Scalable I/O Problem
Storage for 1000’s of active clients => lots of bandwidth
Scaling capacity through 100’s of TB and into PB
File Server model has good sharing and manageability
but it is hard to scale
Many other proprietary solutions
GPFS, CXFS, StorNext, Panasas, Sustina, Sanergy, …
Everyone has their own client
Like to have a standards based solution => pNFS
