A novel storage system - NebulaStorage is proposed to solve the storage challenge wall for high performance computer. NebulaStorage designs a new storage architecture in which computing and storage subsystems are loosely coupled. It uses embedded thin storage nodes to build massive storage, and uses software-based erasure code to replace the popular RAID disk array. Simulation tests show that its scalability and fault tolerance ability are better than mainstream luster parallel file system.
