Open Source Storage: Disruptive Technology or Distant Dream?
,----[ Quote ]
| While Zmanda has its doubters, some feel Cleversafe is a concept
| whose time has come. The software is freely available, with more
| than 3,000 downloads to date. It is built around the Linux File
| System project, which allows Linux computers to store information
| on a dispersed Cleversafe Research Storage Grid. Data is
| distributed across the Internet to 11 grid storage hosting
| facilities in North America.
|
| Via Cleversafe IDA (information dispersal algorithms) and the
| Cleversafe grid software, it offers the ability to build grids
| for dispersing and storing data. 25 developers are currently at
| work on Cleversafe, which has been available for about 18 months
| under the GNU General Public License (GPL) 2.0. It runs on Red
| Hat, CentOS, Debian and Fedora Linux.
|
| [...]
|
| "Cleversafe has the potential to become a hugely disruptive
| force in storage," says John Webster, an analyst at Illuminata.
| "The only price one currently pays to register and log on is a
| 10 Mbps connection to the internet and 1 TB of capacity for
| each connected Linux server."
