Abstract :
Content aware storage (CAS) is a model of storage facility. In this paper, we present a prototype of CAS area network system implemented at Tsinghua University in China (THCASN) compliant to the OSD T-10 standard. Experimental results of performance comparing THCASN with NFS and iSCSI storage are described. The experimental results demonstrate the performance of THCASN is comparable to and better than that of regular storage systems.
