NetBSD is used for sdf.org, the SDF Public Access UNIX System.

Fastly

At least in 2017:

"200GB/day and 55,000 requests/day" sounds like traffic numbers for Fastly's NetBSD mirror, not a claim that they run it internally.

I see, it's /day

0.6 requests per second? That certainly isn't part of their CDN...

We used to run it in the geophysics department of the university for workstations.

Also on Jump Hosts with a weird cpu architecture, so that you could not do much with them

Interesting. Does the Geophysics Department use a different OS now to run the workstations?

I don’t know unfortunately. It was a mix between NetBSD workstations, Solaris servers when I left. And for the students a pool of Scientific Linux machines (RHEL)

Thanks.

It's "big in Japan". Used on many ISP routers there, for example Internet Initiative Japan's "SEIL" family, as well as most workstations in a few Japanese universities.

pkgsrc enjoys mild popularity in the scientific computing community, a lot of NetBSD use is probably in education - Cambridge University uses it for their thin clients too.

Thanks!

A few in-space satellites I believe.

Also, Apple’s AirPort wifi devices ran NetBSD.

I know of a few small ISPs that run NetBSD on SOKRIS(sp?) machines to do routing at edge pops.

Probably Soekris. Those were nice machines but don't seem to be available any more.

SDF.org ;)
