Staying in the Zone - Retrofitting Zoned Storage into a Scalable Enterprise File System

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Zoned storage enables higher storage densities with Shingled Magnetic Recording (SMR) hard disks and reduces costs and improves tail latency with Zoned Namespace (ZNS) SSDs. However, the adoption of zoned storage has been limited by the absence of suitable general-purpose file systems allowing the use of unmodified applications.
