Abstract
     GlusterFS is an open source, distributed file system capable of 
scaling to several petabytes and handling thousands of clients. 
GlusterFS clusters together storage building blocks over Infiniband RDMA 
or TCP/IP interconnect, aggregating disk and memory resources and 
managing data in a single global namespace.

     GlusterFS is based on a stackable user space design and can deliver 
exceptional performance for diverse workloads.

     The talk will include a fairly deep presentation on the design and 
implementation of GlusterFS and a live demonstration.
