About JuiceFS

JuiceFS is an open-source distributed file system designed for cloud environments, offering high performance, cost-effectiveness, and multi-protocol compatibility. It separates data and metadata, allowing users to leverage cost-efficient object storage for data while using various open-source databases (like Redis, PostgreSQL, TiKV) or a proprietary distributed metadata service for metadata management. This architecture enables independent scaling of data and metadata components, addressing data hotspots and supporting billions of files. It is built for developers and organizations seeking a flexible and scalable storage solution for diverse applications, including AI/Machine Learning, Big Data, and Kubernetes data persistence. JuiceFS supports POSIX, HDFS, and S3 protocols, making it suitable for both new application development and seamless migration of existing workloads. It caters to public clouds, hybrid setups, and multi-cloud scenarios, facilitating automatic data replication and resilient architectures. The Community Edition is open-source under the Apache 2.0 license, while Cloud Service and Enterprise Edition offer additional features like higher availability SLAs, advanced metadata engines, and professional support.
