IBM Open GPFS Code

As more popular Linux cluster, IBM finally open General Parallel File System (GPFS) source code. This done by IBM so that the file system can walk at hardware from other vendor. With GPFS, giving addition ability to all its consumer to use physical resource, like line of server or storage, as also to a virtual file system.GPFS can insert hundreds data in terabyte, same as with accomodating very big file data in engineering design, digital media, data mining, finansial analysis and seismic data processing. GPFS used first time as file system for high performance cluster computing on Unix server in the early of 90's., giving its consumer speed to access file to application. This technology was introduced to Linux system in the end of 90's, accomodating IBM to push Linux cluster to the market. Till now, all user can operate GPFS on a machine with IBM support. However if all consumer have joined IBM cluster environment walk with linux networking or other, they only can operate it in IBM hardware.
