When CoreOS abandoned btrfs, it made me seriously start to consider the Joyent SDC stack, above all else just because ZFS can answer the storage question in a way that seemingly nothing on Linux will be able to provide in the near future

I really, really like the Joyent SDC stack... It seems like a really nice solution. Though I wish they had the equivalent of S3 or Azure blob storage. Having to run your own VMs for archive storage seems like a pain, especially relative to the cost/amount of storage you get per VM.

Manta is part of SDC and implements a S3-like API (plus distributed map-reduce data processing).

[themgt]

Right. Ceph is what I've been using for that, and I'm assuming it'll be doable either in Docker or Linux KVM on SDC

ClusterHQ is working on openzfs for containers too, on Linux.

[ferrantim]

Yep, and we think ZFS on Linux is ready real production use https://clusterhq.com/blog/state-zfs-on-linux/

[raincom]

well, micro services Paas does not care much about the storage: ephemeral storage is good. And you can re deploy the app with a click.

[smarterclayton]

As part of OpenShift and Kubernetes we're building stack integration for Gluster, Ceph, NFS, iSCSI, and others into the core runtime environment (so you can on-demand provision storage at a cluster level). Micro services may not care much about storage, but everything else does.

https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/kubernetes/blob/maste... captures the first draft of it, but there's a lot more work going on to let you bind storage on demand to Docker containers at a cluster level.
