[Gluster-devel] DHT-based Replication

[Jerker Nyberg]

It is such a good idea that an implementation has already been merged in 
the Linux kernel. :)

When I first created the Wikipedia pages for Ceph and GlusterFS in january 
2007 I added references to each other. I hope for some cross-fertilization 
of ideas.

I look forward to adding high-availability and high-performance services 
on top of these file systems when they are stable enough.

Also interesting is that the LLNL native port of ZFS seem to be reasonably 
stable, at least for my backup server. Deduplication and compression on 
the file system level.
