{{Short description|File system that allows many clients to have access}}
A '''distributed file system for cloud''' is a [[w:file system|file system]] that allows many clients to have access to data and supports operations (create, delete, modify, read, write) on that data. Each data file may be partitioned into several parts called [[Chunk (information)|chunks]]. Each chunk may be stored on different remote machines, facilitating the parallel execution of applications. Typically, data is stored in files in a [[Hierarchical tree structure|hierarchical tree]], where the nodes represent directories. There are several ways to share files in a distributed architecture: each solution must be suitable for a certain type of application, depending on how complex the application is. Meanwhile, the security of the system must be ensured. [[w:Confidentiality|Confidentiality]], [[w:Availability|availability]] and [[w:Integrity|integrity]] are the main keys for a secure system.
