- A hierarchical structure (directory tree).
- POSIX file attributes (permissions, last access and modification times).
- Special files (block and character devices, pipes and sockets).
- Symbolic links and hard links.
- Access control based on IP address and/or password.
Distinctive features of MooseFS are:
- High availability.
- Fault tolerance.
- Strong integrity check.
- Capacity is dynamically expandable by simply adding new computers/disks.
- Deleted files are retained for a configurable period of time (a file system level “trash bin”).
- Coherent snapshots of files, even during I/O.
