[Lustre-discuss] Burst Buffer

[Bassel Work]

Thanks Andrew,
Our primary goal is of using Burst Buffer for application acceleration for parallel I/O. 
Checkpoint and recovery is also of interest. We are looking to design Burst Buffer in conjunction with the
PFS but also looking for a capability of Burst Buffer to work on separate failure domain of PFS .

Also the Burst Buffer should be capable of being partitioned and
allocated on a per job basis. 
If you have any document speaks about this subject "Burst Buffer" in Luster filesystem; it will be highly appreciated to share it with me.
Best Regards,Bassel

> I would like to check if we are planning to deploy Burst Buffer; Can Luster File System handle this functionality? what we have is two type of storage SSD and SATA. we would like to check if Luster can handle the movement of the data.

This is a kind of "How long is a piece of string" question. Lustre scales past the TB/s performance. What kind of performance do you want?
Thanks,
Andrew
