Abstracts

An open-source storage from LINBIT (maintainers of DRBD). It’s fast and fault-tolerant, has a lot of features. It looks like Kuberentes but for block devices. How does it work? How to configure and debug it?

In this presentation, I’ll show you LINSTOR, an open-source storage from LINBIT (maintainers of DRBD).

The DRBDv9 changed course from “‎one large fault-tolerant device for all”‎ to “separate DRBD devices per virtual machines”‎. Now it supports diskless replicas, snapshots, encryption and much more. Everything can be orchestrated via Kubernetes-like API.
