Thanks Amar and Mohamed!
My question was mainly aiming at things like programmatical limitations.
We're already running 2 Gluster-Clusters with 4 nodes each.
3 bricks = 100 TB/node = 400 TB total.
So with Gluster 3.x it's 8PB, possibly more with Gluster 4.x.
Considering 100TB node, we should hit 10PB with 3.x
With Gluster 4.x we are planning to increase the number of hosts/nodes in storage pools.

Right?
Thank you very much again!
