This storage solution is based on BeeGFS, an available source parallel file system, which offers flexibility and easy scalability. The general architecture of BeeGFS consists of four main services: management, metadata, storage, and client. The server components are implemented as user space daemons. The client is a patchless kernel module. An additional monitoring service called Grafana is also available.
The key elements of the BeeGFS file system are as follows:
