I'm so glad we have cloud managed storage like EFS / EBS so we don't have to deal with this stuff...

Sure, if you enjoy paying $80/TB-month (before replication or backups). If you're operating at a scale that justifies running a datacenter, EBS is basically a non-starter.

$80 is nothing compared to an infra engineer salary of +$5000 a month.

And you will need one. permamently. because this stuff breaks in so many spectacular ways... i.e splitbrain. a joy to resolve.

Per petabyte, we are talking $80,000 per month.

I love baremetal but I agree, distributed storage is hell. I found it slightly harder to sleep at night managing a prod Ceph cluster.

I love to deal with stuff like that.
