Versity Gateway, a simple to use tool for seamless inline translation between AWS S3 object commands and file-based storage systems. The Versity Gateway bridges the gap between S3-reliant applications and file storage systems, enabling enhanced compatibility and integration with file based systems while offering exceptional scalability.
The server translates incoming S3 API requests and transforms them into equivalent operations to the backend service. By leveraging this gateway server, applications can interact with the S3-compatible API on top of already existing storage systems. This project enables leveraging existing infrastructure investments while seamlessly integrating with S3-compatible systems, offering increased flexibility and compatibility in managing data storage.
