Hello Boris,

I'm in a similar search for a scalable and resilient solution. So far I like 
glusterfs, relatively easy to setup, no meta-server required, decent 
performance, but I haven't tested it thoroughly. Been playing with their 
latest beta release in a raid0+1 setup; haven't managed to lose any data yet.

I'll also be interested in opinions from other people.
