    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : Distributed hierarchical file systems typically decouple the storage and serving of the file metadata from the file contents (file system blocks) to enable the file system to scale to store more data and support higher throughput. We designed HopsFS to take the scalability of the file system one step further by also decoupling the storage and serving of the file system metadata. READ MORE
