[Gluster-users] A question about comparing gluster to other storage
I'm relatively new to the gluster community and wanted to know if there's anyone out there that can talk to me, or point me to comparative information on the following: - glusterFS - SWIFT - CEPH I am interested in a solution that is object-based and will scale into single-digit petabytes. I'd like to know of experiences with these solutions that have to do with large-scale deployments. If this is not the/a correct forum to discuss this...please let me know. Thanks... --Randy Breunling rbreunling at gmail.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

[Gluster-users] A question about comparing gluster to other storage
- GlusterFS will be better if you want to do directory operations, and want a "real" filesystem (i.e. where you can grep stuff, edit files, have consistency gaurantees etc... and swift will be better for pure scale (less need to worry about metadata == easier to scale on commodity hardware. - Certainly both glusterFS and swift would scale to petabytes (object stores are built for that sort of thing, as is gluster).
