@ -10,14 +10,13 @@ a state-of-the-art, multi-use, highly available, and performant file store for
|
||||
a variety of applications, including traditional use-cases like shared home
|
||||
directories, HPC scratch space, and distributed workflow shared storage.
|
||||
|
||||
CephFS achieves these goals through the use of some novel architectural
|
||||
choices. Notably, file metadata is stored in a separate RADOS pool from file
|
||||
data and served via a resizable cluster of *Metadata Servers*, or **MDS**,
|
||||
which may scale to support higher throughput metadata workloads. Clients of
|
||||
the file system have direct access to RADOS for reading and writing file data
|
||||
blocks. For this reason, workloads may linearly scale with the size of the
|
||||
underlying RADOS object store; that is, there is no gateway or broker mediating
|
||||
data I/O for clients.
