Beowulfers, I've been reading a lot about using SSD devices to act as caches for traditional spinning disks or filesystems over a network (SAN, iSCSI, SAS, etc.). For example, Fusion-io had directCache, which works with any block-based storage device (local or remote) and Dell is selling LSI's CacheCade, which will act as a cache for local disks.
http://www.fusionio.com/data-sheets/directcache/ httP//www.dell.com/downloads/global/products/pedge/en/perc-h700-cachecade.pdf Are there any products like this that would work with parallel filesystems, like Lustre or GPFS? Has anyone done any research in this area? Would this even be worthwhile? -- Prentice _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org sponsored by Penguin Computing To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
