Subject: Caching support in glusterfs
While searching for caching support in glusterfs I stumbled upon this
link:
http://www.gluster.org/community/documentation/index.php/Features/caching
But I didn't get much info from it. What is plan ahead?
What aspects of caching support would you be interested in?
We'll be interested in client-side caching support. As Jeff mentioned,
can you please elaborate more on supporting caching in Ganesha and Samba?
As you may be aware of latest versions of NFS/SMB protocol have added
the support for Delegation/Leases which shall guarantee certain
semantics to their clients with respect to file sharing. Protocol
clients thus are guaranteed cache consistency and can do aggressive data
caching.
There is on-going effort to support such Leases on Gluster.
Apart from that, NFS-Ganesha server currently does attribute caching of
the files and directories being accessed. I am not sure if there is any
caching being done by SMB server. Request others to comment.
Thanks,
Soumya
