# Cloudera Object Store

Scale to billions of objects with full S3 compatibility and a lower TCO with the modern object store for analytics and AI, powered by Apache Ozone.

## The modern storage foundation for analytics and AI.

**Modernize beyond HDFS:** Scale to billions of objects and support 5x denser storage nodes to dramatically lower your TCO.

**Unify all workloads:** Run S3-native AI and cloud applications alongside your existing Spark and Hive analytic jobs on one platform.

**Improve resilience and efficiency:** Cut storage overhead by 50% with erasure coding and ensure high availability with a modern architecture.

#### Breaks the 400-million-file limit of Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS). Natively scales to 10-billion objects and beyond, solving the "small files problem" for good.

#### Provides a native S3 API for modern AI/ML workloads (TensorFlow, PyTorch) and a Hadoop-compatible file system for existing analytics (Spark, Hive).

#### Move from 100TB HDFS nodes to 500TB+ nodes. This 5x density drastically reduces your data center footprint, power, and cooling costs.

#### Replace 3x data replication with efficient erasure coding (e.g., RS 6+3), cutting your storage overhead by 50% or more while maintaining data durability.

#### Features an Active-Active architecture for metadata, eliminating the HDFS NameNode bottleneck and enabling much faster cluster restarts and recovery.

#### Create instantaneous, bucket-level snapshots for point-in-time backup, disaster recovery, and compliance with no performance impact.
