Lustre is an Open Source distributed file system, generally used for large scale cluster computing. The name is a merge of Linux and clusters. The project aims to provide a file system to cope with clusters of tens of thousands of nodes with petabytes of storage capacity, without compromising on speed or security, and is available under the GNU GPL.

Cluster File Systems are the designers, developers, and maintainers of Lustre.

Many of the fastest supercomputers in the world are clusters using the Lustre file system for storage.
