TLDR
GPFS is IBM's parallel, shared-disk file system for cluster computers, available on the RS/6000 SP parallel supercomputer and on Linux clusters, and discusses how distributed locking and recovery techniques were extended to scale to large clusters.Citations

Optimization of Ceph Reads/Writes Based on Multi-threaded Algorithms
Ke Zhan,Ai Hua Piao +1 more
TL;DR: The results show that the performance of multi-threaded algorithm for downloading/uploading small files and large files are improved by 7624, 2827% and 58.95%, 170.36% respectively compared to the method of command line.

Scaling a global file system to the greatest possible extent, performance, capacity, and number of users
TL;DR: IBM's GPFS file system, with extensions developed by the San Diego Supercomputer Center in collaboration with IBM, is used, both theoretically and by demonstration, in scaling file storage to the very widest possible extents.

Euro-Par 2015: Parallel Processing
TL;DR: This paper presents and illustrates two important notions associated with concurrent objects, the first of which is the notion of a hybrid implementation and the second one, which is related to their definition, is the idea of an abortable object.

Toward a unified object storage foundation for scalable storage systems
TL;DR: This paper investigates a number of popular data models used in cloud storage, big data, and high-performance computing (HPC) storage and describes the unique features that distinguish them and proposes a proposed data model.

StoRM: A flexible solution for Storage Resource Manager in grid
TL;DR: StoRM service, an implementation of the Storage Resource Manager Interface version 2.2, is described, designed to foster the adoption of cluster file systems, and thanks to the marked flexibility, StoRM can be used in small data centre with human resource deficiency to administer an other grid service and, at the same time, capable to grow in terms of storage managed and workload.

Frangipani: a scalable distributed file system
TL;DR: Initial measurements indicate that Frangipani has excellent single-server performance and scales well as servers are added, and can be exported to untrusted machines using ordinary network file access protocols.

Scalability in the XFS file system
TL;DR: The architecture and design of a new file system, XFS, for Silicon Graphics' IRIX operating system is described, and the use of B+ trees in place of many of the more traditional linear file system structures are discussed.
