Meet Marc, the Brains Behind the Antsle Nano
Like with everything worth waiting for, it was a long road to get to where we are today with the Nano. Read about the challenges Marc had to overcome in order to get our intuitive and advanced OS, edgeLinux 2.0, up and running on the Raspberry Pi 4 in our interview below. Interview Transcript: Bernie: Hi […]

We’re announcing something really exciting, the Antsle Nano. Here you’ll learn everything, from why we came up with it, how we came up with it, what it means for you, and what you could use it for. Video Transcript: ARM Architecture In a recent video, I told you about how we migrated everything from a […]
Continue readingCentOS Virtualization for edgeLinux.
Here at Antsle we’ve been constantly on the lookout for you guys. We’ve continuously been thinking about the best way to continue making the private cloud and on-prem virtualized infrastructure simple and accessible to anyone. We now feel that using CentOS virtualization and bare-metal containerization is the right way for Antsle from now on. The […]
Continue readingThe Launch of AntMan 2.0.
AntMan 2.0 fundamentally changed the DNA of what we do. We started antMan as the manager for your “cloud in a box” being able to manage the various aspects of the antlets (virtual servers) “living” in your Antsle. With antMan 2.0 we are moving into an exciting new realm: orchestration. This next step is about […]
Continue readingUsing Antsle for Factory Systems Automation
Factories and manufacturing plants of all shapes and sizes are focusing getting faster and smarter. Faster production through automation and smarter production through data capture and analysis. All the systems running in a plant have to be controlled by software running on-prem. The public cloud just isn’t an option, primarily because of latency but also […]
Continue readingantHill – Why, What and How.
With antMan 0.9.0, Antsle introduced antHill, the portal to your Antsles. Why did we introduce antHill? The main purpose is to make the initial setup of your Antsle or edgeLinux server more reliable. We found that setting up a server stand-alone, relying only on mDNS to work, can be hard. Your specific network setup and […]
Continue readingIf storage capacity is your main concern, the price of Antsle just dropped by two thirds!
While SSD prices have become more and more affordable, they are still prohibitively high beyond 2TB. And for really high capacity, normally you don’t need to access all that information that often, so spinning drives (HDD) will be OK most of the time. We’re happy to announce that we now offer 4TB HDDs for our […]

I’m often asked how one can run 100 or more virtual servers on just one Antsle – our private cloud server. Short Answer Before I bombard you with details, let me rephrase the question and give the short answers first: What is a virtual server anyway? Anything that behaves like a physical server. Can be […]
Continue readingWhat OS is used in Antsle
What OS is used in Antsle We often face the question of what OS we use in Antsle. While we usually reply “antsleOS”, that is only part of the story. antsleOS is a Hypervisor The purpose of Antsle is to make it easy to create a set of virtual servers, called antlets. You can run […]

“No Linux anymore? Isn’t Linux on my servers the best choice still?”. That’s what I heard from my friends and colleagues so many times. There seems to be a big preoccupation out the in field, favoring Linux. “What else are you using? Windows?” Don’t be silly. No more Linux on my servers My journey for finding […]
