Gluster is a software defined distributed storage that can scale to several petabytes. It provides interfaces for object, block and file storage. It is a distributed scale-out filesystem that allows rapid provisioning of additional storage based on your storage consumption needs. It incorporates automatic failover as a primary feature.

Gluster runs on top of most unix filesystems, with XFS and ext4 being the most popular choices.  Data can be accessed from just about anywhere – You can use traditional NFS, SMB/CIFS for Windows clients, or our own native GlusterFS (a few additional packages are needed on the client machines for this, but as you will see, they are quite small).
