ObjectStor is a highly scalable and redundant cloud storage service that is designed to complement the NephoScale Cloudlet Virtual Servers and On-Demand BareMetal Dedicated Cloud Servers to make complex computing applications easier to implement and scale. NephoScale integrates with 3rd Party applications such as Gladinet and Duplicati so you can write your own applications that interact with cloud storage using the NephoScale API. This enables the ISV community to seamlessly integrate their applications with cloud storage. The architectural elements of ObjectStor cloud storage are:

ObjectStor utilizes Fuse to support non-native file systems within Linux. The Fuse application presents a file system mount into cloud storage and allows objects and containers to be displayed as folders and files. You can access Fuse through any of our Linux distributions and it provides a comfortable environment for common file operations such as copy, move and rename. This is also a common mechanism for supporting bulk operations such as batch file transfers.
NephoScale’s storage API allows you to leverage scripting languages such as python to perform storage manipulations. Common examples include backup of objects, searching directories and files and moving them into cloud storage or walking a set of directories and files for transfer your cloud. NephoScale also supports multiple bindings that allow various scripting languages to integrate with the NephoScale cloud storage API.
NephoScale offers three ways to access cloud storage: explorer, fuse and through our storage API. The ObjectStor Explorer interface provides a familiar look and feel that allows you to access files through a web browser anytime from anywhere in the world. Its ease of use and flexibility provides the optimal method for moving files in and out of your cloud storage.
