The Fedora Project (www.fedora.redhat.com), a Red Hat-sponsored and community-supported project, today announced the availability of Global File System (GFS) in Fedora Core 4. By making GFS freely available to the open source development community, Red Hat is enabling and encouraging the development of secure, enterprise technologies and providing customers and partners with increased choice.

GFS is the most scalable enterprise cluster file system on Linux, supporting up to 256 nodes.

"Making GFS available to the open source community via Fedora Core is a continuation of the Red Hat model to build broad communities of use to drive innovation," said Paul Cormier, Executive Vice President of Engineering at Red Hat.

During the Red Hat Summit in June Red Hat also announced the availability of Fedora Directory Server, a secure identity management solution.
Fedora Core 4 with GFS is now available for download at http://www.fedora.redhat.com.
