Curious, what is your product?

HDDs - are never one time costs. Do datacenters also offer ordering and replacing HDDs?


With 30PB it's likely they will simply let capacity fall as drives fail.

They apparently have zero need for redundancy in their use case, and the failure rate won't be high enough to take out a significant percentage of their capacity.


They offer replacing, yes, but normally expect you to order the new one. (Usually covered by a warranty, sent next business day.)


Nice, did you follow a course or any resources to build it? Please share, I have a similar goal. Thank you.


I took a quick glance at the code, I believe it may build upon "Build Your Own Database From Scratch in Go" [0]. The first part of the book is available for free on the author's website, along with information on how to purchase the full book (which includes source code).

I share the same goal and am working through the material after working through Codecrafters' "Build your own SQLite" [1]. Good luck!

I apologize in advance for mistakes (formatting, et cetera). I just registered this account to point you toward resources I found helpful.

Does something like this exist for java, don't want to take the burden of a new language.


I don't think these things really fit the bill, but this is closest I could find. All the codecrafters stuff is focused on reading from a sqlite DB. A great start, but you're not implementing B+ trees.

Hope this gives you some options.

it's not that hard, you should try it :)


What’s a LS?

I do this time to time; but I also watch a lot of nonsense on the same account. Wish there were more controls to premium account.


Interesting. What are the alternative clients you recommend or use?

Edit: found this repo on github, never knew something like this existed. https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped


There’s an opensource version of CloudFoundry. https://github.com/cloudfoundry/cf-deployment


For the curious, OP's blog: https://blog.quastor.org


Your website looks really neat, what JS stack did you choose to build?


That website is built on rails, no js stack (beyond stimulus). Our newer, embedded version, is built on Elixir / Phoenix.
