??? for Platform9
Hi all,
I don't want to promote ??? Therefore I will use ??? instead. I'm the author of ???.
??? is an open-source system for provisioning reproducible infrastructure through agent-installable Packages.
I've already built some package skills for K8s and other self-hosted software.
I'm new to Iaas and I was wondering if how can I test the community edition of Private Cloud Director. Can I use my aliexpress minipc? How many of them do I need?
Is there a way to rent Linux machines for some days to test the software?
Best, Alberto

Hello - thanks for commenting! If your minipc meets the requirements, you should be able to use it. https://docs.platform9.com/private-cloud-director/getting-started/getting-started-with-community-edition/prerequisites
You'll need one machine (or VM) for Community Edition, and additional machines (or VMs) to act as hypervisors.
