Default Lustre file system set for spit 'n' polish

From http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/08...pensfs_lustre/

Whamcloud, the startup created in July 2010 to continue development of the open source Lustre supercomputer file system, has secured a $2.1m contract from OpenSFS to spruce it up with new features and functions.

Lustre – used on about 60 per cent of the largest supercomputers in the world – is a parallel clustered file system designed for both supporting petabytes of files and giving high-speed access to the data stored on the file system. Lustre was created by Peter Braam when he was a researcher at Carnegie Mellon University, and was commercialized when he created Cluster File Systems in 2001.

Sun Microsystems bought CFS in 2007 to marry it with its Zettabyte File System, with the aim of going after the HPC market.
