Abstract
Accessing persistent storage from Java usually means talking to the file system through the frugal Java file system abstraction, i.e., the File class. Currently, there is no platform-independent way to directly talk to a single local or remote storage device, yet alone a device pool. jSCSI aims to fill this gap by implementing the iSCSI protocol right in Java. We believe that firstly, Java is mature enough to cleanly implement well-performing low-level storage protocols and secondly, that it would be very convenient to plug a terabyte-sized iSCSI RAID into the local network and immediately connect to it from any JVM.
