AWS deleted my 10-year account and all data without warning

AWS permanently nuked a 10-year customer account—data, backups, everything—after a payment verification failed. That alone broke their own 90-day retention policy. It gets messier. Looks like an internal script meant to run as a “dry run” went full send in production. Blame a Java CLI parsing edge .. read more

Does platform engineering make sense for startups?

Platform engineering isn't just for the big dogs anymore. Startups are picking it up as astrategic edge, building tight, high-leverage tooling from day one. Think:templated CI/CD pipelines, plug-and-play infra modules, zero-handoff onboarding. Done right, these early bets smooth the path and keep d.. read more

Who does the unsexy but essential work for open source?

Oracle led the line-count race in the Linux 6.1 kernel release—beating out flashier open source names. Most of its work isn’t headline material. It’s deep-core stuff: memory management tweaks, block device updates, the quiet machinery real systems run on... read more  

Who does the unsexy but essential work for open source?
Pelagia is a Kubernetes controller that provides all-in-one management for Ceph clusters installed by Rook. It delivers two main features:

Aggregates all Rook Custom Resources (CRs) into a single CephDeployment resource, simplifying the management of Ceph clusters.
Provides automated lifecycle management (LCM) of Rook Ceph OSD nodes for bare-metal clusters. Automated LCM is managed by the special CephOsdRemoveTask resource.

It is designed to simplify the management of Ceph clusters in Kubernetes installed by Rook.

Being solid Rook users, we had dozens of Rook CRs to manage. Thus, one day we decided to create a single resource that would aggregate all Rook CRs and deliver a smoother LCM experience. This is how Pelagia was born.

It supports almost all Rook CRs API, including CephCluster, CephBlockPool, CephFilesystem, CephObjectStore, and others, aggregating them into a single specification. We continuously work on improving Pelagia's API, adding new features, and enhancing existing ones.

Pelagia collects Ceph cluster state and all Rook CRs statuses into single CephDeploymentHealth CR. This resource highlights of Ceph cluster and Rook APIs issues, if any.

Another important thing we implemented in Pelagia is the automated lifecycle management of Rook Ceph OSD nodes for bare-metal clusters. This feature is delivered by the CephOsdRemoveTask resource, which automates the process of removing OSD disks and nodes from the cluster. We are using this feature in our everyday day-2 operations routine.
