SeaweedFS can work very well with just the object store. [[Filer]] can then be added later to support directories and POSIX attributes. Filer is a separate linearly-scalable stateless server with customizable metadata stores, e.g., MySql/Postgres/Redis/Cassandra/LevelDB. SeaweedFS can work very well with just the object store.
