GlusterFS is a scalable network filesystem to create large, distributed storage solutions. Sakshi Bansal and Susant Palai will talk about the need for a distributed file system and give an introduction to GlusterFS. The talk will mainly focus on how GlusterFS manages distributions of files and directories through Distributed Hash Table (DHT). They will also review on some of the recently introduced key features to DHT that improve performance. Finally they will give a short demo on the working of GlusterFS.
