Abstract

In this paper, we present the features of HDFS, a High-speed Distributed File System. HDFS aims to provide storage to large files so that read and write performance for such files will not degrade significantly compared to access for small files. One application of HDFS is to provide storage of multimedia files where such files are expected to be large. The design of HDFS is based on three modules: Large File Service (LFS), Distributed File Service (DFS), and Multimedia Library System (MLS). HDFS is implemented as an installable file system in the UNIX operating system kernel and can coexist with existing file systems.
