What is BeeGFS?

BeeGFS is a parallel cluster file system designed for high performance and ease of use. It transparently distributes user data across multiple servers, allowing users to scale performance and capacity by adding more servers and disks to the system. The file system can be scaled from small clusters to enterprise-class systems with thousands of nodes. BeeGFS is provided free of charge, and professional support is available for production systems, typically through turnkey solutions delivered by international partners
