XFS and Ext4 file system which one is really stable and reliable for long run with heavy disk write and read?the system will be used in a place where 24/7 is in service, and every second there is read and write in the disksystem need to be 99.95 % uptime for about 1 year runsystem need to be maximum downtime in year for about 20 hours maximumWhich file-system is the best choice for such challenge? ( i wanted to use Solaris or FreeBSD but for my project i must have to use Ubuntu or ArchLinux or Fedora or CentOS).But confused with which file system to choose.
XFS vs Ext4 vs Others - which file system is stable, reliable, for long run such as 24/7 case
linux;ubuntu;fedora;filesystems;arch linux
XFS was more fragile, but the issue seems to be fixed.XFS was surely a slow-FS on metadata operations, but it has been fixed recently as well.EXT4 is still getting quite critical fixes as it follows from commits at kernel.org's git.EXT4 does not support concurrent writes, XFS does(But) EXT4 is more mainlineSo, the final answer depends on your precise requirements (as usual).
