   Thanks! We plan to publish a feature comparison table soon. A couple more differences: 1. We have strong end-to-end integrity checks and encryption on by default. 2. Amazon EFS's performance is dependent on the filesystem size: larger

   s3fs-fuse is a one-to-one mapping and doesn't do things like atomic rename of directories, mutual exclusion of open exclusive, append to file requires rewriting the whole file and no hard links. This breaks the expectations of many lin

   Hi Ben, thanks for your feedback. We will add more technical details and clarify the differences between objectivefs and s3fs-fuse. ObjectiveFS is a log structured filesystem that we implemented completely from scratch. It is a POSIX filesy

   It's a complete POSIX filesystem, and we implement a log-structured filesystem on top of S3. So, you can use it with your regular programs expecting POSIX semantics. Mounting S3 lets you view the objects in a bucket, but it doesn&#x27

    Thanks for your insightful comment. We are currently competing with NFS, GlusterFS & other distributed file systems. Our software is much easier to use, requires no storage cluster maintenance and has no single point of failure. I like

    We couldn't find a solution either, so we built a posix filesystem with S3 backend backend that is easy to run and scale. If you want to give ObjectiveFS ( https://objectivefs.com ) a try, I'll be happy to hear your feed

    If you need something like EFS today, there is ObjectiveFS ( https://ObjectiveFS.com ), a posix cloud file system with S3 backend. Disclaimer: I am a co-founder :-)
