Abstract
OSD+s are enhanced object-based storage devices (OSDs) able to deal with both data and metadata operations via data and directory objects, respectively. So far, we have focused on designing and implementing efficient directory objects in OSD+s. This paper, however, presents our work on also supporting data objects, and describes how the coexistence of both kinds of objects in OSD+s is profited to efficiently implement data objects and to speed up some common file operations. We compare our OSD+-based Fusion Parallel File System (FPFS) with Lustre and OrangeFS. Results show that FPFS provides a performance up to \(37{\times }\) better than Lustre, and up to \(95{\times }\) better than OrangeFS, for metadata workloads. FPFS also provides 34% more bandwidth than OrangeFS for data workloads, and competes with Lustre for data writes. Results also show serious scalability problems in Lustre and OrangeFS.
