why would you keep metadata in cassandra ? Even for millions of documents, metadata would be very small, mysql/postgres should suffice.
Luster ofcourse is well known and widely used along with glusterfs. Luster I think requires kernel modifications and will be much more complex. Also it is easier said than done that store in fs and metadata in db. You will have to create a custom solution to integrate and create transactions across them, avoid metadata spof, ensure load-balance etc. On Thu, Mar 3, 2011 at 2:49 PM, mcasandra <mohitanch...@gmail.com> wrote: > Has anyone heard about lustre distributed file system?
