Personal website for some random tidbits I work on
With a distributed filesystem, all of those details are abstracted away from the user, who can simply work with the files without worrying about how many machines, network calls or disks are involved behind the scene. For example, in zipfian workloads (where frequently accessed data dominates), read performance suffers because objects may be dirty, forcing queries to the tail node. As shown in the comparison table, in the common case, CRAQ delivers scalable, low-latency reads at the cost of high write latency compared to other protocols and systems.
