that automatically adapts to the application workload and cluster architec-
ture. Finally, some additional items that are under investigation include im-
proved cloud and multi-tenancy support, seamless integration of SSDs and
NVRAM in the storage hierarchy, file-level encryption and compression, and
quality of service management for user applications as well as background file
system processes.
