• Comparable works: what are other people doing to solve the problem?
  
  
  • NFS and INN: a good way to do a cluster?
    
    
    • The disadvantages:
      
      
      • NFS is very chatty and inefficient network-wise, meaning that remote reader machines are not feasible across WAN links
        
        
      • NFS operations are much more expensive than local disk operations, capping performance even on a local LAN
