Max Kalashnikov

The myth of the "commodity" server (for memory). Over the past several years, I keep stumbling upon deployment systems and such concepts as sharding which use as their raison dêtre. The ability to scale across an arbitrary number of cheap, commodity (usually 1U) servers. The implication is that larger servers either have a higher price per performance or are somehow more difficult to administer[1]. I reject both suppositions. Links to this post.

Max Kalashnikov: All about the Benjamins (originally posted to StorageMonkeys June 9, 2009)

http://blog.maxkalashnikov.com/2011/01/all-about-benjamins-originally-posted.html

All about the Benjamins (originally posted to StorageMonkeys June 9, 2009). The choice of the unit of measure of storage is interesting to me because it's otherwise tought to measure price for performance. Another issue I've had come up in conversation is reliability and/or maintenance. This Usenix paper. Belies the notion that SATA disks are any less reliable than others. With a 3-6% annualized replacement rate, that's 2-5 disks per year, or about 15% or 12 disks over 2.5 years, on an 80-disk ar...Somew...

Max Kalashnikov: "Dark" storage: wastefulness or just good engineering? (originally posted to StorageMonkeys June 24, 2009)

http://blog.maxkalashnikov.com/2011/01/dark-storage-wastefulness-or-just-good.html

Dark" storage: wastefulness or just good engineering? Originally posted to StorageMonkeys June 24, 2009). Having recently read more and more discussion about so-called dark storage, I've been reminded of something I routinely try to impress upon managers, especially clients: unless your use case is archiving, total bytes is a poor metric for storage. I suggest that short-stroking disks as a matter of course and leaving the rest purposefully "dark" is smart engineering. Suddenly, those 160GB drives lo...

Max Kalashnikov: When is it time for a senior sysadmin?

http://blog.maxkalashnikov.com/2011/04/when-is-it-time-for-senior-sysadmin.html

When is it time for a senior sysadmin? In the quest for the "perfect" startup to join, I have my own personal guidelines as to company size and growth. However, I also tend to ask questions to determine if it's too early or too late for me (as a system administrator) to be of adequate help. For a startup with the expectation of "hockey stick" style growth, I would say the right time is anywhere on the elbow part (of greatest slope change). The nearly-horizontal part means it's too early, since that c...

Max Kalashnikov: Compression at "Internet" scale (originally posted to StorageMonkeys November 22, 2009)

http://blog.maxkalashnikov.com/2011/01/compression-at-internet-scale.html

Compression at "Internet" scale (originally posted to StorageMonkeys November 22, 2009). One of the things I've learned, having been in more traditional "Enterprise" environments and "Internet" companies is that the latter have much larger scale issues, with respect to storage, by an order of magnitude or two, than the former. Assuming one wants to use the data, a solution must decompress at least as fast as it compresses. I haven't run into this as a problem, since the readily available algorithms e...

Max Kalashnikov: Virtualization for databases (bad idea)

http://blog.maxkalashnikov.com/2011/02/originally-in-response-to-this-excerpt.html

Virtualization for databases (bad idea). Originally in response to this (excerpt of a) discussion on LinkedIn:. I think this is a LINUX issue! Because in linux the I/O is buffered or delegated to a proccess. When you install Postgres or any DB, Postgres tell to the OS that it can't wait to do the I/O, it must be done inmediattly. But what happens in a virtualized environment? The real problem is that virtualization is fundamentally flawed. What is an operating system for, in the first place? One of my gr...

MaxKapital The Hunt for Hidden Value : ) This blog may (or may not) be of interest to investors in equity markets. Whether it is or is not, know that this site is mainly for me. Stuff on it may be wrong, and you should not rely on it, or even take it seriously. Saturday, May 16, 2015. Sensex: Pump Or Dump? Did the Sensex just rally off a very decent entry point when it declined to almost 26.5K recently? 160; I’d say yes.  Are the odds of a return to this level or below likely? Posted by Shiv Kapoor.
