nbdkit - NBD server
- Description:
NBD is a protocol for accessing block devices (hard disks and
disk-like things) over the network.
'nbdkit' is a toolkit for creating NBD servers.
The key features are:
* Multithreaded NBD server written in C with good performance.
* Well-documented, simple plugin API with a stable ABI guarantee.
Allows you to export "unconventional" block devices easily.
* Liberal license (BSD) allows nbdkit to be linked to proprietary
libraries or included in proprietary code.
You probably want to install one of more plugins (nbdkit-plugin-*).
To develop plugins, install the nbdkit-devel package and start by
reading the nbdkit(1) and nbdkit-plugin(3) manual pages.
