Sunのストレージ研究プロジェクト：Celesteなるものがありました：
"Celeste, Automatic storage (instead of simply storage automation)"
　http://research.sun.com/sunlabsday/talks.php?id=43
　　"Project Overview
　　Celeste is a massive file storage system that requires no backup,
　　continues to operate while under significant stress, and can be
　　used as an enterprise storage system, or as a publically available
　　storage service."
　　...
　　"Files in Celeste are versioned, and have audit trails."
　　...
　　"Celeste reliability is achieved by distributing multiple copies
　　of fragments of the original file across a heterogeneous collection
　　of networked storage elements ("cells"), wherein cells are separated
　　from other cells by anti-correlated attributes continually measured
　　and interpreted dynamically."

　　"Security and all that it entails is the most important element in
　　a modern IT organization today. It is also integral to the Sun Labs
　　project - Celeste, an automatically managed massive read/write or
　　mutable object store - the security of which is being investigated
　　in collaboration with the Zurich Information Security Center (ZISC)."


ちなにみ以前話題となった Honeycomb Storage Systemは無事に研究段階から
Network Storage business unitに引き継がれたそうです：
"Technology Transfer @ Sun Labs
　Honeycomb Storage System Transfers to Network Storage", July 1, 2005
　http://research.sun.com/spotlight/2005_07_01_honeycomb.html
　　"The Honeycomb Storage System is a radical new approach to managing
　　large collections of reference data. Designed for ultra-low cost,
　　high availability, and simple to install, manage, and grow over time,
　　Honeycomb uses advanced clustering techniques to build large systems
　　from inexpensive components. Honeycomb is designed with a variety of
　　other advanced features including searchability and regulatory
　　compliance that will be announced over time."
どうやらプロジェクトのホームページは無いみたいです。
