High-performance S3-compatible object storage

MinIO is a high-performance, S3-compatible object storage server designed for AI, machine learning, and data-intensive workloads. Written in Go, it delivers industry-leading throughput for both read and write operations while maintaining full compatibility with the Amazon S3 API. MinIO includes an embedded web console for bucket management, a command-line client, and supports erasure coding, bitrot protection, and encryption at rest for enterprise-grade data durability.

Cloud-native POSIX filesystem on object storage

JuiceFS is a high-performance distributed POSIX filesystem built on object storage like S3 and metadata engines like Redis or MySQL. It enables seamless data sharing across thousands of clients with low latency and elastic throughput. JuiceFS ships with a Kubernetes CSI driver, Hadoop SDK compatibility, and FUSE mount support for AI training, big data analytics, and shared storage workloads. Apache 2.0 licensed with 13K+ GitHub stars.

High-performance S3-compatible object storage built in Rust

RustFS is an open-source distributed object storage system built entirely in Rust, offering 2.3x faster performance than MinIO for small object payloads. It provides full S3 API compatibility, enabling seamless migration from MinIO, Ceph, and AWS S3 with existing SDKs and CLI tools. Released under Apache 2.0 license, it avoids MinIO's restrictive AGPL terms. Features include distributed architecture, erasure coding, WORM compliance, encryption via RustyVault, and a web management console.
