Data Flow
Data flow refers to the on-demand movement of data between the data accelerator GooseFSx and Cloud Object Storage (COS). GooseFSx directly loads data from COS so that hosts can access cached data in GooseFSx at high speed. GooseFSx sinks the generated computation results into COS for persistent, low-cost storage.
Data Flow Task
A data flow task refers to executing a one-time data transfer between a GooseFSx associated directory and a COS associated bucket. It automatically, completely, and efficiently transfers your specified data (for example: data from a GooseFSx associated directory or a certain subdirectory, or data from a COS associated bucket or a certain prefix) to the destination. It then outputs a data flow task report and displays the details of the data flow task.
Before initiating a data flow task, please first associate a bucket by linking a COS bucket to a GooseFSx directory, and specify the data flow from a certain COS bucket to a certain GooseFSx directory.
POSIX Client
GooseFSx POSIX client refers to a host where GooseFSx POSIX client software is deployed and GooseFSx is mounted as a local directory. The POSIX client accesses the mounted directory, just like accessing a local file system.
