Slashdot Mirror
New Linux Petabyte-Scale Distributed File System
An anonymous reader writes "A recent addition to Linux's impressive selection of file systems is Ceph, a distributed file system that incorporates replication and fault tolerance while maintaining POSIX compatibility. Explore the architecture of Ceph and learn how it provides fault tolerance and simplifies the management of massive amounts of data."
You just contradicted yourself. You're right; it's just a matter of time. Only, thing is, this is the Internet. How long to recreate that data? Weeks? Months? Years? 6 months is an eternity on the Net.
If all the accounts and stories were lost on Slashdot due to a massive database failure, how many people would come back, creating a new account and so forth? How many long would it take before there was enough content and accounts to make it interesting again? Now realize that Slashdot is a drop in the bucket compared to Google.

It was noble of you to try to wrest control of a troll thread, but your comment loses a lot of credibility for being titled "Re: Do niggers use linux?"
Would it hurt to at least change the title while you strive for visibility and relevance? When I saw the title of your post, I half-expected to see a poorly-written diatribe against Jamal Jackson for playing basketball and chasing caucasian women.
Thank you, kind sir, for listening. We all must do our part to prevent trolling!

The ffmpeg developers can manage yet the "professionals" at Adobe cant?
"freetardry" is the only reason h264 acceleration is supported under Linux.
If we waited for the nickel-and-dime-you approach to come to the rescue we would still be waiting.
At least with MacOS, Adobe had a real excuse.
A Pirate and a Puritan look the same on a balance sheet.
