How To Implement A Database Oriented File System

ALundi writes "A really great read from Andrew Orlowski over at The Register on how Benoit Schillings and Dominic Giampaolo created the 64-bit journaled and attribute based Be File System. Schillings and Giampaolo discuss a variety of design and implementation issues, including data integrity and file system performance. " Interesting in the context of MSFTs plans to implement a DB filesystem in future versions of MS Windows.

Now then, on to my story:

So the other day this microsurf's telling me about how NTFS has journaling, started taunting me about my eight-minute fscking those sixty gig puppies, and I admit it kind of had me kind of almost maybe a bit uncomfortable, not envious mind you, just a bit, mostly it was just a little hot in the room is all. I excused myself, saying I had to google, and that I would be right back. Five minutes later, I had my response. (And implemented, too! Download today.)
