HANDY:a Cluster File System with Dynamic Scalability
Zhiyuan Shao · Journal of Chinese Computer Systems · 2006
Many existing cluster file systems suffer from static scalability and bad availability, so we implement a new cluster file system with dynamic scalability, called HANDY.This proposed a dynamic scalability protocol based on global hash table and describe its design, algorithm and analysis. The experimental results show that HANDY has good dynamic scalability and high availability and reduces the cost of management and maintenance significantly.
