Google File System (GFS or GoogleFS, not to be confused with the GFS Linux file system) is a proprietary distributed file system developed by Google to provide efficient, reliable access to data using large clusters of commodity hardware. Google file system was replaced by Colossus in 2010.
CloudStore supports incremental scalability, replication, checksumming for data integrity, client side fail-over and access from C++, Java and Python. There is a FUSE module so that the file system can be mounted on Linux. In September 2007, Kosmix published Kosmosfs as open source. [1] The last commit activity was in 2010.
This makes it possible for multiple users on multiple machines to share files and storage resources. Distributed file systems differ in their performance, mutability of content, handling of concurrent writes, handling of permanent or temporary loss of nodes or storage, and their policy of storing content.
Google has developed Chubby, a lock service for loosely coupled distributed systems. [5] It is designed for coarse-grained locking and also provides a limited but reliable distributed file system. Key parts of Google's infrastructure, including Google File System, Bigtable, and MapReduce, use
Gobioff was one of the architects of the Google File System, a proprietary distributed file system developed by Google for its own use.In "The Google File System," [5] the seminal paper about the software, Gobioff and his co-authors outlined their design, reported measurements, and presented real world use of the system.
Sawzall is a procedural domain-specific programming language, used by Google to process large numbers of individual log records. Sawzall was first described in 2003, [1] and the szl runtime was open-sourced in August 2010. [2]
Ghemawat's work at Google includes: Original design of Protocol Buffers, an open-source data interchange format. MapReduce, a system for large-scale data processing applications. Google File System, is a proprietary distributed file system developed to provide efficient, reliable access to data using large clusters of commodity hardware.
Fuchsia is an open-source capability-based operating system developed by Google. In contrast to Google's Linux-based operating systems such as ChromeOS and Android, Fuchsia is based on a custom kernel named Zircon. It publicly debuted as a self-hosted git repository in August 2016 without any official corporate announcement.
