POHMELFS high performance network filesystem. Transactions, failover, performance.

[Evgeniy Polyakov]

Hi.

I'm please to announce POHMEL high performance network filesystem.
POHMELFS stands for Parallel Optimized Host Message Exchange Layered File System.

Development status can be tracked in filesystem section [1].

This is a high performance network filesystem with local coherent cache of data
and metadata. Its main goal is distributed parallel processing of data. Network 
filesystem is a client transport. POHMELFS protocol was proven to be superior to
NFS in lots (if not all, then it is in a roadmap) operations.

This release brings following features:
 * Fast transactions. System will wrap all writings into transactions, which
 	will be resent to different (or the same) server in case of failure.
	Details in notes [1].
 * Failover. It is now possible to provide number of servers to be used in
 	round-robin fasion when one of them dies. System will automatically
	reconnect to others and send transactions to them.
 * Performance. Super fast (close to wire limit) metadata operations over
 	the network. By courtesy of writeback cache and transactions the whole
	kernel archive can be untarred by 2-3 seconds (including sync) over
	GigE link (wire limit! Not comparable to NFS).

Basic POHMELFS features:
    * Local coherent (notes [5]) cache for data and metadata.
    * Completely async processing of all events (hard and symlinks are the only 
    	exceptions) including object creation and data reading.
    * Flexible object architecture optimized for network processing. Ability to
    	create long pathes to object and remove arbitrary huge directoris in 
	single network command.
    * High performance is one of the main design goals.
    * Very fast and scalable multithreaded userspace server. Being in userspace
    	it works with any underlying filesystem and still is much faster than
	async ni-kernel NFS one.

Roadmap includes:
    * Server extension to allow storing data on multiple devices (like creating mirroring),
    	first by saving data in several local directories (think about server, which mounted
	remote dirs over POHMELFS or NFS, and local dirs).
    * Client/server extension to report lookup and readdir requests not only for local
    	destination, but also to different addresses, so that reading/writing could be
	done from different nodes in parallel.
    * Strong authentification and possible data encryption in network channel.
    * Async writing of the data from receiving kernel thread into
    	userspace pages via copy_to_user() (check development tracking
	blog for results).

One can grab sources from archive or git [2] or check homepage [3].
Benchmark section can be found in the blog [4].

The nearest roadmap (scheduled or the end of the month) includes:
 * Full transaction support for all operations (only writeback is
 	guarded by transactions currently, default network state
	just reconnects to the same server).
 * Data and metadata coherency extensions (in addition to existing
	commented object creation/removal messages). (next week)
 * Server redundancy.

Thank you.
