- Efficient file interfaces across different object stores
- Coherent namespace and unified access control across both interfaces
- Support multiple object stores
- Portable across multiple operating systems
What does it have inside?
- Redis
- Supports Amazon S3, Openstack Swift, Google Cloud Storage
- Python
