Stratis Is Red Hat's Plan For Next-Gen Linux Storage Without Btrfs

A guy from g-technology (company owned by WD, the hard drive manufacturer) has subscribed (a bit clumsily) to btrfs mailing list. That company makes NAS, external drives and bigass RAID storage boxes on thunderbolt/USB3/esata.
It seems their NAS (GRack 12) is using btrfs on 48 to 120 TB of storage (or more if using the extension enclosure). I have strong suspicions that it has Apple-grade pricing as I can assemble a similar system for much less $$$, but at least it has Apple-like looks too.

I would imagine that the server vs. workstation defaults will also be true to RHEL 8.
XFS for servers and ext4 for desktops / workstations.

Fucking hell... have we not learned anything? You need a goddamn design!
EDIT: Apologies for necro, but I only frequent these forums when I want to look at the 'underbelly'. FWIW.

Does the fact that btrfs is in Fedora now mean that RedHat still believes in btrfs, it just didn't want to maintain it for RHEL because of the amount of work needed for backporting/maintenance of btrfs (as was suggested on HERE by a former RedHat btrfs employee)?Last edited by mystiquewolf; 24 April 2021, 02:19 PM.
