> coreos archived etcd-operator doesn't surprise me. this operator really tarnished coreos in my eyes when I learned that the it worked only with volatile storage, so if for example, your power backup failed and every node went down, you lost your all your etcd data until your last manual backup. it felt like it was a half-assed attempt of a proof of concept and it was somehow being used in production systems by a lot of people, including the guys in the article. however, and to be fair, I don't know if it evolved much after our experience, although the fact that it was scrapped doesn't bode well. luckily it didn't resist much testing so we didn't waste much time with it.
