  1. My https://github.com/uroni/hs5 is designed for this use case. One notable thing is that compared to MinIO (and others) it does not store the objects as individual files. I also have DuckDB directly integrated. The readme has a comparison…
  2. …needs to mark all the pages as clean before commit, so same effect there. I fixed this for 0.9 here https://github.com/uroni/hs5/tree/main/external/lmdb . Will have to investigate if it is improved with 1.0, or if I need to redo the…
  3. In my similar project (s3 compatible single-node storage) https://github.com/uroni/hs5 I do use proper fsync for data and metadata durability. But it can be turned of via switch. It is a pet peeve of mine that the defaults should always be…
  4. I build https://github.com/uroni/hs5 as replacement for single node use with a focus on high performance. I list other alternatives in the README there. Some short version: Ceph: Robust, widely used for multi-node deployments. Would…

  8. I've been working on https://github.com/uroni/hs5 as a replacement with similar goals to early minio. The core is stable at this point, but the user/policy management and the web interface is still in the works.

  9. I'm working on something that might be suited for this use-case at https://github.com/uroni/hs5 (not ready for production yet). It would still need a resilience/cache layer like ZFS, though.
