Overview

*bisos.pals (Possession Assertible Libre Services) is a python package which is used to manage abstrations of ByStar Autonomy Assertable Internet Services BPOs

bisos.pals is part of PyCS-BISOS-Framework. BISOS is part of ByStar (By)*.

The Libre-Halaal ByStar Digital Ecosystem (By* DE) is an interdisciplinary, and ethics-oriented non-proprietary digital ecosystem which challenges the existing proprietary American digital ecosystem while operating concurrently alongside it. On a global scale, By* provide Internet Application Services which preserve autonomy and privacy of the individual. BISOS: (By* Internet Services Operating System) layered on top of Debian, is a unified and universal framework for developing both internet services and software-service continuums that use internet services. BISOS is a layer on top of Debian. Blee: (BISOS Libre-Halaal Emacs Environment) is a layer on top of Emacs and BISOS, which creates a comprehensive integrated usage and development environment. Blee and BISOS are fully integrated. See the “Nature of Polyexistentials” book for the bigger picture of how all of ByStar fits together.

For bootstraping BISOS, Blee and ByStar; you can start at: https://github.com/bxgenesis/start

BISOS Possession Assertable Libre Services (PALS)

Based on capabilities of BPOs and the capabilities of service-side profiled Debian packages, we can now create Libre Services.

BISOS Libre Services can be thought of four parts:

1. Libre-Halaal software of the services (usually a Debian Package)

2. Configuration information for the software for the service (often as a repo of a PALS-BPO)

3. Names and numbers for binding of services (as a repo of a PAAI-BPO)

4. Service owner data (in the form of one or more BPOs)

This model provides for portability and transferability of Libre Services between network abodes. For example, a Libre Service at a provider can be transferred to its owner to be self-hosted.

There are some similarities between PALS-BPO and container virtualization (Docker and Kubernetes). PALS-BPOs include comprehensive information for construction of services and these can be mapped to container virtualization. However, at this time BISOS does not use container virtualization, as it is redundant. BISOS uses BPOs to create and recreate Kernel-based Virtual Machines (KVM) inside of which PALS-BPOs are deployed.

Self-hosting is the practice of running and maintaining a Libre Service under one’s own full control at one’s own premise. BISOS Possession Assertable Libre Services (PALS) can be initially self-hosted and then transferred to a Libre Service provider. PALS can also be initially externally hosted and then become self-hosted on demand. The concept of “transferability” between network abodes is well supported in BISOS.
