MooseFS is a fault tolerant, network distributed file system. Created by Core Technology, Inc. MooseFS is a fault-tolerant distributed file system. It spreads data over several physical locations(servers), which are visible to user as one resource. For standard file operations MooseFSacts as any other Unix-alike filesystem:• Hierarchical structure (directory tree)• Stores POSIX file attributes (permissions, last access and modification times)• Supports special files (block and character devices, pipes and sockets)• Symbolic links (file names pointing to target files, not necessarily on MooseFS) and hardlinks (different names of files that refer to the same data on MooseFS)• Access to the file system can be limited based on IP address and/or passwordDistinctive features of MooseFS are:• High reliability (several copies of the data can be stored on separate physical machines)• Capacity is dynamically expandable by adding new computers/disks• Deleted files are retained for a configurable period of time (a file system level ”trash bin”)• Coherent snapshots of files, even while the file is being written/accessed…
