Abstract

Metadata management is a key technique of data grid. This paper presents a replication and cache based metadata management system (RCMMS) to improve metadata management of Global Distributed Storage System (GDSS). Storage Service Provider (SSP) of GDSS has dedicated buffer to cache metadata. The design, implementation and evaluation of RCMMS are discussed in this paper. RCMMS provides efficient algorithms to manage highly dynamic metadata replicas. The evaluation demonstrates that replica plus cache metadata management system outperforms existing metadata management system of GDSS.
