Storage & Filesystems
Presentation
Lustre has been selected as the main distributed file system solution in IHEP for more then four years. The Lustre File System at IHEP is currently at a scale of 2.2 PB capacity, 50 OSSs and 500+ OSTs, running Lustre 1.8.6. The file system which was built on top of commodity disk arrays, servers and 10 Gbit Ethernet, provides 24 GB/s bandwidth for five high energy physics experiments.

Presentation
Since March 2012, GSI is running a second Lustre file system. The younger cluster introduced a
host of new technologies, problems and challenges. Step-by-step migration of both data and hardware
from the old to the newer system is under way. This younger installation is the current work horse for
GSI HPC, but also provides experience and knowledge base for future projects coming with FAIR....

Presentation
A working group has been investigating alternatives to Castor for disk only storage at the RAL Tier 1. Requirements have been gathered and we are now deploying test instances of a number of technologies. This talk will discuss both the reasons for the project, requirements and the current status and findings.

Presentation
Currently there is a growing interest in the area of cloud based infrastructures (either private
or public) to implement data centres in a more scalable and manageable way and to include
external resources in a more flexible way. In this context the CERN DSS group together with
participation from IHEP and Huawei have investigated several cloud storage implementation
with respect to their...

Storage & Filesystems
Presentation
There are three major areas that of this presentation. First, a trend in storage systems away from tape and Posix to alternative systems that favor scale, latency tolerance, and the integration of storage backup processes including device and system trends. Second, how the features of the OpenStack/Swift and Huawei storage system meet these trends. Third, a little about the testing that has...

Presentation
In this contribution we present our experience building a prototype of an open source software system for operating online file repositories of extensible capacity.
Built on the well-understood client-server architecture model, the system can be used by computing centers looking at solutions for providing online storage services for their individual users. The client-side component runs on...
