Right. It takes full time to work on this. But I got help from a co-founder now. Actually, AI does help a lot to setup all variations of testing scenarios and uncover edge case bugs. It's more helpful than vibes. And you do need to be

SeaweedFS performance should be the fastest. Please create an issue if there are any performance issues with SeaweedFS, or you see it is slower than any alternatives. (I work on SeaweedFS)

Thanks! I am sure most of the bugs are fixed now. SeaweedFS now should have the most complete S3 API support now. (I work on SeaweedFS)

Actually, I managed to reproduce this. It was caused by upstream grpc connection pool ( https://github.com/grpc/grpc-go/issues/9330 ). Fixing it now.

Hi, KronisLV, I work on SeaweedFS and would like to know about the "issues with SeaweedFS failing under concurrent writes when backing Sentry". You can reply here or create a github issue for this. Appreciate it!

If less components is desired, use SeaweedFS, which supports S3 table buckets and Iceberg catalog and maintenance. Basically storing Iceberg tables data and metadata.

I work on SeaweedFS. Just download the single binary, for most platforms, and run "weed mini -dir=your_data_directory", with all the configuration optimized.

I work on SeaweedFS. I am trying to support AWS S3 APIs as complete as possible. Recently added support for Table Bucket, besides myriads of details, such as policies, STS, IAM, OIDC, WORM, lock and versioning, governance, etc.

(I work on SeaweedFS.) Haha, you used Claude to find the Clause code. I used Claude to generate a lot of admin UI pages, saved a lot of time. The core storage engine part I dare not using AI, same as you.

I work on SeaweedFS. It is not backed by any greedy VC. So no urgency to make a large profit from the open source community.

Not correct. The files are chunked into smaller pieces and spread to all volume servers.

Disclaim: I work on SeaweedFS. Why skipping SeaweedFS? It rank #1 on all benchmarks, and has a lot of features.

The blob storage is what SeaweedFS built on. All blob access has O(1) network and disk operation. Files and S3 are higher layers above the blob storage. They require metadata to manage to the blobs, and other metadata for directories, S3 ac

Sorry it was not so clear. Previously fallocate just allocate disk space for a local server. Now SeaweeedFS can allocate a blob on a remote storage.
