We bid adieu to 2025 with a post detailing how files are stored by Debusine.
Read about how abstractions for low-level file storage and object collections in Debusine allows storage to be scalable beyond a single filesystem and be highly available. It also goes into detail about how data duplication is minimized using content-addressed storage.

How files are stored by Debusine
Debusine is a tool designed for Debian developers and Operating System developers in general. This post describes how Debusine stores and manages files. Debusine has been designed to run a network of “workers” that can perform various “tasks” that consume and produce “artifacts”. The artifact itself is a collection of files structured into an ontology of artifact types. This generic architecture should be suited to many sorts of build & CI problems.
