paulbsd.com/paulbsd/paulbsd-salt](https://git.paulbsd.com/paulbsd/paulbsd-salt)
Many data need to migrate like:
- Nextcloud data
- Mails
- SQL and time-series databases
For network, Free FTTH is working on site to provide internet connectivity with one IPv4 public address and a full IPv6 stack to have direct transfers between all machines on many sites.
Migration will occur on summer 2020
Made with fun !
