How does xvideos back up their media? - GoFuckYourself.com

I'm sure he has 100's of servers.

How do you back all this up?

Barry-xlovecam · 03-01-2017, 08:36 PM

on SSD
most use;
mysqldump
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7...p-methods.html
and with scripted rsync

Would not surprise me if they didn't honestly. I have 150,000 scenes and no backups

I agree with this. I bet they don't.

If they do backup the content it's probably on caset tapes. Seems like it'd be pretty cheap.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet...e_data_storage

Sony announced in 2014 that they had developed a tape storage technology with the highest reported magnetic tape data density, 148 Gbit/in² (23 Gbit/cm²), potentially allowing tape capacity of 185 TB.[1]

In May 2014 Fujifilm followed Sony and made an announcement that it will develop a 154 TB tape cartridge by the end of 2015, which will have the areal data density of storing 85.9 Gbit/in² (13.3 Gbit/cm²) on linear magnetic particulate tape.[2]

Lol.. Tapes... You cunts have no idea how hosting in that scale works.

Why are you afraid to explain? Afraid of being called out for being wrong ?

They need 100's of servers for load balancing of incoming traffic because each server is limited to transfer up to 500-800Mbps of data (typically) and with 100 servers your peak summary usage could be about 50Gbps at the same time.

To do some math I have visited https://www.xvideos.com/ and in most popular Amateur category they have ~105,000 videos listed mostly recorded in 360p quality and lasts ~10 mins. believe such quality is recorded with ~300Kbps quality or even less and 10 mins files size is 300 * 600 / 8 = 22Mb. To store 105,000 videos need only 22Mb * 105,000 = 2.31Tb - that is just a single hard disk drive. This is my rough estimation but anyway I don't see large numbers here.

If there is more data just use large NAS servers with several SATA drives connected or just forget about backups if data does not really matter.

It doesn't work like that. It's all cloud based.

You usually just have a storage origin, dual location (so it's 'backed up'), and the CDN delivers the content (highwinds and limelight in xvideos case).

nice to see they're bulletproof

Dmitry · 03-02-2017, 10:02 AM

Both CDN and a classic load balancing concept are good.
I am more working in webcams and simple solutions with load balanced servers gives less latency in content delivery for end users.

And I would say simple configuration with 100's of servers would be more cost efficient than CDN with 50Gbps content delivery.

Anyway data backup is not the issue here.

Theyd need hundreds of SSD drives wouldn't they?

Because that means I would have to explain CDN's, Tiered storage, Application proxys/offloads and 40/80-Gbps LAN, Site Recovery and Stretched Cluster, data protection and disaster recovery via high-speed deduplication.

.... And I am 99,5% sure that is outside your comprehension zone

Not at all outside my comprehension zone just saying none of us have first hand knowledge of XVideos specific backup structure so we are all hypothesizing.

I can understand positive fake nic trolls to pump up the board but ADDHD obsessive hateful ones are counter productive.

Boardwhore...errr Bladewire, how about you go sucks some more long time user dick and tell us more how because someone registered here 32 years ago everyone should show them some respect.

You gotta have a serious case of lockjaw to be harboring that much dick in your floppy ass cock holster.

We use lots of Intel SSD TB enterprise drives -- yes.
We have racks and racks of servers.
We produce 100's of hours of live video each day.

freecartoonporn · 03-02-2017, 10:57 PM

i have seen some pretty big companies use Tape storages.

but being 100% online site, i think cloud is better option for them.so they dont have to maintain large scale of hw .
