Firing up the data centre

By: Mike Peters
On a Sandy Beach: 13/01/2026

Mike is the inventor and architect of Pipi and the founder of Ajabbi.

Long planned, Pipi 9's migration to its own data centre is now underway. The job has top priority and should be easily completed in a week.

First, the existing Ajabbi computer network was split into two.

  • A small start on a full data centre to be built out over time, with an attached Mission Control. It is completely isolated from the internet, with all wifi and Bluetooth disabled. It is largely housed in the first 45U rack.

  • The start of an office network. It is connected to the internet for email, Zoom/Meet/Teams calls, office work, writing documentation, minor development, testing, graphics, film editing, office servers, accounts, etc.

Developers

Developer's laptops are attached to the isolated rack to work with the servers, with the following minimal developer stack.

  • BoxLang (JRE 21)
  • CFML Server Dev edition
  • QGIS
  • PostgreSQL
  • DBeaver
  • Python
  • Dreamweaver
  • MS Access
  • MS Excell
  • Visual Studio Code
  • Acrobat
  • NoteTab Light
  • etc
The servers have a very different stack.

The data centre will often be turned off. It can be turned on so that the hundreds of Pipi Agents can run batch jobs autonomously. Eventually, many racks will be running 24x7x365.

Moving Pipi 9 to a data centre now opens the door to Pipi 10, which will be built by Pipi 9.

Mission Control

The future Mission Control UI, connected to the data centre, could be shared via a live video camera recording a live monitor, ensuring security against hackers. It could even be a YouTube Live Stream of probes for those who don't like to sleep. 😀 Though my cat tells me it is much better to watch squirrels on YouTube. 😸😹😺😻😼😽
