=== Distributed parallel file systems === Distributed [[Parallel computing|parallel]] file systems stripe data over multiple servers for high performance. They are normally used in [[high-performance computing|high-performance computing (HPC)]]. Some of the distributed parallel file systems use an [[object storage device]] (OSD) (in Lustre called OST) for chunks of data together with centralized [[metadata]] servers. *[[BeeGFS]] is a hardware-independent parallel file system that features distributed metadata and striping of files across multiple targets, such as NVMe devices or logical volumes. *[[Lustre (file system)|Lustre]] is an [[Open-source software|open-source]] high-performance distributed parallel file system for Linux, used on many of the largest computers in the world. *[[Parallel Virtual File System]] (PVFS, PVFS2, [[OrangeFS]]). Developed to store virtual system images, with a focus on non-shared writing optimizations. Available for [[Linux]] under [[GNU General Public License|GPL]]. * [[Vault File System|VaultFS]] β configurable any*Data + any*Parity EC (erasure coding) chunks are widely distributed on D+P disks across the cluster
