See https://www.foundationdb.org https://www.foundationdb.org for information on FDB but in short it is a distributed database that is auto-scaling, auto-healing, auto-sharding and ACID. You do need a minimum of 3 nodes to get those properties. When you connect to a volume it is protected by a lock that ensures only a single client.
- scoot 9y agoThanks for the reply. Don't know if you will see this, but I was also interested in how the NBD client fails over to an alternate node if the one it's connected to fails. Regarding locking, is there a distributed lock manager? What prevents two NBD clients connecting to the same volume via two different nodes?
