Increasing File System Availability through Second-Class Replication
نویسنده
چکیده
In this position paper we describe an important component of our overall approach to achieving high availability in the Coda file system. Coda, a descendant of the Andrew file system (AFS) [6], provides users with shared file access in a large-scale Unix1 workstation environment. Our goal is to provide users with the benefits of a shared data repository without the negative consequences of total dependence on that repository.

An Efficient Data Replication Strategy in Large-Scale Data Grid Environments Based on Availability and Popularity
The data grid technology, which uses the scale of the Internet to solve storage limitation for the huge amount of data, has become one of the hot research topics. Recently, data replication strategies have been widely employed in distributed environment to copy frequently accessed data in suitable sites. The primary purposes are shortening distance of file transmission and achieving files from ...
متن کاملImproving Data Availability Using Combined Replication Strategy in Cloud Environment
As grow as the data-intensive applications in cloud computing day after day, data popularity in this environment becomes critical and important. Hence to improve data availability and efficient accesses to popular data, replication algorithms are now widely used in distributed systems. However, most of them only replicate the static number of replicas on some requested chosen sites and it is ob...
متن کاملExperience of Adaptive Replication in Distributed File Systems
Replication is a key strategy for improving locality, fault tolerance and availability in distributed systems. The paper focuses on distributed file systems and presents a system to transparently manage file replication through a network of workstations sharing the same distributed file system. The system integrates an adaptive file replication policy that is capable of reacting to changes in t...
متن کاملCoping with Conflicts in an Optimistically Replicated File System
Coda is a scalable distributed Unix1 file system that provides high availability through the use of two distinct but complementary mechanisms. One mechanism, server replication, stores copies of a file at multiple servers. The other mechanism, disconnected operation, is a mode of execution in which a caching site temporarily assumes the role of a replication site. Disconnected operation is part...
متن کاملE2DR: Energy Efficient Data Replication in Data Grid
Abstract— Data grids are an important branch of gird computing which provide mechanisms for the management of large volumes of distributed data. Energy efficiency has recently emerged as a hot topic in large distributed systems. The development of computing systems is traditionally focused on performance improvements driven by the demand of client's applications in scientific and business domai...
