Abstract:
Robotic storage devices offer large storage capacities at low cost, but with large access times. While such systems have been common in supercomputer sites for years, they are now becoming affordable for many more customers. One problem with these devices is the lack of system software to seamlessly incorporate them into the storage hierarchy. The Coconut file system extends the Sprite log-structured file system (LFS) to incorporate such devices into the file system.This is joint work with John Kohl and Mike Stonebraker of the University of California at Berkeley. 1
