[LinuxUsers] High-Availability Storage Cluster With GlusterFS On Ubuntu

[Chris Thomas]

Here is a program that does something similar but works at a higher level.

I heard Digg uses it to store user icons and the pictures associated with stories, and for other stuff.

GlusterFS is a cluster file-system capable of scaling to several
peta-bytes.  In this tutorial  shows how to install GlusterFS in a
scalable way to create a storage cluster, starting with 2 servers on
Ubuntu 8.04 LTS server. Files will be replicated and splitted accross
all servers which is some sort of RAID 10.

This looks promising.
