S3QL is a file system that stores all its data online using storage
|
|
services like Google Storage, Amazon S3, or OpenStack. S3QL
|
|
effectively provides a hard disk of dynamic, infinite capacity that
|
|
can be accessed from any computer with internet access running
|
|
Linux, FreeBSD or OS-X.
|
|
|
|
S3QL is a standard conforming, full featured UNIX file system
|
|
that is conceptually indistinguishable from any local file
|
|
system. Furthermore, S3QL has additional features like compression,
|
|
encryption, data de-duplication, immutable trees and snapshotting
|
|
which make it especially suitable for online backup and archival.
|
|
|
|
S3QL is designed to favor simplicity and elegance over performance and
|
|
feature-creep. Care has been taken to make the source code as readable
|
|
and serviceable as possible. Solid error detection and error handling
|
|
have been included from the very first line, and S3QL comes with
|
|
extensive automated test cases for all its components.
