BOSS-F Distributed File-Object Storage System
BOSS-F, independently developed by Xiaoyun Technology, is a production-grade distributed file-object storage solution designed for unstructured data storage in sectors such as healthcare (massive medical data), finance (ticket imaging), AI training/autonomous driving, and smart manufacturing. It delivers high performance, reliability, scalability, and ease of maintenance, having undergone rigorous testing in production environments across healthcare, financial services, and advanced manufacturing industries.
Product Features
Advanced Distributed Architecture
Adopts a "distributed storage, centralized management" architecture, unifying massive scalability with operational simplicity.
Small File Aggregation Optimization
Consolidates numerous small files into larger managed units, reducing file counts by up to 99% and enabling management of 100+ billion files—all transparent to applications, requiring no code modifications.
NAS Storage Replacement
Supports file access protocols (NFS, FTP, Samba, WebDav) to replace traditional NAS storage, providing a distributed NAS foundation with multi-protocol access, massive file management, high concurrency, scalability, and stability.
Product Advantages
Reliable & Controllable
Fully自主研发 (indigenous R&D), compliant with信创 (IT application innovation) standards, and validated in production environments like medical PACS and financial e-ticketing.
High Performance
Optimized across architecture, filesystem, I/O scheduling, event-driven/thread-pool concurrency models, and zero-copy buffer management. Achieves industry-leading performance, e.g., >300 images/second retrieval in PACS scenarios.
Uncompromised Small File Performance
Reduces managed file counts by 100–200x through aggregation, minimizing storage waste from write amplification and limiting performance degradation to <5% at 10+ billion files, enabling 100+ billion-file scalability.
Unified File-Object Access
Enables seamless data access via both file and object protocols without performance loss. Metadata retains hierarchical file structures and object bucket information, ensuring unified management and interoperability.
Application Scenarios
Medical PACS Imaging
PACS (Picture Archiving and Communication System) manages digital medical images from CT, MR, US, X-ray, and other devices. BOSS-F’s high-performance storage addresses PACS’s demands for small-file handling, scalability, and reliability, proven in leading tertiary hospitals nationwide.
Financial E-Ticket Imaging
Supports storage, archiving, and retrieval of massive financial documents (e.g., deposit slips, loan contracts, audio/video records) for efficient data processing and management.
Industrial Internet (Smart Manufacturing)
Provides high-performance, reliable storage for unstructured data (images, videos, files) in industrial IoT, enabling real-time quality inspection, 7x24 data ingestion, and rapid retrieval for growing production datasets.
Mass Data Backup & Archiving
Targets PB-to-100PB-scale data for rapid backup/recovery and cost-effective long-term preservation. Outperforms traditional backup architectures in speed and reliability for financial/medical unstructured data.
