For the distributed FS people out there I've got a complicated question. In my job I need to poll and collect data from many remote sensor devices, log all the output, and process that. Not only do I do this buy MANY of my colleges do this and have a different way to manage this process. Can a distributed file system help with this case? Is there any file system that would be able to sync what amounts to text/binary data across many hosts and allow me to aggregate the data off the network for more secure storage? I was thinking about using IPFS for this but this also seems better. I'd hopefully like to have a private network for this use case so that other people can't post up a device on this file system and introduce fake data.
