This article summarizes the InfiniFS paper, detailing how its access‑content decoupling, speculative path resolution, and optimistic metadata caching enable efficient metadata handling for data‑center‑scale file systems supporting billions of files.
This article compares 3FS, vePFS, and CloudFS across metadata and data planes, presents detailed benchmark results for AI training scenarios, analyzes architectural trade‑offs, and draws insights for future cloud‑native file storage development.
This article analyzes the core design goals, architectural models, scalability, high‑availability, consistency, security, and performance considerations of modern distributed file systems, comparing classic solutions like NFS and GFS with newer approaches such as Ceph.
This article surveys common distributed file systems such as GFS, HDFS, Lustre, Ceph, GridFS, MogileFS, TFS, and FastDFS, explaining their origins, key characteristics, typical use cases, and practical considerations for large‑scale storage.
This article provides a concise overview of several widely-used distributed file systems—including Lustre, Hadoop, MogileFS, FreeNAS, FastDFS, NFS, OpenAFS, MooseFS, pNFS, and GoogleFS—highlighting their origins, key features, supported platforms, and typical use cases.
