TITLE:
Virtualized Network Storage
ABSTRACT:
In this talk I will present Slice, a logically unified but physically
decentralized storage service architecture. Slice provides a virtualized
NFS server using a thin network element (a "storage router")
to redirect client requests across a server ensemble. Challenges include
data partitioning and management policies, scaling concerns, and preserving
single-server failure semantics in this multi-server environment. Our
terabyte-capacity prototype is compatible with standard NFS clients, delivering
scalable request throughput and I/O bandwidth exceeding one gigabyte per
second.
