The record

Product: ObjectiveFS is a shared distributed POSIX file system providing persistent storage among cloud instances, laptops, containers and office servers.
Architecture: The software runs on your machines and connects directly to an object store through the S3 API without requiring storage clusters or metadata servers.
Object stores: Supported object stores include Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, IBM Cloud Object Storage, Oracle Cloud, DigitalOcean Spaces, Scaleway, Wasabi, Ceph and MinIO.
Concurrent access: Multiple machines can read and write the same filesystem concurrently, with updates visible across machines.
Performance: The product uses workload-adaptive heuristics, advanced caching and bundled writes, with the homepage stating speeds above 550 MB/s read and write per node.
Encryption: Data is encrypted locally with a key known only to the customer and remains encrypted in transit and at rest.
Cryptography: ObjectiveFS uses the NaCl crypto library with Salsa20 and Poly1305 algorithms and protection against cache timing attacks.
Integrity: Cryptographically strong checksums verify data integrity and operations are retried when checksums do not match.
Enterprise security: Enterprise supports AWS server-side encryption with Amazon S3-managed keys and AWS KMS-managed keys.
Snapshots: The product supports automatic and checkpoint snapshots, and snapshots can be mounted as read-only filesystems.
Windows limitation: ObjectiveFS currently does not run natively on Windows, but a Linux machine can export it to Windows through NFS or Samba.
Object-store billing: Object-store charges are billed separately by the object-store provider and are not included in ObjectiveFS pricing.
Maker: ObjectiveFS is a product by Objective Security Corp, a security-focused technology company with over 20 years of history.
Headquarters: Raleigh, North Carolina, United States
Price from: $99/mo
