Rook – Open, Cloud Native, and Universal Distributed Storage in Alpha
- blacksqr 10y agoAlpha.
- wslh 10y agoLike life.
- justinsaccount 10y agoRook may be alpha, but they didn't start from scratch: > rookd uses an embedded version of Ceph for storing all data > rookd embeds Etcd to store configuration and coordinate cluster-wide management operations
- philips 10y agoYes, I think this is what makes this project so interesting. It keeps Ceph in the data path which has been tuned over 8+ years while leaning on the stability and advances in etcd for consistent distributed configuration.
- seanp2k2 10y agoGood. Filesystems sometimes seem easy-ish, but starting from something fairly proven is a very good idea in this space IMO.
- giis 10y agoFrom GitHub Usage looks simple. Quick question on the listed example, after creating 10MB new volume image. Later does it allow volume resize (say to 20MB) ?

- smarx007 10y agoWorth noting that it's a project connected to Quantum (http://www.quantum.com/ http://www.quantum.com/)
- baybal2 10y agoFeels like a yet another storage startup in making Aiming up to be bought by EMC in two years or so
- deforciant 10y agoVery interesting, what's the minimum amount of nodes required to operate it?
- irontoby 10y agoAccording to the link, > It scales from a single node, to multi-PB clusters spread geographically
- jbpetersen 10y agoI don't suppose anyone could say how this compares to Torus when using CoreOS?
- notacoward 10y agoSo, it's an independent distribution of Ceph with a focus on ease of use. Not a bad goal. I just hope they don't complicate actual Ceph developers' lives by making outlandish claims about technology they don't understand.
- hbogert 10y agoCouldn't they have improved ceph? - if it's a simpler ceph they want.
