Apache 2.0 foundation
Open-source licensing keeps adoption, redistribution, and commercial deployment straightforward.
RustFS is a next-generation Apache 2.0 distributed object storage system built in Rust. It has surpassed 30,000 GitHub stars, 3 million Docker Hub pulls, and 1.5 million global instances across S3-compatible and AI data center workloads.
RustFS manages object, bucket, IAM, lifecycle, and cluster workflows while keeping 100% native S3 compatibility stable for existing tools and applications.
Open-source licensing keeps adoption, redistribution, and commercial deployment straightforward.
Applications keep speaking the same object storage protocol while RustFS owns the storage layer.
Native RDMA, DPU acceleration, and hardware encryption are core directions for future data center workloads.
Console, rc CLI, and telemetry workflows are designed for teams that run their own storage.
