# Carnival DevOps

> Infrastructure architecture, managed monitoring and AI memory systems, built in Bangkok and deployed worldwide. Self-hosted by default.

Carnival DevOps designs, runs and secures the infrastructure behind businesses in Southeast Asia and Europe, and builds the AI layer on top of it: retrieval pipelines, knowledge graphs, agents with persistent memory. Founded by Olivier Magnier (20+ years of enterprise IT across Ireland, Sweden, Hong Kong and Thailand). Motto: Automate. Deploy. Celebrate.

## Products

- [Ferris](https://carnival-devops.com/ferris): white-label managed monitoring and endpoint console deployed at customer sites. What it is for: the operator finds out that a site is in trouble before the customer phones — an expiring certificate is flagged 21 and 7 days ahead, a disk filling overnight alerts hours before it is full and can be cleared by an approved script, and the monthly report makes a quiet month visible so the retainer is not renegotiated. Metrics and 24/7 alerting (Telegram, e-mail, webhook), HTTP/TCP/SMTP/IMAP/TLS-expiry probes, dashboards, endpoint inventory and patch status for Linux/macOS/Windows, remote scripts, floor plans and cabling maps, maintenance windows, auto-healing hooks, zero-touch enrollment, monthly expert PDF report (EN/FR), optional SIEM and intrusion detection. One stack, one configuration file, validated before deployment. Not a SaaS: the data stays on the customer's network.
- [Recall](https://recall.carnival-devops.com/): the memory layer for AI agents. What it is for: an assistant that starts every session from zero costs the same explanation every session and re-proposes rejected fixes; Recall keeps what was decided and why, so the agent retrieves the decision instead of being told again. Hybrid BM25 + semantic search, cross-encoder reranking, recency scoring, knowledge-graph boosting, conflict detection between memories, document distillation, multi-tenant with row-level security. Ships as an MCP server for Claude Code (31 tools) and a REST API. ~60 ms search latency. Runs entirely on the customer's hardware, GPU optional (AMD ROCm or NVIDIA).
- [Kermes](https://carnival-devops.com/kermes): white-label, offline-first platform for inspections and audits. What it is for: it removes the paper checklist and the evening spent typing it into a spreadsheet (about two hours a week per inspector), works where there is no signal at all, and turns a disputed deposit or damage claim into a timestamped record with its photos and its author. A mobile app for inspectors (iOS, Android) and a web dashboard for managers and admins. Offline answers, photos, video and comments; eight field types (text, number, date, yes/no, single choice, photo, video, repeating tables); form builder and Excel import; one Sync button (push, then pull) with background media upload; conflicts keep the replaced value for a manager to choose; annotations, PDF reports with a printed revision number; locked inspections (admin-only unlock, recorded); change history with old and new values; reversible archive; inspector, manager and admin roles with per-company data separation. Apps built with the client's name and logo. Managed PostgreSQL and S3-compatible storage; self-hosting on request.
- [Delectable](https://carnival-devops.com/delectable): a desktop app that catalogues books, films, music and games on shelves, made as a replacement for Delicious Library, which stopped at the end of 2024. What it is for: it opens a Delicious Library 3 library file (items, covers, notes, shelves, ratings) without modifying it, so years of cataloguing are not lost, then adds search by title in any language or by barcode (also from a photo), details from free sources, IMDb / Rotten Tomatoes / Metacritic scores when available, summary and cast, where to watch or buy per country, completion of items entered with only a title (never replacing what was typed), editing and loans, French and English, themes. The library is a folder on the user's disk (one SQLite file and a covers folder): no account, no cloud; works offline once filled. Pre-release builds for testers on Linux, Windows and macOS; Android in progress, iPhone planned. Early access on request; no public download and no price yet. Not affiliated with or endorsed by the makers of Delicious Library.

## Approach

Observe → Design → Deploy → Automate → Celebrate. Everything ships from Git and is validated before it touches production. Runbooks are written for the junior technician; monthly reports for management. No vendor lock-in.
