Dear Chadi,

Thanks for your question! Yes, the Apache OODT CAS currently deals with
large amounts of data, even up
to petabytes (many 100s of TB), and the reality is though it's not
necessarily the CAS that's doing the
only heavy lifting in those environments for the data management pieces.
CAS works side by side with
distributed file systems (HDFS, NFS, Lustre, Gluster, etc.), along with
replicated databases and catalogs
and search engines (RDBMS, Solr, Lucene, Cassandra, HBase, HIVE, etc.) to
manage Big Data while inducing
very limited storage and computational overhead beyond the ingestion,
metadata extraction, data movement
and other step-by-step orchestration that it does.

I would be very happy to discuss a specific use case or concern you have
and thank you for considering
using CAS!

Cheers,
Chris
