It would probably work fairly well for Plex as long as you ensure the encoding is correct before you load content into it. A single L5520 core would not handle video transcoding very well, although it would probably handle Plex direct stream (audio transcoding/video container change) for a single stream.
As @mikeyur says transcoding on an L5520 is going to /painful/. If its just serving, then it should be fine, there are a couple of customers on here that do that.
Mount server with SSHFS, and have plex pull from the mounted share that goes to your slot host.
Which is what I do.
Where's your box that's running Plex located? What's the delay like on indexing & streaming?
One customer for extra hardcore value, pulls his data from ObjSpace into Plex. Don't know what the config is, but says it works
Something like S3QL maybe? http://www.rath.org/s3ql-docs/about.html
I don't think its that, he is making native S3 requests for the file rather some FUSE/POSIX arbitration layer.
I'll find out
What would be the advantage of using Slot Hosting rather than the KVM resource pool in this particular case? Since S3 is taking care of all the storage needs?
He started with Slot Hosting, then added ObjSpace.
KVM resource pool was not available at that time.
Come on @MarkTurner , just activate my dedi :P
You only ordered yesterday, I don't even think Anne has reviewed everything from Saturday yet!
But I'm special
You don't need to review it :P
glusterfs also works very well for sharing data, and avoids FuseFS
