HyadesHyadeshyades.mit.edu is a free service for the MIT community that provides website hosting and flexible compute resources. You can use Hyades to host blogs, club and lab websites, web apps, databases, and more. It’s developed and maintained by SIPB, the student computing club here at MIT.
To get started, check out this guide.
Hyades uses technology like NixOS, Podman, and libkrun, and runs all workloads as microVMs. Our code is open source and available on the MIT Forgejo instance.
Interested in helping out? Email hyades@mit.edu or stop by a weekly SIPB meeting (every Monday 7:30 PM in the SIPB office, W20-557). We also have Matrix and Mattermost channels for Hyades development.
