FlowWright Support for Distributed File Systems
Distributed file systems (DFS) have existed for many years and implementations have evolved from being accomplished with hardware solutions to being accomplished with software. In the old days, hard drives were combined using different RAID configurations to achieve DFS solutions. Depending on the RAID level, disks were made to either replicate between each other or act like a single drive. Now, operating systems have evolved to manage DFS and cloud-based drives and file systems inherently offer distributed file systems.Because our DFS connectors are built using a specific interface, our customers will be able to implement their own DFS connectors as needed. DFS connectors perform actions in 3 areas:
- Folders
- Files
- Folder structure
Most operations performed within the DFS include CRUD operations (Create, Read, Update and Delete). The DFS is made for high performance and high availability for applications and most cloud infrastructure and virtual environments are optimized for these requirements. On the other hand, on-premise hardware-based environments typically represent a more difficult challenge for distributed file systems.
If your environment is using distributed FlowWright servers for processing, then you will want to take advantage of our DFS features! Have questions? Let's Talk!
