| Using SeaweedFS as part of the startup OroraTech where we are processing large amounts of infrared and visual satellite data to detect wildfires worldwide. Along with the actual hotspot detections we are generating large amounts of prerendered tile data (Slippy Maps) from the near realtime satellite images.| We were using AWS S3 for this purpose while we were part of the AWS activate program, but after that program ran out we needed a scalable solution to handle our rapidly increasing S3 costs (400$/day mainly caused by the number of PUT operations, 40TB in 1 billion objects in the end). | Right now running two identical dedicated servers with 160TB storage each for the staging and prod deployments of the tile storage. On these servers SeaweedFS is deployed through docker-compose and with a caddy 2 reverse proxy in front of it. This setup should be sufficient for us for quite some time, but really like the potential for scaling to a distributed deployment in the future.|

| replaced ceph with a seaweedfs under the docker registry in production | Under the registry half a million files. Not big but have intensive exchange. | Killer feature of seaweedfs is that it disign like S3 in yandex and can work in k8s and spread between data centers. Ceph has a bad design in the case of using a huge number of small files over 10 million, cluster recovery takes several days. The next step is to use instead of Glusterfs, which is now barely alive and is bent from 10 million files. |
| we use seaweedfs embedded in our AI products that are deployed on client site (usually AirGapped because of the sensitivity of the data)| clusters ranging from 3-10 servers (and now startiting to get bigger and bigger), usually retaining 7-14 days video and 30-60 days of thumbnails | we comared CEPH & Minio, we checked deployment procedure & maintenance and especially performance of writes and especially single server performance and easy scale out. we went and found that seaweedfs always won. we mainly write intensive and rarely read (usually reading as soon as write, so no real disk access) and 95% of the data is not missing critical, so the easiness of seaweedfs and the amazing performance (all writes are sequential as possible) |
