Red Hat Gluster Storage, formerly Red Hat Storage Server, is a computer storage product from Red Hat. It is based on open source technologies such as GlusterFS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux. [2]
The latest release, RHGS 3.5, combines Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL 8 and also RHEL 7) with the latest GlusterFS community release, oVirt, and XFS File System. [3] [4]
In April 2014, Red Hat re-branded GlusterFS-based Red Hat Storage Server to "Red Hat Gluster Storage". [5]
Red Hat Gluster Storage, a scale-out NAS product, uses as its basis GlusterFS, a distributed file-system. Red Hat Gluster Storage also exemplifies software-defined storage (SDS).
In June 2012, Red Hat Gluster Storage was announced as a commercially supported integration of GlusterFS with Red Hat Enterprise Linux. [6] In 2022, it was announced Red Hat Gluster Storage version 3.5 will be the final version and this particular commercial offering will reach end-of-life at the end of 2024. [7]
