Introduction: Before you proceed make sure you have physical volume(something like /dev/sda1, /dev/sda4, etc) with no data. This is going to be the gfs volume which you will export to other nodes. It should be on the node which is going to be your gnbd server. If you dont have such volume create one using fdisk. I used mounted gfs volume as a DOCUMENT ROOT for my Apache server nodes(Load Balanced). I tried it on FC4 64-bit. If you plan to try it on any other distribution or 32-bit arch.. still the procedure remains same. Since I built it from source but not RPMs, you may have to simply supply config options with a different CFLAGS.

Introduction: Update 2: Sorting 1 PB with MapReduce . PB is not peanut-butter-and-jelly misspelled. It's 1 petabyte or 1000 terabytes or 1,000,000 gigabytes. It took six hours and two minutes to sort 1PB (10 trillion 100-byte records) on 4,000 computers and the results were replicated thrice on 48,000 disks. Update: Greg Linden points to a new Google article MapReduce: simplified data processing on large clusters . Some interesting stats: 100k MapReduce jobs are executed each day; more than 20 petabytes of data are processed per day; more than 10k MapReduce programs have been implemented; machines are dual processor with gigabit ethernet and 4-8 GB of memory. Google is the King of scalability. Everyone knows Google for their large, sophisticated, and fast searching, but they don't just shine in search. Their platform approach to building scalable applications allows them to roll out internet scale applications at an alarmingly high competition crushing rate. Their goal is always to build

Introduction: Update 3: Presentation from the NoSQL Conference : slides , video . Update 2: Jim Wilson helps with the Understanding HBase and BigTable by explaining them from a "conceptual standpoint." Update: InfoQ interview: HBase Leads Discuss Hadoop, BigTable and Distributed Databases . "MapReduce (both Google's and Hadoop's) is ideal for processing huge amounts of data with sizes that would not fit in a traditional database. Neither is appropriate for transaction/single request processing." Hbase is the open source answer to BigTable, Google's highly scalable distributed database. It is built on top of Hadoop ( product ), which implements functionality similar to Google's GFS and Map/Reduce systems. Both Google's GFS and Hadoop's HDFS provide a mechanism to reliably store large amounts of data. However, there is not really a mechanism for organizing the data and accessing only the parts that are of interest to a particular application. Bigtable (and Hbase) provide a means for

Introduction: This is a guest post by Frédéric Faure (architect at Ysance ), you can follow him on twitter . How do you scale an AWS (Amazon Web Services) infrastructure? This article will give you a detailed reply in two parts: the tools you can use to make the most of Amazon’s dynamic approach, and the architectural model you should adopt for a scalable infrastructure. I base my report on my experience gained in several AWS production projects in casual gaming (Facebook), e-commerce infrastructures and within the mainstream GIS (Geographic Information System). It’s true that my experience in gaming ( IsCool, The Game ) is currently the most representative in terms of scalability, due to the number of users (over 800 thousand DAU – daily active users – at peak usage and over 20 million page views every day), however my experiences in e-commerce and GIS (currently underway) provide a different view of scalability, taking into account the various problems of availability and da

Introduction: Update: Yahoo! Launches World's Largest Hadoop Production Application . A 10,000 core Hadoop cluster produces data used in every Yahoo! Web search query. Raw disk is at 5 Petabytes. Their previous 1 petabyte database couldn't handle the load and couldn't grow larger. Greg Linden thinks the Google cluster has way over 133,000 machines. From an InfoQ interview with project lead Doug Cutting, it appears Hadoop , an open source distributed computing platform, is making good progress towards their 1.0 release. They've successfully reached a 1000 node cluster size, improved file system integrity, and jacked performance by 20x in the last year. How they are making progress could be a good model for anyone: The speedup has been an aggregation of our work in the past few years, and has been accomplished mostly by trial-and-error. We get things running smoothly on a cluster of a given size, then double the size of the cluster and see what breaks. We aim for performan
3 0.64762795 114 high scalability-2007-10-07-Product: Wackamole
Introduction: Wackamole is an application that helps with making a cluster highly available. It manages a bunch of virtual IPs, that should be available to the outside world at all times. Wackamole ensures that a single machine within a cluster is listening on each virtual IP address that Wackamole manages. If it discovers that particular machines within the cluster are not alive, it will almost immediately ensure that other machines acquire these public IPs. At no time will more than one machine listen on any virtual IP. Wackamole also works toward achieving a balanced distribution of number IPs on the machine within the cluster it manages. There is no other software like Wackamole. Wackamole is quite unique in that it operates in a completely peer-to-peer mode within the cluster. Other products that provide the same high-availability guarantees use a "VIP" method. Wackamole is an application that runs as root in a cluster to make it highly available. It uses the membership notifications prov
4 0.64351183 228 high scalability-2008-01-28-Product: ISPMan Centralized ISP Management System
Introduction: From FRESH Ports and their website: ISPman is an ISP management software written in perl, using an LDAP backend to manage virtual hosts for an ISP. It can be used to manage, DNS, virtual hosts for apache config, postfix configuration, cyrus mail boxes, proftpd etc. ISPMan was written as a management tool for the network at 4unet where between 30 to 50 domains are hosted and the number is crazily growing. Managing these domains and their users was a little time consuming, and needed an Administrator who knows linux and these daemons fluently. Now the help-desk can easily manage the domains and users. LDAP data can be easily replicated site wide, and mail box server can be scaled from 1 to n as required. An LDAP entry called maildrop tells the SMTP server (postfix) where to deliver the mail. The SMTP servers can be loadbalanced with one of many load balancing techniques. The program is written with scalability and High availability in mind. This may not be the right s
5 0.63443327 263 high scalability-2008-02-27-Product: System Imager - Automate Deployment and Installs
Introduction: From their website: SystemImager is software that makes the installation of Linux to masses of similar machines relatively easy. It makes software distribution, configuration, and operating system updates easy, and can also be used for content distribution. SystemImager makes it easy to do automated installs (clones), software distribution, content or data distribution, configuration changes, and operating system updates to your network of Linux machines. You can even update from one Linux release version to another! It can also be used to ensure safe production deployments. By saving your current production image before updating to your new production image, you have a highly reliable contingency mechanism. If the new production enviroment is found to be flawed, simply roll-back to the last production image with a simple update command! Some typical environments include: Internet server farms, database server farms, high performance clusters, computer labs, and corporate

1 0.83981097 201 high scalability-2008-01-04-For $5 Million You Can Buy Enough Storage to Compete with Google
Introduction: Kevin Burton calculates that Blekko , one of the barbarian hoard storming Google's search fortress, would need to spend $5 million just to buy enough weapons, er storage. Kevin estimates storing a deep crawl of the internet would take about 5 petabytes. At a projected $1 million per petabyte that's a paltry $5 million. Less than expected. Imagine in days of old an ambitious noble itching to raise an army to conquer a land and become its new prince. For a fine land, and the search market is one of the richest, that would be a smart investment for a VC to make. In these situations I always ask: What would Machiavelli do? Machiavelli taught some lands are hard to conquer and easy to keep and some are easy to conquer and hard to keep. A land like France was easy to conquer because it was filled with nobles. You can turn nobles on each other because they always hate each other for some reason or another. But it's hard to keep a land of nobles because they all think they

Introduction: One of the top recommendations from the collective wisdom contained in Real Life Architectures is to add monitoring to your system. Now! Loud is the lament for not adding monitoring early and often. The reason is easy to understand. Without monitoring you don't know what your system is doing which means you can't fix it and you can't improve it. Feedback loops require data. Some popular monitor options are Munin, Nagios, Cacti and Hyperic. A relatively new entrant is a product called Reconnoiter from Theo Schlossnagle, President and CEO of OmniTI, leading consultants on solving problems of scalability, performance, architecture, infrastructure, and data management. Theo's name might sound familiar. He gives lots of talks and is the author of the very influential Scalable Internet Architectures book. So right away you know Reconnoiter has a good pedigree. As Theo says, their products are born of pain, from the fire of solving real-life problems and that's always a harbinger of
