<p>Hello,</p>

<p>The idea behind what I described, is to provide SMB shares with automatic placement based on usage pattern.</p>

<p>Archiving "the old way" (I mean manually moving the files to a cold tier) is not convenient, it breaks URLs, unless someone has some tips about this.</p>

<p>I'm able to do the scenario described with normal Gluster nodes, some local with costly storage, some remotes with cheap storage. It's just tiering.</p>
<p>But I still have to manage the Linux behind the cold tier. Not interesting to me as AWS, Google or whatever can provide cheap object storage without maintenance (that means, less people in my organization to achieve the same job).</p>

Never tried this before. Maybe S3QL [1] works since it "is<br>
a standard conforming, full featured UNIX file system that is<br>
conceptually indistinguishable from any local file system".<br>

<br>
The entire approach sounds a bit hackish to me though. :-)<br>
