We started CallFS after yet another late-night “why did the uploads vanish?” incident. Our small team had stitched together rsync, a fragile NFS mount, and an S3 bucket—none of it observable, all of it waiting to bite us. So we wrote a single-process file service in Go that: • Speaks the S3 API (so existing tooling works). • Stores hot data on local disks for speed; cold data can sit in any S3-compatible bucket. • Exposes Prometheus metrics and JSON logs by default, because “what happened?” shouldn’t be guesswork. • Ships as a ~25 MB static binary—no external deps, MIT license. Today it’s…

Hey HN, AWS S3 Express One Zone promises improved latency and throughput but comes with several limitations including only being available in one availability zone and the directory bucket structure. We developed Accelerated Cloud Storage to offer an object storage system with high performance (up to 10X better than S3 Express One Zone in latency and throughput), strong consistency and global availability that scales and moves data based on demand. The service is accessible through an S3 compatible Go/Python SDK. ACS has enterprise-grade security compliance (SOC 2 Type 2 pending), and a…

Hello HN! We’re Dan and Vaughan, based in Cambridge, UK. We recently launched cunoFS, a filesystem for fast, POSIX object storage access. Yes, we’ve heard that “Object Storage is just not suitable for POSIX workloads” or that “workloads should be rewritten to natively support S3”. But what if it could be? And often much faster than S3-native apps? We’ve worked hard to make this possible, without the shortcomings of other approaches. Summary here: - Run (unmodified) applications with S3/AZ/GCP or “S3 compatible” storage, for example: ls s3:// az://…
