> This JIRA includes two major pieces: 1. the interface exposed to upper layer
> operating system that mounts the file system; and 2. the interface exposed to
> lower layer container storage layer.
> On one hand, to make CBlock mountable and accessible for a POSIX OS, we need
> to implement file system protocol. We chose to do this by running cblock with
> jSCSI (http://jscsi.org/) which is a java implementation of iSCSI protocol.
> More specifically, CBlock volume will exposed as an java-based iSCSI target,
> and any machine that has iSCSI installed will be able to talk to CBlock
> volume and mounted locally just as any disks. This is JIRA make a starting
> point by introducing jSCSI and implementing its {{IStorageModule}}. This will
> be registered to jSCSI server in future JIRA.
> One the other hand, to be able to have the CBlock talk to container layer
> with better performance, CBlock should be able to cache data locally. More
> specifically, clients' read/write should be performed on the locally disk
> cache, while threads are pushing and retrieving data in backend. This JIRA
> takes the first step by defining interfaces for the local cache.
