Raspberry Pi Hosting Firm miniNodes Grows Up Enough to Get a Proper Data Center The pioneer of selling tiny bare-metal computers as a service expects more growth, fueled by the rise of Arm servers.
After seven years in existence, miniNodes, a Phoenix-based provider of bare-metal Raspberry Pi hosting services, has grown out of its first data center also known as founder David Tischler s home office.
Tischler says he now has 40 to 50 customers, which he serves from a small rack of Raspberry Pis in his home, networked using Cisco routing, firewall, and switching, with a dedicated internet connection, so it s not sharing with my kids streaming YouTube or something.
