Panel: High Performance NFS -- Facts & Fictionsheld in conjunction with
|
Abstract:
Lately you may have begun hearing about High Performance NFS offerings and standards. But we all "know" NFS is not scalable. So what does High Performance NFS mean? FPGA implementation of parts of the file system? Really big caches? RDMA embedded in the RPC mechanism? Multiple filers exporting the same files? Delegations for file layout enabling clients to directly access storage devices/servers in parallel? This panel will address this question with enough opinions to ensure that attendees learn much more about the alternatives and strategies without being able to say it is just one thing. Yet.
