Gordo-8: A Systems and Pricing Review

on 19 Aug 2021  Posted by CorpRattX  Category: Technology  Comments: 2
20210813_181855.jpg

The Computer Dudes, Inc's research on Single Board Computers, SBC's, began in the 1990s.   SBC's use very little electricity.  In the 1990s SBC's were only used for traffic signs and such.  The first SBC Computer Dudes used was a 80846.

For the last 3 years we have developed and are in production with the Gordo-8 and Gordo-12 Series.   The number beside the name indicates how many computers are in the cluster.  
The Gordo Series uses a round core which allows for many motherboards to be run in a cluster or as separate servers. 

Gordo-8 Base Configuration

Node Zero: Control Node
Node One: Apache Server
Node Two:  Samba 4 Server with 1 Tb SSD, USB 3.1
Node Three:  Samba Node (controlled by Samba4 Server)
Node Four: Raspberrian Server or Workstation
Node Five: Backup Server for Files, Data and Video
Node Six:  CUPS / Print Server
Node Seven:  Routing and Security Server

Base Pricing


Gordo-8 Monolithic Solar:  $9,750

Gordo-8 Standard plug in / indoor version:  $5,750

The Cloud Failed. "I came to bury it, not praise it." The solution to hacking and ransomware is - Virtualization and Hardware Based clustering.

The Cloud FAILED and is now an Obsolete Architecture.    You can quote me on that if you like:  Todd W. Byars,  July 1, 2021

All Clouds should be replaced immediately with a hardware based solutions and FULL Virtualization.   Modern, real time, incremental backups are recommended too.

How to Implement a Switch from Clouds to Hardware Clusters running full Virtualization:

  • Create Transition Plan to move from Clouds to Hardware Clusters.    VMware is our primary recommendation.  VMware in Command Line Interface, CLI, without all the GUI controls, gauges and services.
  • Select Micro-ITX or smaller motherboard computers that run cool or even fanlessly. Select Linux Load (preferred) or Windows Load or Other Load Procedure
  • Build Hardware, Setup and Test with Dummy Loads and Dummy Database.  After burn in and load testing run your pentesting and QA
  • Migrate Data to new Hardware Based Clustering.
  • Test, Run Live, Stress Test, PenTest and verify those backups.
  • Turn Clouds Off.

This problem is LARGE and GLOBAL.  So, The Computer Dudes, Inc and I, once again, GIVE you the procedure to use and share.   

It is for everyone, everywhere, including our competition who we consider as brothers and sisters in IT rather than competition.  So PLEASE SHARE!  

Who's your pal?  ;)  Todd

Computer Dudes - Stand Down for 30 Days, Large Contract for Security Products Pending

Continue All Projects.   Continue all Contracts.  Check on your clients. Verify Backups.  

No new clients for 30 days as Enterprise Level - International Security Group considers security product purchase and production.

We will continue to post on our line of Monolithic Solar Supercomputers, which are Polymorphic.    The Computer Dudes, Inc are still on track to the worlds first outdoor
off grid Data Center made of Granite Monoliths, requiring no wired connections that is sensor platform or public information kiosk friendly.

The primary benefit of our Solar One Monolith system is No Data Center Cost, No Electric Bill, No Air Conditioners, no hurricane proof buildings, no
need for huge backup generators with thousands of gallons of fuel. #solaronemonolith on LinkedIn 

That and it is designed to last 100 year with spare parts which are modular and preprogrammed for each client.

Computer Dudes have developed a tow-behind solar power or solar powered computers

It has a mast for lights and cameras, 2 wheels and a heavy duty tow hookup.

The solar panels fold out and then shade the machines and batteries. Cool Stuff!! :)T

We do have an Anti-Drone system by another vendor.

Drone Radar with Omni Antenna Cone. It is still pretty high in price - but if you have drone issues -

I would say its worth it. :)T

OK so we tested the Ray Ban Smartwatches for a client over the last week.

It took less than 20 minutes to hack.

We added some security and tracked down the small motherboard.

We like it, its easier on the face than other Smartglasses. :)T

Working on Assistance for Maui, Supply Line and Cleanup now - then rebuilding on a per site basis.

New types or prebuilt and completely finished Homes (not Tiny Homes).

We need discount or free Transport for A2N Air Cargo Containers packed with supplies and materials.

Do you have extra Air Cargo Capacity to Maui or anywhere in Hawaii?

Maui has a good airport with air cargo but only a small cruise ship light cargo type port.

You can find Todd Byars, Tallahassee, Florida on my LinkedIn Account and initiate contact that way.

There are a number of groups and discussions on LinkedIn and other Social Media.

If you are going to help out or donate - make sure they are legit and have things already underway BEFORE you give.

We are not taking financial donations at this time.

In a week or so we hope to post some Charity Links for groups in action on the Maui Cleanup and Rebuild. :)Todd

WOW - These Smartwatches with medical and other sensors - you can hack them and directly access the sensors.

The complex optical and other sensors in the watch can be retasked to make all sorts of sensors.

The current model we are playing with has Temperature, O2, Heart Rate, ECG, BP, Blood Glucose, Sleep, Motion, GPS, Air Pressure/Altitude Contact, and other sensors.

It is basically an Emergency Room basic patient hookup - on a persons wrist.

Note smartwatches are not "Medical Quality" sensors but the data can be used for general reference. :)T
