How To Install glusterfs on Fedora 34
glusterfs is Distributed File System
Introduction
In this tutorial we learn how to install glusterfs on Fedora 34.
What is glusterfs
GlusterFS is a distributed file-system capable of scaling to several petabytes. It aggregates various storage bricks over TCP/IP interconnect into one large parallel network filesystem. GlusterFS is one of the most sophisticated file systems in terms of features and extensibility. It borrows a powerful concept called Translators from GNU Hurd kernel. Much of the code in GlusterFS is in user space and easily manageable. This package includes the glusterfs binary, the glusterfsd daemon and the libglusterfs and glusterfs translator modules common to both GlusterFS server and client framework.
