Hacker News Post - Who is hiring?

QUOBYTE | Santa Clara, CA and Berlin, Germany | Full-time / Remote | ONSITE | https://www.quobyte.com/

At Quobyte we are working on a highly scalable and fault-tolerant software storage system built around a parallel file system core. Our customers use us for large scale AI and HPC clusters in the enterprise and research, k8s and OpenStack infrastructures, and as a scalable backend for SaaS products. There are Quobyte clusters which span tens of thousands of machines and slurp 100s of GB/s!

Under the hood, we have built a full-stack fault-tolerant parallel file system, with everything from kernel development over our own replicated database system design to distributed algorithms (Paxos!) and performance. In short: lots of real-world challenging and fun problems!

We work as a highly efficient engineering team, ship frequently, do code reviews, and have lots of unit and integration testing. If you’re passionate about systems, we might be the right place for you!

Berlin, Germany:

* Infrastructure/Support Engineer (40-80k EUR)

Most compressible file formats are already compressed, and with compression you lose efficient non-sequential IO.

German government and courts are as opportunistic as everywhere else. German government ignores EU laws (ex: water protection), its own courts (ex: air pollution court orders, time record keeping for teachers) and worker protection (ex: false self employment of music teachers).

Europe does not need more open source, it needs its own healthy and competitive software industry.

It doesn't matter if the email platform a government uses is open source, but it should be able to pick a local alternative. It does not matter if the e-ID or payments app is running on an open source mobile OS, but it should be possible to run it on a non-US one.

Policy may help the European software industry, at least governments should actively work on getting away from their Microsoft addiction. Open source may be one of the options, but it is not the right model for all types of software.

Blindly preferring open source may kill otherwise viable local software businesses.

Queues tend to be always full or always empty (see queueing theory). There is no steady state with a half full queue.

For NVMe in particular you will have a hard time filling their queues. Your perceived performance is mostly latency, as there is hardly an application that can submit enough concurrent requests.

Docker swarm is great on single servers. Apparently still no such thing for Podman.

Even if the tech is not top notch, Docker got a few things right on product management.

Indeed, with the tmpfs move (tmp in RAM) however it sounds like they have more Desktops in mind.

You don't want to use RAM for tmp files for which you probably can't do capacity planning, and you don't to enable swap on server either.

Ordered one in spring. Delivery time was pushed from July to September. Apparently they had a bug in the HDMI output.
