File system geekery

I find file systems work interesting. This is partly because that's what my current job is, and partly because I am, very honestly, a raging geek.

With that in mind, here's some interesting links for those who care about such things as well:


  • BTRFS - a copy on write filesystem for Linux focusing on fault tolerance, repair and easy administration.

  • HAMMER - a highly available clustered filesystem being developed for DragonFlyBSD

  • LFS - a log structured file system for Linux that supports snapshots.

  • POHMELFS - the Parallel Optimized Host Message Exchange Layered File System.



And last but not least, a link to the list of file systems currently available in the Linux kernel.
