CubeFS (储宝文件系统 in Chinese) is a cloud-native storage platform be hosted by the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF) as a incubating project.
CubeFS has been commonly used as the underlying storage infrastructure for online applications, database or data processing services and machine learning jobs orchestrated by Kubernetes. An advantage of doing so is to separate storage from compute - one can scale up or down based on the workload and independent of the other, providing total flexibility in matching resources to the actual storage and compute capacity required at any given time.
Some key features of CubeFS include:
- Multiple Protocols Support
Allowing users to access the same file over multiple protocols, such as POSIX/HDFS/S3 - Highly Scalable Metadata Service
Elasticity, scalability and strong consistency of metadata - Excellent Storage Performance
A lot of performance optimizations for large/small files and sequential/random writes - Multi-tenancy
Provides an efficient mechanism to improve resource utilization and tenant isolation - Hybrid Cloud Acceleration
Accelerate Hybrid Cloud IO performance through multi-level cache - Multiple Storage Engines
Provides high-performance replication engine and low-cost erasure coding engine
