  • Shared File Systems: Determining the Best Choice for Your Distributed SAS® Foundation Applications Margaret Crevar, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC
    Paper SAS569-2017 Shared File Systems: Determining the Best Choice for your Distributed SAS® Foundation Applications Margaret Crevar, SAS Institute Inc., Cary, NC ABSTRACT If you are planning on deploying SAS® Grid Manager and SAS® Enterprise BI (or other distributed SAS® Foundation applications) with load balanced servers on multiple operating systems instances, , a shared file system is required. In order to determine the best shared file system choice for a given deployment, it is important to understand how the file system is used, the SAS® I/O workload characteristics performed on it, and the stressors that SAS Foundation applications produce on the file system. For the purposes of this paper, we use the term "shared file system" to mean both a clustered file system and shared file system, even though" shared" can denote a network file system and a distributed file system – not clustered. INTRODUCTION This paper examines the shared file systems that are most commonly used with SAS and reviews their strengths and weaknesses. SAS GRID COMPUTING REQUIREMENTS FOR SHARED FILE SYSTEMS Before we get into the reasons why a shared file system is needed for SAS® Grid Computing, let’s briefly discuss the SAS I/O characteristics. GENERAL SAS I/O CHARACTERISTICS SAS Foundation creates a high volume of predominately large-block, sequential access I/O, generally at block sizes of 64K, 128K, or 256K, and the interactions with data storage are significantly different from typical interactive applications and RDBMSs. Here are some major points to understand (more details about the bullets below can be found in this paper): SAS tends to perform large sequential Reads and Writes.

    To Our Stockholders: Fiscal Year 2009 was a year marked by both challenge and progress. The global economic crisis that began last fall caused customers to pull back on their spending, particularly in the March quarter. We also saw continued pressure in the tape market, most notably in the low- end segments of the market as the role of tape in backup, recovery and archive continued to evolve. Despite these challenges, however, Quantum made significant progress in refining and executing on our strategy, delivering on our business model and positioning the company to capitalize on growth opportunities in the coming year, including those resulting from our leadership in data deduplication technology. In FY09, we solidified our strategy of providing a comprehensive range of solutions for protecting and managing data from the edge of the network to the core data center, solutions that integrate disk, tape, software and services within a common management and security framework. One of the key components of this strategy is the ability to leverage our leadership in deduplication, which continues to be one of the hottest segments in storage. On that front, we announced general availability of our DXi7500 Enterprise disk backup and remote replication solution in May of last year, with industry-first features such as policy- based deduplication and direct tape creation. In addition, last fall we introduced a midrange version of the DXi7500 (DXi7500 Express), and in February we made a number of major enhancements to the DXi7500 product line, including increasing capacity and expanding replication and path-to-tape options. Since the end of the fiscal year, we’ve introduced the DXi2500-D – a high-performance, low-cost backup and deduplication appliance for remote and branch offices optimized for replication back to a central data center – as well as a new version of our Quantum Vision™ backup management and reporting software that works across sites and our disk and tape systems.
