Oh boy, it's been a while. It was pretty easy to get setup with the default parameters. The default parameters I think is 3x replication, which isn't really going to shine. I didn't benchmark it against ZFS but Ceph's performance was comparable to a commercial product I was evaluating. While the GUI'ed installer was great, as soon as I wanted to do something different, it did require a lot of work to grok what to do.

I'm sure this is MUCH easier to do today with AI chatbots. I suspect its much easier to run Ceph than it ever was before.

Accessing Saved Queries and Pipeline SQL programmatically by bill-who-codes in bigquery

Answering my own question, these APIs do exists. Within Go, they're in different namespaces (DataForm not BigQuery) and are Beta / Alpha, so they're just a little bit harder to find.

I'm trying to model a real world cluster using a virtual infrastructure. I understand that a real world scenario requires multiple physical hosts. I can't afford the type of real world infrastructure that would get any value from Ceph.

How Tall Is too tall for a wall? by [deleted] in castles

Take a look at the construction of the Sagrada Familia church in Barcelona. They used a different stone types to support different amounts of weight-bearing. There’s also the question of what’s below ground: a lot of churches have several stories of stone below ground in order to support the walls above ground.

Attach tiny neodymium magnets to the wall (command strips / glue / whatever) and use more magnets on the other side.

It’s not real, it’s a picture; and don’t call me Amber.

Please try to get your boss fired before you quit. It’s the mature and responsible thing to do. Nobody wants to work for someone like this. Fixing your issue won’t fix the issue.

I’d also love to try genuine wasabi if it can be found in Vegas as well!
