XFS is a high-performance 64-bit journaling file system created by Silicon Graphics, Inc (SGI) in 1993. [7] It was the default file system in SGI's IRIX operating system starting with its version 5.3.
IRIX (/ ˈ aɪ r ɪ k s /, EYE-ricks) is a discontinued operating system developed by Silicon Graphics (SGI) to run on the company's proprietary MIPS workstations and servers. It is based on UNIX System V with BSD extensions. In IRIX, SGI originated the XFS file system and the industry-standard OpenGL graphics API.
The CXFS file system (Clustered XFS) is a proprietary shared disk file system designed by Silicon Graphics (SGI) specifically to be used in a storage area network (SAN) environment. A significant difference between CXFS and other shared disk file systems is that data and metadata are managed separately from each other. CXFS provides direct ...
SGI was a promoter of free software, [citation needed] supporting several projects such as Linux and Samba, and opening some of its own previously proprietary code such as the XFS filesystem and the Open64 compiler. SGI was also important in its contribution to the C++ Standard Template Library (STL) with many useful extensions in the MIT-like ...
