FhGFS - Parallel Filesystem Performance at the Maximum

SESSION: Storage and File Systems II

EVENT TYPE: Exhibitor Forums

TIME: 2:30PM - 3:00PM

Presenter(s):Christian Mohrbacher

ROOM:155-C

ABSTRACT:
FhGFS is the parallel file system from the Fraunhofer Competence Center for High Performance Computing. It has been designed to deliver highest performance and to provide the scalability, that is required to run today's most demanding HPC applications. Large systems and metadata intensive applications can greatly profit from the support for distributed metadata and from the avoidance of architectural bottlenecks. Furthermore, Fraunhofer sets a high value on ease of use and flexibility, which makes it possible to run the filesystem in a lot of different scenarios. The software has proven to be reliable in installations of all kinds and sizes, ranging from a handful of nodes to current Top500 systems. This talk will give an overview on FhGFS and demonstrate the advantages of its modern design by showing latest benchmarking results.
