🚀 Building Unbreakable Cloud Storage
Failures happen — disks, nodes, even entire systems. But cloud storage must never go down.
In this session, Philipp Reisner (CEO and founder of LINBIT) breaks down how LINSTOR + DRBD work together to deliver high-availability storage — from top-level architecture to deep replication and failover mechanics.

How was your summer? Hope it was a great mix of fun and getting things done — ours definitely was! 👀
The TIC team had an amazing time at WeAreDevelopers in Berlin, the BLISS Speaker Series Summer 2025 meetup, and the Founder Meet & Greet meetup! 🔥
Still buzzing from it all. Were you there too?

🧠 How clean is your Git history?
🚨 Could your CI/CD pipeline catch more issues before production?
The latest Behind the Mic newsletter is out on LinkedIn — featuring real-world Git workflows and smarter CI/CD strategies straight from the TIC 2025 speaker.
Whether you’re wrangling messy histories or streamlining deployments, this one's worth a read 👉https://t.co/vjd0kdfTfm
New on LinkedIn 🔥
How do you manage secrets in CI/CD without slowing delivery?
SOPS vs. HashiCorp Vault, backups, Zero Trust — what actually works in practice?
And can you run VMs on Kubernetes without breaking workflows or network connections?
These are real questions from real engineers — and the answers are packed with hard‑won, practical lessons.

🆕 Just dropped: a fresh edition of the Tech Internals Conf newsletter — and it's packed with answers to your questions.
👀 Ever wondered:
- When not to use S3?
- How SeaweedFS compares to Ceph?
- Why OAuth breaks even when you're sure you did everything right?
Our latest issue features in-depth Q&As with Chris Lu (#Roblox) and Warren Parad (#Authress) — both straight from the stage at TIC 2025. They answered real questions from the audience on scalable storage, metadata limits, passwordless auth, and more.

Great turnout yesterday — 36 engineers joined us for the TIC meetup.
Andrei Kvapil walked us through LINSTOR (Kubernetes vibes, but for block devices), and David Leimroth shared practical lessons from running self-hosted Kubernetes in the real world.
Plenty of great questions, sharp insights, and lively discussions — thanks to everyone who came and stayed to chat. See you next time!
📅 Join us on June 17 in #Berlin for a special in-person meetup:
“LINSTOR Is Like Kubernetes, But for Block Devices & Power to the Cluster: Self-Hosting in the Real World”
This free meetup is designed for cloud-native engineers, DevOps professionals, and system architects who want to go deeper into self-hosting practices and modern open-source infrastructure tools.
🧠 What to expect?
🔹 Talk 1: “LINSTOR Is Like Kubernetes, But for Block Devices”
→ A deep dive into LINSTOR, an open-source storage orchestrator from the maintainers of DRBD. Learn how it works, how to configure it, and how it brings Kubernetes-like control to your block storage.
🔹 Talk 2: “Power to the Cluster: Self-Hosting in the Real World”
→ Lessons from real-world self-hosted Kubernetes clusters: networking pitfalls, storage challenges, high-availability myths, and survival tips for on-prem ops.
🎟 Attendance is free, but seats are limited — register now https://t.co/TKEhBuJ3G5
See you there! 🚀
Tech Internals Conf 2025 brought together over 250 engineers and tech leads in Berlin for a full day of smart talks, real conversations, and rooftop networking.
We explored infrastructure, storage, and security — not just in theory, but through practical stories, production lessons, and honest Q&A. And of course, the best insights often came during hallway chats and casual breaks.
Thanks to everyone who joined, asked sharp questions, and shared what’s really happening in their systems. You made the event what it was.
The brilliant minds behind Tech Internals Conf 2025! 🙌
Our incredible speakers and the team who made it all happen — thank you for the knowledge, energy, and all the behind-the-scenes work.
