Incident Management
Building Sovereign Systems with Active MirrorOS
The Active MirrorOS implementation is the backbone of a sovereign system, providing a foundation for reliability, determinism, and incident management.
I built Active MirrorOS with a focus on creating a self-controlled system that can handle failures and recoveries in a deterministic manner. The architecture of Active MirrorOS consists of multiple layers, including launchd, MirrorImmune, FailureSense, and NotifyGate. Each component plays a crucial role in ensuring the system’s reliability and determinism. For instance, MirrorImmune is responsible for detecting and classifying failures, while FailureSense provides a mechanism for recovering from failures. NotifyGate, on the other hand, suppresses unnecessary notifications, reducing the noise and increasing the signal-to-noise ratio in system monitoring.
