Learn about large-scale drive reliability tracking and data center performance optimization in this conference talk from DEF CON 33's Data Duplication Village. Explore Backblaze's open dataset that has monitored hard drive and SSD reliability across data centers since 2013, covering over 300,000 drives. Discover recent backend infrastructure upgrades including the implementation of a modular versioning system and migration to Snowflake with Trino and Iceberg technologies that enhanced data processing capabilities and failure validation processes. Examine updated Annual Failure Rate (AFR) trends organized by drive model and size, understand the unique challenges involved in SSD tracking and monitoring, and gain insights into how drive reliability data has directly contributed to performance improvements in data center operations. Understand the technical architecture behind one of the industry's most comprehensive drive reliability datasets and learn practical approaches to infrastructure monitoring at scale.
