• Today’s Internet services demand the storage platform to possess high performance and simple programming interfaces. This paper presents the design and implementation of a distributed objects storage cluster system, which employs Network-Attached Object Storage Device as the low-level storage device to support structured-data directly to eliminate the problem of conventional storage systems. This system provides a unified, transparent and object-oriented view of the storage devices of the whole cluster and greatly simplifies distributed service development. Based on this system, an open source mail server is enhanced to be a distributed one while only a few source files are modified. Testing shows that the performance of this enhanced mail system can achieve 2/3 of the ideal upper limit, which is evidently higher than the original one based on file systems.
