  1. DuckDB Labs released #DuckLake 1.0 - a data lake format that stores table metadata in a SQL database, rather than spreading it across object storage files.

    Key features:
    • catalog-stored small updates
    • improved sorting and partitioning
    • compatibility with Iceberg-style data features

  7. I just updated my standard data storage stack for transport and archival . Earlier I used 7-zip basically for everything. But now I’ve switched to more modern stack, files are now ###.tar.zst.age yeah, tar + Zstandard compression + age encryption. And in case it’s something really important then there is par2 on top of that. #datastorage #dataarchival #compression #encryption

  9. #AWS introduced #S3Files, letting users mount an Amazon S3 bucket and access data through a standard file system interface.

    Applications can read and write files with standard file operations, while the system translates them into S3 requests - allowing compute services to work directly with S3-stored data.

  10. 🚨BREAKING: #Backblaze apparently decided that "backup" now means "oops, not your important stuff." 🎉 Who needs OneDrive or Dropbox anyway? 😜 Congratulations, you've officially been backing up air for a decade! 🏆

  11. I write insane amounts of data to my scratch drives (AI models, VMs, you name it). Currently, that is an SSD. I have worn a few below 100%. And since I don't have enough kidneys to sell for more SSDs, I'm trying something kind of retro.

    I ordered a USB 3.2 DAS, and will load it with 4x 1TB WD VelociRaptor HDDs. This in RAID0 should give me near 1 gigabyte per second, plenty for the purpose. HDDs don't "wear out" from writing. (EDIT: as fast).

    And the sound will be splendid 😁 Stay tuned.

    EDIT: It's working fantastic! tech.lgbt/@Lydie/1163071760956

  12. TechSpot: Etching the world’s smallest QR code in ceramic pushes data storage to the nanoscale. “A team of researchers at TU Wien recently announced that they have ‘etched’ the smallest QR code ever on a ceramic film. Covering an area of just 1.98 square micrometers, the code is smaller than many bacteria and features pixels only 49 nanometers in size.”

  13. Microsoft reports excellent progress on attempts to encode data in glass using femtosecond lasers.

    Project Silica is developing technology that could preserve information for 10,000 years. The system creates groups of symbols, which are then encoded as tiny deformations, or voxels into glass with a laser.

    By splitting the laser into four independent beams writing at the same time, the team say the technology can record 65.9m bits per second. Microsoft claims they could store 4.84TB of data in a 12 sq cm piece of fused silica glass, 2mm deep – about the same amount of information that is held in 2m printed books.

  14. However, I can't help but feel sceptical about the article posted. It sounds too much like a #salesPitch. I'm especially bothered by point 4 ‐ #cloudFirst. #CloudServices have plenty of sensible #useCases. However, for many businesses, the number drops radically once #BusinessObjectives are considered. #DataStorage is often best done #onprem, in many cases, purely from a financial perspective [1]. Google seems to hint at this approach introducing security issues. /2

  15. In an age of AI-washing, most IT vendors' product updates sound the same on the surface: "Now with agentic AI!" It can be tough to discern when something truly different hits the market. Some analyst friends helped me figure that out this week, though, in the wake of IBM's #FlashSystem refresh - now with agentic AI! -- what's actually new here, how does it fit into broader industry trends and compare with all the competitors making similar claims?

  17. Sometimes writing about #datastorage again is a really weird Twilight-Zone feeling, but other times it's just like riding a bike. :)
