Encryption

End-to-end encryption with a key only you hold. Data is encrypted on your servers before it leaves, and stays encrypted in transit and at rest.

Redundancy

Your object store is the storage layer: S3-grade durability and availability, with always-on end-to-end integrity checks above it.

No metadata servers, no intermediate servers, no single point of failure. The client connects your servers straight to the object store.

Why OFS // Architecture

Direct to your object store

The ObjectiveFS client runs on your servers and connects directly to the object store. No hop in between, nothing else to operate.

Cloud, on-premise or both. Switching backends changes nothing in your applications.

Consistent everywhere

Every server sees the same filesystem. Updates on one mount are visible on all mounts, across instances, regions and platforms.

Why OFS // Assurance

Infrastructure that gets out of your way

Storage is the part of the stack that cannot have a bad day. ObjectiveFS has carried production workloads for over a decade on the most durable storage layer in the industry.

Metadata is where network filesystems struggle. This run measures stat(2) calls, forced round-trips (getxattr of an attribute that doesn't exist, so no cache can answer) and cached 1 MB reads, scaling from one thread to all eight cores.

One Namespace // Every Workload

Workload Mix

AI // Machine Learning

Feed training and inference from one shared namespace: datasets, checkpoints and models visible to every node, at the throughput GPUs need. Petabyte-scale data on S3 economics, mounted like a local disk, from workstations to Kubernetes.

Media // Rendering

Render farms, transcode fleets and asset pipelines read and write the same filesystem concurrently. Spin instances up for the job and down when it ships. The storage stays, without a storage cluster's overhead.

Finance // Compliance

Client-side encryption with your keys, immutable and append-only files and directories, point-in-time snapshots and full ACL support: the controls regulated data demands, on infrastructure you control end to end.

Scale-Out // Services

Web fleets, CMS platforms and Kubernetes workloads share file assets across every server and region. Add capacity by adding mounts. Updates propagate to the whole fleet automatically.

Operator Reports // Trusted by the teams who run it

ObjectiveFS has been a fantastic addition to our infrastructure. I don't think I will ever work with S3 without it again. Principal Architect · WeaveUp Inc

Thank you again for your excellent support and innovative product; both make accomplishing a truly scalable WordPress infrastructure on AWS easy. Senior Technical Architect · Fortune 500 company

We tried so many filesystem solutions and ended with ObjectiveFS. It fits our needs in terms of easy, scalable and performance. We also received really great support. Head of Infrastructure · Kaskus

Ownership // Your infrastructure, not ours

Ownership // Your Bucket, Your Account

The data sits in your own object store, in your own cloud account, under your retention rules. We never hold it, and the keys that decrypt it never leave your machines.

Ownership // Nothing of Ours to Operate

No appliance, no metadata tier, no cluster of ours in your environment. The client on your servers is the whole product. It upgrades on your schedule, one machine at a time.

Pricing // Upfront

Plans and prices are on the pricing page, and every plan starts itself. Enterprise is a conversation. Everything else is self-serve.
