BlobSeer
========

BlobSeer is a large-scale, distributed data storage system that addresses storage requirements 
in an innovating way, aiming to deal with the explosion of data sizes in a scalable fashion. 
It emerged from the idea of leveraging versioning for concurrent manipulation of binary 
large objects (BLOBs) in order to efficiently exploit data-level parallelism and sustain 
a high throughput despite massively parallel data accesses. Features of BlobSeer include:
- a versioning based access model
- distributed data and metadata
- instant snapshots and clones.
- specific optimizations for virtual machine image storage,
  such as a hybrid pre/post copy live I/O block migration scheme

BlobSeer is the main research project of Bogdan Nicolae and formed the core of his
PhD thesis "BlobSeer: Towards efficient data storage management for large-scale, 
distributed systems", defended Nov 30, 2010 at the University of Rennes 1, France.
It is currently used in numerous research projects of the KerData team, INRIA Rennes,
France.

BlobSeer is released under LGPL 3.0. Please see lgpl-3.0.txt for further details.
