The Oak Ridge Leadership Computing Facility (OLCF) at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) has a long history of deploying the world’s fastest supercomputers to enable open science. At the time it was deployed in 2008, the Spider file system had a formatted capacity of 10 PB and sustained transfer speeds of 240 GB/s which made it the fastest Lustre file system in the world. However, the addition of Titan, a 27 PFLOPS Cray XK7 system, along with other OLCF computational resources, has radically increased the I/O demand beyond the capabilities of the existing Spider parallel file system. The next-generation Spider Lustre file system is designed to provide 32 PB of capacity to open science users at OLCF, at an aggregate transfer rate of 1 TB/s. This paper details the architecture, design choices, and configuration of the next-generation Spider file system
