Yes, but this isn't a database, it's an object store. Block, file, and object storage platforms have yet to implement similar functionality. Block and file platforms are in particular very closed.
- MartinMond 11y agoWhat about riak's pre-commit hooks?
- cloudgeek 11y agoAppears to be only related to the write path, i.e. pre-write and post-write. Doesn't do anything for read, delete, rename, search. Also seems to be largely focused on validation. Thank you for pointing this out though.
- KaiserPro 11y agoNot really, Block systems are just glorified key:value databases. Here are a few scalable open source block/object storage systems: Lustre Ceph tahoe-lafs XtreemFS These are all opensource. For example, if I wanted a fast global-coherent CDN, then all I need are webservers and GPFS, with some glue code to allow auth'd uploads/deletes. geographically scalable, with tiered storage levels. If you want to run on dodgy hardware, then use XtreemFS. but you'll pay a performance price. I'd be interested in a comparison in developer language(as in graphs code examples etc.), with a github link or similar.
- cloudgeek 11y agoWe might not be using the same definition for "block". Happy to chat offline if you'd like to email me (joel@maraudersoftware.com). Cheers
