Red Hat Gluster Storage, formerly Red Hat Storage Server, is a computer storage product from Red Hat. It is based on open source technologies such as GlusterFS and Red Hat Enterprise Linux.[2]

In April 2014, Red Hat re-branded GlusterFS-based Red Hat Storage Server to "Red Hat Gluster Storage".[5]
