EpochFS
EpochFS is a versioned cloud file system with git-like branching, transaction support.
Motivation
EpochFS is inspired by delta Lake and lakeFS, it is a data lake but for files, offering git-like branching, transaction support, and scaling to handle exabyte-level data effortlessly.
Features in minds
In my minds, EpochFS will support the following features:
- A library that allows users to integrate and operate EpochFS directly within their applications.
- A FUSE implementation enabling users to mount EpochFS as a local file system.
- Support for both serverless mode and meta-server mode:
- Serverless Mode: EpochFS stores all metadata within the storage.
- Meta-Server Mode: EpochFS offloads all metadata to a separate server and commits changes to the storage layer, ensuring eventual consistency.
- Capability to seamlessly convert an existing bucket into EpochFS at no cost.
- Functionality to export and restore an EpochFS instance.
- Support for multiple storage backends, including S3, GCS, and Azure Blob Storage.
Current Plan
The current plan is implement the basic functionalities of EpochFS and provide a library that allows users to integrate and operate EpochFS directly within their applications.
