Abstract
Cloud computing nowadays is the cornerstone for all the business applications, mainly because of its high fault tolerance characteristic. High resilience and availability typical of cloud-native applications are achieved using different technologies. Regarding the file system, the main fault tolerant application examples are distributed file systems, such as HDFS, Ceph, GlusterFS, and XtremeFS. These file systems have different architectures and deployment models than the Traditional Distributed File Systems (TDFSs), such as NFS. The primary goal of this work is to analyze and compare different Cloud Distributed File Systems (CDFSs) in terms of characteristics, architecture, reliability, and components. As a key feature, the paper benchmarks them considering as use case an IaaS platform.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
