direct.h is a C/C++ header file provided by Microsoft Windows, which contains functions for manipulating file system directories. Some POSIX functions that do similar things are in unistd.h . Member functions
allows a user to list the contents of the AFS directory, examine the ACL associated with the directory and access subdirectories. Insert (i) allows a user to add new files or subdirectories to the directory. Delete (d) allows a user to remove files and subdirectories from the directory. Administer (a) allows a user to change the ACL for the ...
Distributed file systems in clouds such as GFS and HDFS rely on central or master servers or nodes (Master for GFS and NameNode for HDFS) to manage the metadata and the load balancing. The master rebalances replicas periodically: data must be moved from one DataNode/chunkserver to another if free space on the first server falls below a certain ...
Apache Hadoop (/ h ə ˈ d uː p /) is a collection of open-source software utilities for reliable, scalable, distributed computing.It provides a software framework for distributed storage and processing of big data using the MapReduce programming model.
Hierarchical Data Format (HDF) is a set of file formats (HDF4, HDF5) designed to store and organize large amounts of data.Originally developed at the U.S. National Center for Supercomputing Applications, it is supported by The HDF Group, a non-profit corporation whose mission is to ensure continued development of HDF5 technologies and the continued accessibility of data stored in HDF.
Some researchers have made a functional and experimental analysis of several distributed file systems including HDFS, Ceph, Gluster, Lustre and old (1.6.x) version of MooseFS, although this document is from 2013 and a lot of information are outdated (e.g. MooseFS had no HA for Metadata Server at that time).
GPFS distributes its directory indices and other metadata across the filesystem. Hadoop, in contrast, keeps this on the Primary and Secondary Namenodes, large servers which must store all index information in-RAM. GPFS breaks files up into small blocks. Hadoop HDFS likes blocks of 64 MB or more, as this reduces the storage requirements of the ...
Apache Hive is a data warehouse software project. It is built on top of Apache Hadoop for providing data query and analysis. [3] [4] Hive gives an SQL-like interface to query data stored in various databases and file systems that integrate with Hadoop.
