Chameleon Changelog for June 2025

This month we have changes to KVM@TACC that allow you to launch any VM flavor from a reservation, which soon will be required. In a few months, we’ll shut down VMs that aren’t from a lease, so make sure to check out the details! We’ve extended python-chi with better support for KVM, adding methods for flavor reservation, managing security groups, and volumes.

Infrastructure without Scaling Limits

Exploring Statistical Multiplexed Computing for Unlimited Infrastructure Scaling

IT infrastructure forms the backbone of modern society, but traditional scaling approaches face critical limitations that expose services to security and reliability shortcomings. This research investigates Statistical Multiplexed Computing (SMC) principles to build infrastructures without scaling limits, similar to how TCP/IP protocols enabled indefinite network scaling.
