Christoph Hellwig has announced the initial public release of XRAID—declustered parity RAID that is integrated into XFS.
The two primary aims of XRAID are to support parity RAID on zoned devices like SMR hard drives, and to provide a fast RAID implementation without inherent data integrity problems. XRAID, just like zoned XFS also works on conventional hard drives and SSDs. Optimizing for SSD performance has not been a focus, but even without that, writes are up to 20 times faster than mdrai…

Docker and the CNCF will partner on an open spec to make agent permissions portable
Docker Sandbox Kits let you package an AI agent together with exactly what it is allowed to do, so anyone can pull the same agent with the same limits, review changes to those limits, and enforce them. Now, Docker has published the Docker Sandbox Kit Spec, the open specification behind Kits, under Apache 2.0 and is committing to contributing the spec to the Cloud Native Computing Foundation for neutral go…

Nine times out of ten, it’s not the network, and it’s not your storage backend. It’s the algorithm deciding where to cut your data into pieces.
Every deduplication system works the same way: split data into pieces, hash each piece, keep one copy per distinct hash. A piece is named after its own content, so two identical pieces are, by definition, the same piece. Snapshot a…
