Distributing OS Images with casync
FOSDEM 2018

casync is a project that combines the idea of the rsync algorithm with git's idea of a content-addressable file systems into one tool for efficient delivery of OS images over the Internet. It has a focus on simplicity, accuracy and security.

casync is a new tool for delivering OS images over the Internet. It takes inspiration from the well-known tools rsync and git, and combines them in a new tool for efficient, high-frequency delivery of OS images over the Internet. It is suitable of delivering VM, container, IoT, OS images.

In this talk I'd like to explain both the usecase and the technical background of the tool.
