MarFS – A Scalable Near-POSIX File System over Cloud Objects

Gary Grider from LANL presented this talk at the Storage Developer Conference. "MarFS is a Near-POSIX File System using cloud storage for data and many POSIX file systems for metadata. Extreme HPC environments require that MarFS scale a POSIX namespace metadata to trillions of files and billions of files in a single directory while storing the data in efficient massively parallel ways in industry standard erasure protected cloud style object stores."
