    From Andreas Tille@21:1/5 to All on Fri Jun 6 22:30:01 2025
    Hi Arash,

    I have not seen any response to your kind offer. Thus I put our
    Hardware donations team in the row.

    Thanks a lot in any case
    Andreas.

    Dear Debian Team,

    I hope this message finds you well.

    I have a server that I would like to partially dedicate to the Debian project. The current specifications are as follows, though they may vary:

    -

    CPU: 10 to 20 cores
    -

    RAM: 10 to 15 GB
    -

    Storage: 100 to 300 GB

    I would appreciate it if you could inform me of the minimum hardware requirements necessary to set up a virtual server suitable for Debian's needs. My intention is to donate this virtual server for purposes such as hosting a mirror or any other use that would benefit the project.

    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    As I understand this virtual server is donated with hosting, similar
    to cloud systems and Debian has unused credit for VM in cloud
    providers, therefore this is not needed at this time by Debian
    project.

    Thanks very much for your donation.

    I can increase my server resources to double:

    - As a Debian mirror, with ~1 TB storage, 8–16 cores, 32 GB RAM, 1 Gbps link

    See https://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror and talk to debian-mirror team

    - Or as a CI/build runner to support Debian package testing

    Talk to the CI/build runner teams, those are maintained by different
    service owners.
    Maybe the debian.social team can make use of those resources. See https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianSocial

    Would either of these be helpful?

    You can talk to them, I am just talking about official Debian core infrastructure.

    I’m glad the project is well-resourced—I just wanted to help.

    Project needs resources but x86 VM is not needed at this moment for
    the official core Debian infrastructure.

    Thanks again for your time.

    Thanks for your support

    Regards
