GPFS (General Parallel File System) is a high-performance clustered file system developed by IBM that can be deployed in shared disk or shared-nothing distributed parallel modes. It was created to address the growing imbalance between increasing CPU, memory, and network speeds, and the relatively slower growth of disk drive speeds. GPFS provides high scalability, availability, and advanced data management features like snapshots and replication. It is used extensively by large companies and supercomputers due to its ability to handle large volumes of data and high input/output workloads in distributed, parallel environments.

This document provides an overview of various data storage technologies including RAID, DAS, NAS, and SAN. It discusses RAID levels like RAID 0, 1, 5 which provide data striping and redundancy. Direct attached storage (DAS) connects directly to servers but cannot be shared, while network attached storage (NAS) uses file sharing protocols over IP networks. Storage area networks (SAN) use dedicated storage networks like Fibre Channel and iSCSI to provide block-level access to consolidated storage. The key is choosing the right solution based on capacity, performance, scalability, availability, data protection needs, and budget.VMware HCI solutions - 2020-01-16

The GFS architecture consists of a single master node that manages metadata, and multiple chunkservers that store file data sliced into fixed-size chunks. Each chunk is replicated on multiple servers for reliability. The master handles tasks like chunk leasing, migration, and garbage collection.PostgreSQL Portland Performance Practice Project - Database Test 2 Filesystem...

The document discusses the performance evaluation of various Linux filesystems using PostgreSQL and outlines a project conducted at Portland State University. It emphasizes the importance of testing with your own hardware and filesystems, providing detailed results of benchmarks, configuration guidelines, and insights into RAID and I/O performance. The findings highlight that different filesystems and RAID configurations significantly impact performance, and users should consider their specific setups for tuning PostgreSQL effectively.Google file system GFS

Google File System is a distributed file system developed by Google to provide efficient and reliable access to large amounts of data across clusters of commodity hardware. It organizes clusters into clients that interface with the system, master servers that manage metadata, and chunkservers that store and serve file data replicated across multiple machines. Updates are replicated for fault tolerance, while the master and chunkservers work together for high performance streaming and random reads and writes of large files.Google file system

The document describes Google File System (GFS), which is a distributed file system developed by Google to store huge files across inexpensive commodity servers. GFS is fault-tolerant, scalable, and optimized for large streaming reads and appends. It works by dividing files into fixed-size chunks that are replicated and stored across multiple chunkservers, while a master server manages metadata and chunk placement.XFS.ppt

This document provides an overview of journaling file systems and specifically discusses XFS, JFS, and other journaling file systems. It explains that journaling file systems maintain a journal that tracks metadata operations, allowing the file system to restart quickly after an unexpected shutdown by replaying the journal instead of running a lengthy integrity check. The document then describes the design and features of the XFS and JFS journaling file systems, including their use of asynchronous logging, extent-based allocation, support for large file systems and fast crash recovery times.8 1-os file system implementation

This document discusses various aspects of file system implementation in operating systems. It covers file system structures, directory implementation methods, allocation techniques like contiguous, linked and indexed allocation, free space management using bitmaps and linked lists, performance optimization using caching, and recovery methods like journaling. It also describes network file systems like NFS, which allow remote access to files across networked machines in a transparent manner using client-server architecture and remote procedure calls.Cluster filesystems

The document summarizes Marian Marinov's presentation on cluster filesystems at the 10th annual Linux User Group Bulgaria meeting. The presentation covered single disk, shared disk, and distributed disk filesystems as well as shared storage solutions like DRBD, iSCSI, and AoE. Specific cluster filesystems discussed included OCFS2, GFS2, PVFS2, and GFarm. Configuration examples and questions from the audience were also mentioned.Seminar Report on Google File System
Seminar Report on Google File SystemVishal Polley
?
The document is a seminar report on the Google File System (GFS), detailing its design, architecture, and operational algorithms, submitted as part of a Bachelor of Technology degree requirement. The GFS is a scalable distributed file system created by Google to efficiently manage large data applications using inexpensive commodity hardware, emphasizing fault tolerance, high availability, and optimized performance for large files. Key design features include a hierarchical structure, chunk-based storage, and a master-server model for metadata management.Network File System in Distributed Computing

NFS (Network File System) was developed by SUN Microsystems in 1984 to allow users to access and share files located on remote computers over a network. It builds on the ONC RPC system and uses a stateless protocol to store files on a network in a way that is easy to recover from failures. NFS is commonly used with UNIX systems but also supports other platforms. It has gone through several versions to support larger files, security improvements, and a stateful protocol in later versions. NFS allows applications on client computers to access and manipulate files on a server computer in a way that is transparent to the user.Ad

- 2. Why GPFS is needed?
- 3. Growth Rate of Components ? ? CPU speed performance has increased 8 to 10 times. ? ? DRAM speed performance has increased 7 to 9 times. ? ? Network speed performance has increased 100 times. ? ? Bus speed performance has increased 20 times. ? ? But Hard disk drive (HDD) speed performance has increased only 1.2 times.
- 4. Three Important Functions of Enterprise Storage ? ? Store data ? ? Protect data from being lost ? ? Feed data to the computer¡¯s processors (so they can keep doing work)
- 5. Existing Solutions Inability ? DAS, NAS, SAN [alone] ? Many data centers have become victims of ¡°filer-sprawl¡± ? Data administration and management (such as migration, backups, archiving) costs to skyrocket! ? I/O performance & application workflow
- 6. What is GPFS ? The General Parallel File System (GPFS) is a high performance clustered file system. It can be deployed in shared disk or shared nothing distributed parallel modes. ?
