Overview

LeoFS is an Enterprise Open Source Storage, and it is a highly available, distributed, eventually consistent object/blob store. If you are seeking a storage system that can store huge amount and various kind of files such as photo, movie, log data and so on, LeoFS is suitable for that.

LeoFS is supporting the following features:

Architecture

leofs-architecture-1

LeoFS consists of three core components - LeoStorage, LeoGateway and LeoManager which depend on Erlang.

LeoGateway handles http-request and http-response from any clients when using REST-API OR S3-API. Also, it is already built in the object-cache mechanism (memory and disk cache).

LeoStorage handles GET, PUT and DELETE objects as well as metadata. Also, it has replicator, recoverer and queueing mechanism in order to keep running a storage node and realise eventual consistency.

LeoManager always monitors LeoGateway and LeoStorage nodes. The main monitoring status are Node status and RING’s checksum in order to realise to keep high availability and keep data consistency.

You can access a LeoFS system using Amazon S3 clients and the SDK</a>.

Build LeoFS with LeoFS Packages

LeoFS packages have been already provided on the Web. You're able to easily install LeoFS on your environments.

<a target="_blank" href="https://leo-project.net/leofs/docs/installation/quick/">Here</a> is the installation manual.

Build LeoFS From Source (For Developers)

Here, we explain how to build LeoFS from source code. First, you have to install the following packages to build Erlang and LeoFS.

Build Dependencies

## [CentOS]
$ sudo yum install cmake check-devel gcc gcc-c++ make
## [Ubuntu]
$ sudo apt-get install gcc g++ cmake make check libtool
### For Docker
$ apt-get install lsb-release

Install Erlang

You can install Erlang with kerl.

$ curl -O https://raw.githubusercontent.com/kerl/kerl/master/kerl
$ chmod a+x kerl
$ mkdir -p ~/bin
$ mv kerl ~/bin/
$ echo "export PATH=$PATH:~/bin" >> ~/.bashrc
$ source ~/.bashrc

$ kerl build 19.3 19.3
$ kerl list builds
19.3,19.3

$ kerl install 19.3 /path/to/19.3
$  kerl list installations
19.3 /path/to/19.3

$ source /path/to/19.3/activate
$ kerl active
The current active installation is:
/path/to/19.3

Install LeoFS

Then, clone source of LeoFS and libraries from GitHub.

$ git clone https://github.com/leo-project/leofs.git
$ cd leofs
$ git checkout -b develop remotes/origin/develop
$ ./rebar get-deps
$ ./git_checkout.sh develop

Then, build LeoFS with the following commands.

$ make && make release_for_test

Now, you can find the LeoFS package as follow.

$ ls package/
leo_gateway/  leo_manager_0/  leo_manager_1/  leo_storage/  README.md

Then, we can start and access LeoFS with the following commands. Also, you're able to easily operate LeoFS with leofs-adm script.

$ package/leo_manager_0/bin/leo_manager start
$ package/leo_manager_1/bin/leo_manager start
$ package/leo_storage/bin/leo_storage start
$ package/leo_gateway/bin/leo_gateway start
$ ./leofs-adm status
