It's a very high performance filesystem (one of the highest, in fact), but it's not high availabilty. So, you have to rely on RAID, but a storage node could still easily fail. The metadata server failover is also pretty vanilla. It's mainly designed around large compute clusters, not web hosting, where downtime *will* kill you, not just make you bleed. You might try looking at IBRIX. It's an all-software solution that's $12k/yr and $22k/3yr, which makes it pretty cheap. Well, I can say that you shouldn’t pick Lustre if those are requirements.
