http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MogileFS:
|
|
|
|
MogileFS was created by Danga Interactive for use with LiveJournal. It
|
|
is similar to the Andrew File System in its design goal. It is different
|
|
than a traditional filesystem in that the user has to access files via
|
|
an API. However, it's possible to implement the file system in user
|
|
space using FUSE, or a similar package.
|
|
|
|
MogileFS enables horizontal scaling of storage across any number of
|
|
machines. Files are replicated between machines according to
|
|
customizable rules such that at any time a number of drives or machines
|
|
could be lost without data becoming unavailable. It is designed for high
|
|
volume applications, such as high traffic websites, to spread storage
|
|
across cheaper machines without relying on technologies such as NFS.
