Makiatto

Makiatto is a lightweight CDN that lets you deploy and distribute content across multiple servers with minimal infrastructure overhead. It creates a secure WireGuard mesh network between your machines and provides automatic content synchronisation, GeoDNS routing, and coordinate-based geographic distribution through simple CLI commands.

[!WARNING] Makiatto is currently under active development and not all features have been implemented. Do NOT use this yet.

Features

• One-command deployment: Initialise nodes with a single CLI command
• GeoDNS with coordinate-based routing: Automatically direct users to their nearest server
• No single point of failure: Decentralised architecture with no control plane
• Automatic SSL certificates: Built-in Let's Encrypt integration
• Simple content management: Easy file uploads and website deployments

Who is this for?

• Developers who want their own CDN infrastructure instead of using commercial providers
• Privacy-conscious users who prefer self-hosted solutions
• Small teams serving static sites that need global performance without vendor lock-in
• Hobbyists who enjoy building their own infrastructure
• Anyone with multiple VPS instances who wants to put them to good use

Quick Start

1. Install the CLI

   cargo install makiatto-cli
   

2. Create your CDN nodes

   Set up nodes in different geographic regions. Each node will automatically join the mesh network and sync content.

   #       init machine args <name> <ssh: user@address:port>
   makiatto-cli machine init tololo user@server1.example.com
   makiatto-cli machine init vector user@server2.example.com
   makiatto-cli machine init klukai user@server3.example.com
   

3. Configure your project

   Create a makiatto.toml file in your project to define your domain and content paths:

   [[domain]]
   name = "zuccherocat.cafe"
   path = "./dist"
   

4. Deploy your content

   Sync your static files and domain config to all nodes in the mesh:

   makiatto-cli sync
   

Your content is now distributed globally with automatic geolocation DNS routing!
