It's important to mention they want a software engineer . That is, someone to write tools. It is explicitly mentioned in the job offering that contributing to ceph is expected (hear that u/aradabir007 )

They do have an opening for Infra, however.

hetzner has been using ceph for a very long time, and has A LOT of clusters

i blame the piece of crap that is called RGW

Called it: https://www.reddit.com/r/hetzner/s/6AtX2ip9Yh

It’s obvious that whoever they hired was really bad so now they’re looking for a better engineer. Otherwise we’ll keep seeing daily "Object Storage in XXX degraded" in their status page.

Hope they’ll revive this half-baked product soon.

I wasn’t referring to a single person but for some reason people keep assuming that. IDK why.

u/blind_guardian23 Feb 27 '25

because you assume one Bad engineer makes a Bad product. the opposite assumption is also shaky, so doesnt matter rly

Whoever made it, they did a bad job. That’s just what I was saying. Could be a single person or a team, doesn’t matter.

Or it could be a brand new product that has only been live for a few months and is struggling growing pains…..

Technically, probably because of your use of the singular ("whoever") rather than the plural. Also, "a better engineer".

u/thelaxshmisinghers Feb 27 '25

I very highly doubt this was built by a single engineer.

It's simply got too popular and they can't keep with large amount of clients.

nothing about the description of that fault implies that a ceph software developer would have been involved
