Back in September, I attended the Kieler Linux Tage, to talk (in German) about how to manage storage on Linux using openATTIC. The presentation was recorded and the final result (in 4K) can now be viewed on YouTube. I hope you enjoy it!

Pretty nifty, a site dedicated to tutorials, workflows and a showcase for high-quality photography using Free/Open Source Software: https://pixls.us/
While virtualization makes it pretty easy to spawn up new VMs quickly (e.g. for load balancing purposes), I always felt that providing concurrent file-based access to the same data to these VMs has been somewhat cumbersome, even though it’s still a requirement for many applications that need to share data between parts of the application, […]
