  1. The Next Evolution of PVFS OrangeFS

  2. PVFS2 Brought Us…. • Modular Architecture • Support for Standard out of the box kernels • Distributed Meta-data • Scalability • Direct MPI Support • Hardware Independence • Stateless Operations

  3. OrangeFS… (Current 2.8.4) Added… • Commercial Grade support (from Omnibond) • Dedicated Professional Development Team • Improved stability • improved meta-data performancefor better small file throughput • replicated data for immutable files • Supports SSD for Metadata Still… • Empower Research • Community Driven • 100% Open Source

  4. OrangeFS… (This Year 2.8.5 & 2.8.6) Will Bring… • Distributed Directories • Based on / Derived from Giga+ • Capability Based Security • Enhanced Client Libraries • Can preload for applications that use standard POSIX calls • Client Side Caching (Single System Coherence) • Windows Client (with Certificate based Authentication) • WebDavLibrary (mod_dav_orangefs) • Enhanced performance Counters and Debugging Tools

  5. Where is OrangeFS Going

  6. Similar Requirements Differing Reasons Exascale Enterprise / otherResearch Areas • Data / IO growth • Resilience • Security • Management • Decade old problem on an exponential path • Something is always down • Distributed User-base • Mass System Management • Glimpse of the HEC Space • Up-Time • Shared File Systems • Ease of Administration

  7. OrangeFS-Next… • 128bit UUID Handles • Data Replication • Lazy, On Commit, Continuous • Data Tiering • Hardware Life-Cycle activities (keep the data online) • Self Connecting Storage Nodes • Ultimately Storage nodes will not need to know about all other nodes (~only ones it shares data with) • Nodes will need to understand locality, classes of server, replica info • Background self healing processes

  8. PXFS Sterling, Ligon • ParalleX FS • Similar to PGAS (Partitioned Global Address Space) • Active Messages (Sending Message Invokes Thread) • Futures Synchronization • Integrate the file system • Blur the line between memory and File System • Highly Object Oriented (C++) • Exascale Think of Bucky-Compute-Balls that can be flung to the data it needs
