Disk usage of the target directory is a commonly cited annoyance with Rust (and Cargo) – in the last year’s Annual Survey, it was the third most pressing issue of Rust users, right after slow compilation and subpar debugging experience. Given the “build everything from source” compilation model of Rust, and both debuginfo and incremental compilation being enabled by default in the dev Cargo profile, it is unlikely that the target directory will ever become lean and small. However, there are stil

Over the last 10 years, I’ve built several distributed systems on top of object storage, with WarpStream being the most recent. One consistent factor across all of these systems is how much time we spent solving what seems like a relatively straightforward problem: removing files from object storage that had been logically deleted either due to data expiry or compaction. I discussed this in more detail in “The Case for Shared Storage” blog post, but to briefly recap: every shared storage system

Implement Flash Attention Backend in SGLang - Basics and KV Cache April 26, 2025 Authored by Biao He Qingquan Song 0x0. Introduction In the past few weeks, we’ve implemented the Flash Attention Backend end-to-end in SGLang, which is now the default attention backend as of SGLang 0.4.6 release. Throughout this journey, we learned a lot about how Attention Backend functions in modern LLM serving engines and developed a deeper understanding of Flash Attention itself. In this series, we’ll walk

A targeted campaign exploited Server-Side Request Forgery (SSRF) vulnerabilities in websites hosted on AWS EC2 instances to extract EC2 Metadata, which could include Identity and Access Management (IAM) credentials from the IMDSv1 endpoint. Retrieving IAM credentials allows attackers to escalate their privileges and access S3 buckets or control other AWS services, potentially leading to sensitive data exposure, manipulation, and service disruption. The campaign was discovered by F5 Labs resear

For years, I’ve been thinking about how we store and access our digital files, especially photos. Everything is moving to the cloud, with complex systems/applications that abstract away what should be simple: a folder of images. I don’t want that. I want something simple. Something that doesn’t need a server, doesn’t rely on a database, and doesn’t lock me into any specific ecosystem. I want something that just works with files and folders, something that can disappear tomorrow without leaving

Grafana Loki somewhat bills itself as "Prometheus for logs", and so it's unsurprising that it started with a data model much like Prometheus. Log lines in Loki are stored with some amount of metadata in labels, just as Prometheus metrics values have labels (including the name of the metric, which is sort of a label). Unfortunately Loki made implementation choices that caused this data model to be relatively catastrophic for system logs (either syslog logs or the systemd journal). Unlike Promethe

Apache Iceberg: The Hadoop of the Modern Data Stack? Dani · Follow Published in Data Engineer Things · 6 min read · Dec 12, 2024 -- 6 Listen Share In the early 2010s, Apache Hadoop dominated the big data conversation. Organizations raced to adopt it, seeing it as the cornerstone for scalable, distributed storage and processing. Today, Apache Iceberg is emerging as a cornerstone for data lakes and lakehouses in the modern data stack. And yet, for those who lived through the “Big Data era,” a de
