Tutorial: Distributed replicated storage with GlusterFS on Debian Linux |
 vote
 |
|
| This tutorial shows how to combine four single storage servers (running Debian Lenny) to a distributed replicated storage with GlusterFS. Nodes 1 and 2 (replication1) as well as 3 and 4 (replication2) will mirror each other, and replication1 and replication2 will be combined to one larger storage server (distribution). Basically, this is RAID10 over network. If you lose one server from replication1 and one from replication2, the distributed volume continues to work. The client system (Debian Lenny as well) will be able to access the storage as if it was a local filesystem. GlusterFS is a clustered file-system capable of scaling to several peta-bytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over Infiniband RDMA or TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network file system. Storage bricks can be made of any commodity hardware such as x86-64 servers with SATA-II RAID and Infiniband HBA. read more... |

Newbie guide to programming languages |
 vote
 |
|
Five top languages described and compared...
You may notice that I didn't list Java or PHP. Why not? Because they're primarily used to write software that runs Web servers. Java (which despite the name has nothing to do with JavaScript) is sometimes used to write desktop applications or cellphone games, but it's relatively complex and I don't recommend it as a first langauge. PHP is a little simpler, but it isn't used much outside Web servers and for most beginning programmers, you're better off with another language. read more... |
