ZeroFS makes S3 storage feel like a real filesystem. It provides file-level access via NFS and 9P and block-level access via NBD.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- NFS Server – Mount as a network filesystem on any OS.
- 9P Server – High-performance alternative with better POSIX semantics.
- NBD Server – Access as raw block devices for ZFS, databases, or any filesystem.
- Always Encrypted – ChaCha20-Poly1305 encryption with compression.
- High Performance – Multi-layered caching with microsecond latencies.
- S3 Compatible – Works with any S3-compatible storage.
