JuiceFS
Open Source Distributed POSIX File System for Cloud

JuiceFS is an open-source, cloud-native distributed file system that separates data and metadata storage, using object storage backends alongside engines like Redis, PostgreSQL, and TiKV. It supports POSIX, HDFS, and S3 protocols, making it compatible with a wide range of applications and workloads. It is designed to handle hundreds of billions of files at high throughput and low latency for use cases such as big data, AI, and autonomous driving.
JuiceFS separates data storage (using object storage) from metadata storage (using engines like Redis or TiKV), enabling elastic, high-throughput file access via POSIX, HDFS, and S3 protocols.
