Abstract: To leverage the attributes of object storage for applications/systems created to interface with a network files system, an object storage backed file system can accept the defined file system commands from the applications/systems and transform the file system commands into requests that target object storage. The file system is "backed" by object storage because attributes and content of file system entities are stored in objects. For instance, content data and metadata of a file are stored in objects in object storage. This object storage backed file system can be considered a bridge between a client perceived hierarchical file system namespace and a flat namespace of an object storage.

Abstract translation: 为了利用对象存储的属性创建与网络文件系统接口的应用程序/系统，对象存储支持的文件系统可以接受来自应用程序/系统的定义的文件系统命令，并转换文件 系统命令转换为目标对象存储的请求。 文件系统被“支持” 通过对象存储，因为文件系统实体的属性和内容存储在对象中。 例如，文件的内容数据和元数据存储在对象存储中的对象中。 这种支持对象存储的文件系统可以被认为是客户端感知的分层文件系统名称空间和对象存储的平面名称空间之间的桥梁。

Abstract: To leverage the attributes of object storage for applications/systems configured to interface with a network type file system, an object storage backed file system can accept the defined file system commands from the applications/systems and transform the file system commands into requests that target object storage. The file system is "backed" by object storage because attributes and content of file system entities are stored in objects. For instance, content data and metadata of a file are stored in objects in object storage. This object storage backed file system can be considered a bridge between a client perceived hierarchical file system namespace and a flat namespace of an object storage.
