Is there any distributed file system which runs on Windows except Hadoop?


I'm desperate to find any DFS which supports Windows. The only such DFS is Hadoop HDFS but it's very hard to deploy it other big number of Windows machines because it requires Cygwin + SSH.

Almost all DFS systems work only on Linux and only one (HDFS) runs on Windows.

I would be very grateful if somebody will be able to point me to other DFS with Windows support.

From DFS I need ability to load balance files across DFS nodes, compression and multi language API to work with DFS (I don't need to mount DFS).


Solution

  • There is DFS from Microsoft itself, it's in Windows Server (if it's good or bad I don't know)
