Show HN: GitHub – I tried to build AWS S3 from scratch


A guide on how to build AWS S3 from scratch on bare-metal using an exclusively open-source technology stack. - anthonybudd/s3-from-scratch

For the past few years I’ve been thinking about how I could build SaaS and deploy it on my own infrastructure without needing to use any cloud platforms like AWS or GCP. In this repo I document my progress on building a clone of AWS S3 that functions the same as S3 (automated bucket deployment, dynamically expanding volumes, security, etc) using an exclusively open-source technology stack. In addition, AWS S3 buckets can store an unlimited amount of data, so my platform will also need to allow a user to have a dynamically increasing volume that will auto-scale based on the storage space required.
