Something about the Cosmos and Reloaded software stack?

What does that have to do with FreeBSD?

This is off-topic. What is the problem?

Netflix has a lot of software stacks. They had an early one called Reloaded (Ubuntu based) which they have replaced with Cosmos (Debian based).

"Too Off-Topic"

Can one go "too off-topic"? Yes. We will not allow technical/support questions about any operating system other than FreeBSD anywhere on this forum. That includes the Off-Topic forum. Always ask technical/support questions about other operating systems on the forums or mailing lists associated...

I doubt whether they'll say goodbye to FreeBSD on the content serving / streaming side though. This sounds like 'pre-production' stuff to me.

As kpedersen already mentioned, Netflix uses a lot of different systems. Some Linux, some FreeBSD, some custom stuff. I'm sure they also use Windows somewhere.

At least the support to watch on such a standardized platform. Of course, I know that part of the CDN infrastructure is supported with FreeBSD, my concern was limited to knowing what was being migrated in a first-class FreeBSD user. Which may be an interesting topic for some, no technical questions on OS.

Unfortunately that's not up to them but is directly linked to which devices are supported by the Widevine DRM.
