A New Network Storage Scheme-intelligent Network Disk Cluster Storage System
Yu Bin · Journal of Chinese Computer Systems · 2008
To solve some problems of network storage technology,a new scheme named intelligent network disk cluster storage system(INDCSS for short) is proposed.First,INDCSS efficiently solves the problem of single failure point by adopting a model of decentralized service and centralized management.Second,it integrates multi storage nodes into a large capacity and centralized storage pool with the help of a virtual file system,which can provide greater capacity and higher scalability.Third,it can satisfy the requirements of data integrity and throughput by using two kinds of data layouts simultaneously.Finally,it designs a scheme of intelligent I/O schedule and a method for self-adaptive load balancing of multi-nodes.
