ABSTRACT:
The present invention describes a parallel processing system. The system comprises a plurality of compute nodes for executing applications via a storage application interface having system input/output calls, a plurality of I/O nodes, and a file system implemented in the compute node, for storing information mapping API system input/output calls for the data object with the globally unique identification for the data object. Each I/O node manages a communicatively coupled plurality of storage resources and each has a means for generating a globally unique identification for a data object stored on the storage resource and transmits the globally unique identification and the data object to the compute node via at least one interconnecting fabric providing communication between any of the compute node and any of the I/O nodes.
