OpenDFS

OpenDFS – Open Source Distributed File System is a kind of distributed file system.

With the help of this software large chunks of files or data can be stored on a distributed network and can be accessed as if it resides on a single machine. Here the end user is facilitated with a client module to access the services of the server. Different systems distributed on a network will deliberately share a dedicated portion of their storage and processing by registering under the Master(Server) for a mutual big task. The server controls the controls and manages the registered slaves and use their resources as its own and serves the clients' requests.

This project will make use of two popular kind of architectures (Clients/Server and Master/Slaves) for targeting the problem related with the high scale problems of data storage.
