Some search terms (try "iscsi") break the site due to JS errors:

    Uncaught TypeError: e.description is undefined
    e https://storageclass.info/storageclasses/:6
    filterStoragesClasses https://storageclass.info/storageclasses/:6
    oninput https://storageclass.info/storageclasses/:6

2 storageclasses:6:204943 e https://storageclass.info/storageclasses/:6 filter self-hosted:195 filterStoragesClasses https://storageclass.info/storageclasses/:6 oninput https://storageclass.info/storageclasses/:6

Additionally, https://plausible.io/js/script.js is blocked by adblockers, and the search breaks completely then.

Uh! Thanks for mentioning. Also wasn't aware that plausible is blocked, thanks for the hint, even though I wonder why it breaks the search. I'll figure it out. Thanks again.

Does anyone have good experiences with a replicated storage CSI which can run on commodity hardware?

I tried out OpenEBS Replicated — and it is promising — but it doesn’t really seem mature yet. Im a bit scared to put production critical data into it.

What problem are you trying to solve with replicated storage?

A lot of times, finding a solution further up the stack or settling for backups ends up being more robust and reliable. Many folks have been burnt by all the fun failure scenarios of replicated filesystems.

Guess you want a block storage?

My experience is that OpenEBS and Longhorn are cool and new and simplified, but that I would only trust my life to Rook/Ceph. If it's going into production, I'd say look at https://rook.io/ - Ceph can do both block and filesystem volumes.

While this may be useful to some folks, it appears to be content marketing for https://www.simplyblock.io/, FYI.

I build a platform which hosts a few thousand services and tens of thousands of nodes. Currently, those services need to each internally manage replicating data and need to be aware of failure domains (host, rack, data center).

What I would like to do is develop a system where applications just need to request replicated volumes which span a specific failure domain and push that logic down to the platform.

Thanks, I will look at Rook.
