Crocus: Enabling Computing Resource Orchestration for Inline Cluster-Wide Deduplication on Scalable Storage Systems

Major Internet services are required to process a tremendous amount of data at real time. As we put these services under the magnifying glass, It's seen that distributed object storage systems play an important role at back-end in achieving this success. In this chapter, overall information of the current state-of –the-art storage systems are given which are used for reliable, high performance and scalable storage needs in data centers and cloud. Then, an experimental distributed object storage system (CADOS) is introduced for retrieving large data, such as hundreds of megabytes, efficiently through HTML5-enabled web browsers over big data – terabytes of data – in cloud infrastructure. The objective of the system is to minimize latency and propose a scalable storage system on the cloud using a thin RESTful web service and modern HTML5 capabilities.

The process of moving to a fully digital microscopy laboratory requires changes in instrumentation, computing hardware, computing software, data storage systems, and data networks, as well as in the operating procedures of each facility. Moving from analog to digital systems in the microscopy laboratory is similar to the instrumentation projects being undertaken in many scientific labs. A central problem of any of these projects is to create the best combination of hardware and software to effectively control the parameters of data collection and then to actually acquire data from the instrument. This problem is particularly acute for the microscopist who wishes to "digitize" the operation of a transmission or scanning electron microscope. Although the basic physics of each type of instrument and the type of data (images & spectra) generated by each are very similar, each manufacturer approaches automation differently. The communications interfaces vary as well as the command language used to control the instrument.
