SCI: NMI DEVELOPMENT GridNFS

该方案开发、原型、测试和部署了一个名为GridNFS的系统，该系统将分布式文件系统技术和灵活的身份管理技术扩展到网格环境中。GridNFS基于NFSVersion4，这是分布式文件系统的IETF标准。安全问题与X.509凭据和NFSv4与Globus安全基础设施(GSI)的接口有关。这允许GSI身份在GridNFS服务器导出的文件的访问控制列表中使用。该提案还解决了开发一种一致的规范方式来命名共享数据的必要性。该提案声称这项工作对社区的两个主要贡献：与现有认证和授权工具相结合的透明和安全的数据管理；以及可伸缩和灵活的名称空间管理，用于在虚拟组织中建立和控制身份并指定其数据资源。

This proposal develops, prototypes, tests and deploys a system called GridNFS that extends distributed file system technology and flexible identity management techniques to grid environments. GridNFS is based NFS version 4, the IETF standard for distributed file systems. Security issues are with X.509 credentials and interfacing NFSv4 with the Globus Security Infrastructure (GSI). This allows GSI identity to be used in access control lists on files exported by GridNFS servers. The proposal also addresses the need to develop a consistent canonical way to name shared data. The proposal claims two main contributions to the community delivered by the work: transparent and secure data management integrated with existing authentication and authorization tools; and scalable and agile name space management for establishing and controlling identity in virtual organizations and specifying their data resources.
