FiberFS

FiberFS is a POSIX filesystem that uses S3 compatible storage as a backend.

Features

• FiberFS supports reading, writing, seeking, overwriting, appending, and other standard POSIX operations. FiberFS supports both chunk and (full) file based operations.
• FiberFS only uses S3 GET, HEAD, PUT, and DELETE operations.
• FiberFS stores filesystem metadata as plain standalone JSON in S3.
• FiberFS is 100% CDN compatible. All data can be fully cached, including metadata. No cache synchronization, invalidation, or specialized caching rules required. Anything can be cached anywhere.
• FiberFS does not require 3rd party products, databases, or servers. FiberFS is a single standalone client based binary (Linux Fuse based). An S3 compatible storage API is the only requirement.
• FiberFS fully supports multi-process and multi-host concurrency. FiberFS clients can read, write, self synchronize and conflict merge across multiple instances using only S3 (HTTP conditionals support required). Clients are always presented with a consistent and versioned view of the filesystem.
• FiberFS has a built-in clustered cache, allowing for scale out read performance. Cache write thru is also supported, meaning no round trips required to read after writes. Fully spliced IO is also supported.
• FiberFS can keep a configurable window of operations available for rollback.
• FiberFS supports content compression and checksums.
• FiberFS can import existing S3 based content and export chunk based files as a single file, allowing for full interop with other S3 applications.
• FiberFS was built ground up around S3, HTTP, and HTTP caching semantics.
• FiberFS is both a simple and easy to use S3 storage filesystem and a high performance distributed cacheable anywhere filesystem.
