The interesting part of a decentralized S3 isn't the web interface/Buckets. It's storage classes, lifecycle, permissions, versions, IAM, metadata, tiny files and doing it at scale. @SiaTechHQ protocol cannot handle yet, but #siaprime will w/core dev.https://siaprime.net

What's interesting is Sia actually had a basic S3 front-end via Minio integration back in 2017. The protocol lacks critical capabilities for real enterprise adoption though which stifled adoption. Our assumption is 1 year, working with their improvements and our innovation.

@_Filebase thoughts from the guys who just released a s3 compatible sia protocol service?

simple question, ask them how they set permissions such that the accounting dept can access files that the engineering dept uploads?

I don't see any reason for the Sia renter-host protocol to be concerned with file permissions. The protocol isn't even concerned with files! Files (and their permissions) are handled by abstractions layered on top of the raw storage, much like how a filesystem builds on an HDD.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something though. The word "protocol" is kinda ambiguous; to me, it specifically means "the RPC protocol by which the renter and host communicate." Btw, under that definition, Sia has always supported "tiny files" too -- seehttps://github.com/lukechampine/us

and block storage too, but the current implementation requires a 16k cat.jpg to consume an entire 4MiB sector on host nodes, which at scale will be incredibly inefficient. and most definitely thank you for the "us" tool, it is definitely a blessing for solving outstanding issues

Uploading small files without padding them to 4MB is comming to the Sia protocol too:https://twitter.com/lukechampine/status/1125836714721861632?s=19 …
SiaStats added,
Luke Champine @lukechampineWritable FUSE is coming along nicely. Writes across all open files are cached in memory and only flushed when they fill up a sector, which means we get efficient small files "for free" — no more padding JPEGs to 4MB. And of course, reading or overwriting data in cache is instant. https://twitter.com/lukechampine/status/1111444978914361344 …Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 4 likes
Not coming -- it's been supported since us was first released! :) FUSE just makes it even better.
