Open Source Clustering Software

Generic SCSI target subsystem for Linux SCST allows creation of sophisticated storage devices. It includes generic SCSI target core with SCSI target drivers and backend handlers. There are target drivers for iSCSI, Fibre Channel, SRP, SAS, FCoE, etc.

The aoetools are programs for users of the ATA over Ethernet (AoE) network storage protocol, a simple protocol for using storage over an ethernet LAN. The vblade program (storage target) exports a block device using AoE.

m23 is a free software distribution system (license: GPL), that installs (via network, starting with partitioning and formatting) and administrates (updates, adds / removes software, adds / removes scripts) clients with Debian, (X/K)Ubuntu and LinuxMint. It is used for deployment of Linux clients in schools, institutions and enterprises. The m23 server is controlled via a web interface. A new m23 client can be installed easily in only three steps. Group functions and mass installation tools make managing a vast number of clients comfortable. The integration of existing clients (with .deb-based distributions) into the system is possible, too. Client backup and server backup are included to avoid data loss. With the integrated virtualisation software, m23 can create and manage virtual m23 clients, that run on real m23 clients or the m23 server. Scripts and software packages (for installation on clients) can be created directly from the m23 web interface.

The aim of the project is to develop an open source iSCSI target with professional features, works well in enterprise environment under real workload, and is scalable and versatile enough to meet the challenge of future storage needs and developements.

MooseFS (MFS) is a fault tolerant, highly performing, scaling-out, network distributed file system. It spreads data over several physical servers which are visible to the user as one resource. For standard file operations MooseFS mounted with FUSE acts as other Unix-alike file systems: * A hierarchical structure (directory tree) * Stores POSIX file attributes (permissions, last access and modification times) Supports special files (block and character devices, pipes and sockets) * Symbolic links (file names pointing to target files, not necessarily on MooseFS) and hard links (different names of files which refer to the same data on MooseFS) * Access to the file system can be limited based on IP address and/or password MooseFS on GitHub: https://github.com/moosefs/moosefs Packages repository, download: https://moosefs.com/download Documentation: https://moosefs.com/support Recent changes: https://github.com/moosefs/moosefs/blob/master/NEWS

The easiest way to get a production grade Kubernetes cluster up and running. We like to think of it as kubectl for clusters. kops will not only help you create, destroy, upgrade and maintain production-grade, highly available, Kubernetes cluster, but it will also provision the necessary cloud infrastructure. AWS (Amazon Web Services) is currently officially supported, with DigitalOcean, GCE, and OpenStack in beta support, and Azure and AliCloud in alpha. YAML Manifest Based API Configuration. Templating and dry-run modes for creating Manifests. You can choose from eight different CNI Networking providers out-of-the-box. Supports upgrading from kube-up. Capability to add containers, as hooks, and files to nodes via a cluster manifest.

BQ (BeaST Quorum) is the simple quorum drive implementation for the FreeBSD CTL HA and the BeaST Storage system concept.

The Arusha Project seeks to provide a framework and/or tools for collaborative system administration of multi-platform Unix sites with many dozens of machines.

Commodity Hardware Replicated iSCSI SAN

Easy zero-configuration file and storage sharing between many computers on a network.

Hades: a near-line archive system

Incredibly versatile distributed filesystem. The aim of this project is to provide a FUSE filesystem capable of transparent multi-master, replication and raid-like behavior.

A community repository to develop Commodity Grid (CoG) Software for the access of Grids, through high level interfaces. The main repository is maintained at http://www.cogkit.org

An open source (Apache 2 license) file server software with a RESTFul web service for file management in a cluster of nodes. Including 4 set of API - Store API: Upload, download files and directories - Process API: Managing the long term process runs - Glacier API: Uploading from the server to Glacier - Cluster API: Manage the nodes in the cluster

OpenVault is middleware that helps applications manage removable media. In a Storage Area Network (SAN), it arbitrates access by applications to removable media drives. It is the basis for the IEEE 1244 standard: Media Management System.

Save is a lightweight framework for creating high availability systems based on Mon with extensions for authenticated heartbeats and IP address takeover. Save also provides validation, synchronization, and archival of configuration and other files.

SystemImager is software that makes the installation of Linux to masses of similar machines relatively easy. It makes software distribution, configuration, and operating system updates easy, and can also be used for content distribution.

Data Storage, protection and management system for Debian Linux and ZFS. Dual node Metro Active/Passive and Active/Active High Availability for any application. Converts any application, program and script into a highly available mission critical solution, with Webmin fully web-based administration interface.

anextfs is a FUSE-based Filesystem. It enables serverside serialization and local file-caching.

g4u is a bootfloppy/CD-ROM that allows easy cloning of a PC harddisks or partition to deploy a common setup on a number of PCs via FTP or local disk. As the harddisk/partition is processed as a image, any filesystem and operating system can be deployed.

Mutil is a set of standard utilities that have been parallelized to maximize performance on modern file systems. These currently include multi-threaded drop-in replacements for cp and md5sum from GNU coreutils, which have achieved 10/30x rates on one/many nodes.
