Synopsis
Clustering is a vital methodology in the data storage world. Its goal is to maximize cost-effectiveness, availability, flexibility, and scalability. Clustering has changed considerably for the better due to Storage Area Networks, which provide access to data from any node in the cluster. Explains how clusters with shared storage work and the components in the cluster that need to work together Reviews where a cluster should be deployed and how to use one for best performance Author is Lead Technical Engineer for VERITAS Cluster File Systems and has worked on clusters and file systems for the past ten years, A "cluster" is a group of disk sectors. The operating system assigns a unique number to each cluster and then keeps track of files according to the clusters they use. Clustering is a vital methodology in the data storage world, with the objectives of cost effectiveness, high availability, flexibility, and scalability., The ideal introduction to an exciting emergent technology- shared data clusters What are shared data clusters? What is clustering technology? Does it really work? How does it work? How is data stored and accessed on clusters? Dilip Ranade takes you on a fascinating journey to answer these questions and learn all there is to know about this developing technology. Each chapter builds on what you have learned in the previous section, offering you a wide breadth of information at a comfortable pace. After you view the various hardware and software components that constitute a computer system, you'll receive an examination of how cluster software works with an in-depth look at essential clustering services such as locking and messaging. By the end of the book, you will use the progressive knowledge you have gained to understand how shared data clusters can be put to use. You'll study some real-world applications that can be used on a cluster, the difficulties in deploying them, best practices, and finally two case studies - - cluster file systems and cluster managers. Ranade thoroughly covers all you need to know about shared data clusters, including: Networks for clusters Storage subsystems Highly available systems Volume managers File systems Databases and other applications Monitoring, messaging, and transactions in a cluster Cluster lock manager, cluster volume manager, and cluster file system

    Item was shipped quickly and packaged well. Item was exactly as described, brand new and it was even sealed. The seller also messaged me as soon as the purchase went through so communication was great. This was the last book in the series that I needed and to be able to find it in such great condition and at a great cost was unexpected. Highly recommend this seller and will definitely buy from again in the future.
