Scalable file system metadata partitioning over multiple machines.

IndexFS by DeltaFS

This is the DeltaFS re-implementation of the IndexFS paper of CMU published by Kai, Qing, and Garth at IEEE/ACM SC 2014. THIS IS NOT THE ORIGINAL INDEXFS CODE. The original IndexFS code is written by Kai and Qing and is available at https://github.com/zhengqmark/indexfs-0.4. Internally, DeltaFS uses this re-implementation of IndexFS to evaluate different distributed filesystem metadata design options and to assist DeltaFS development. This re-implementation reuses some of the DeltaFS code. Again, this is not the original IndexFS code.
