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 everyone, I’m Hunter, the founder of Archil. Archil is transforming object storage, like Amazon S3, into infinite, local file systems that provide instant access to massive data sets. Last year, we launched Archil’s NFS-based product publicly on Hacker News (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42174204), and we were absolutely thrilled to see the response of this community. Since our last launch, we took a 10 month company-wide bet to build our own, custom storage protocol to deliver true, local-like performance to cloud instances – by behaving closer to a block storage…

S2 was on HN for our intro blog post a year ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42480105). S2 started out as a serverless API — think S3, but for streams. The idea of streams as a cloud storage primitive resonated with a lot of folks, but not having an open source option was a sticking point for adoption – especially from projects that were themselves open source! So we decided to build it: https://github.com/s2-streamstore/s2 s2-lite is MIT-licensed, written in Rust, and uses SlateDB (https://slatedb.io) as its storage engine. SlateDB is an…

SandCrab▲152Hello HN. SandCrab is an app I originally had the idea for and hacked together over a couple of weekends last October. More recently, I’ve been working on adding new features to it as I use it more as my daily tool to interact with my s3 buckets. A few recent features I am excited about include the ability to search across all of your buckets using wildcards and regular expressions as well as searching and filtering by metadata (e.g. content type, file size, date created, etc). I’ve also added support for configuring and generating presigned urls directly in the app which is nice. The app…

Hi HN, I built a Java library called SmartFileProcessor to make high-performance, multi-threaded file processing simpler and more maintainable. Most Java file processing solutions either involve a lot of boilerplate or don’t handle concurrency, backpressure, or metrics well out of the box. I needed something fast, clean, and production-friendly — so I built this. Key features: Multi-threaded line/batch processing using a configurable thread pool Producer/consumer model with built-in backpressure Buffered, asynchronous writing with optional auto-flush Live metrics: memory usage,…
