Each day huge quantity of data is produced by means of text, audio, image, and video format via many sources like social media, YouTube, websites and so on. The most important part is storing this generated data in the file system. To store this intensive data cluster-based storage systems are required. Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) and Google File System (GFS) are the two major file system which are used to store the data. This paper gives an overview of GFS and HDFS. Comparison of these file system is also discussed.
