Check out Avere systems. They have a clustered NFS appliance that you can spin up in EC2, which translates back-end S3 object storage into NFS for your clients. It supports between 3 and 50 nodes, and uses local RAM and SSD cache to accelerate performance. Avere has also been in the NAS acceleration/caching business since 2008, so their product is very mature.
- sharktour 11y agoThanks for the heads up on Avere. Use case for us was for file parsing as part of a batch data pipeline. The latency we saw on alternatives was killer compared to directly mounted EBS. That would be my fear with an S3 option as well, especially when it presents like NFS.
