I mentioned a while back that I was going to be playing with the S3 Infinidisk Product. What I found in my testing was that this product is not prime time ready. There was a nasty bug which caused data to be lost if the mv command was used. The scripts themselves were unintuitive. They required fancy-pants nohupping or screening to use long term. Oh, and a database definitely will not work on top of this FS. It seems obvious in retrospect, but I wanted to be sure. InnoDB wont even build its initial files much less operated on the FS. To top it all off, My pre-sales support question was never even so much as acknowledged.
No, I think I’ll be leaving this product alone for now and sticking with clever uses of s3sync and s3cmd, thanks.
