This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/kubernetes

Our great sponsors
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • Feel free to email me or file issues directly on the repo, I've already added a few for performance tuning ideas after talking to the folks at OpenEBS.

  • longhorn

    Cloud-Native distributed storage built on and for Kubernetes

  • It's heartening to hear that you're focusing on stability and the feature set before worrying about speed. Being correct first then fast is what allowed other projects to build on yours IMO (IIRC Jiva was OpenEBS's first option, I might be wrong on this). Please take your time, I've been running Longhorn indirectly for like... 2 years or something without issue, and I haven't had to think about storage for that long (though I knew it wasn't necessarily optimal) -- it's been wonderful. I'm also watching that async replication thread, I think you could satisfy a bunch of people who want performance and are willing to trade absolute consistency for it (for example, running a distributed Minio cluster, not a huge deal if stuff is delayed a bit).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
