LucidLink Review

LucidLink FilespacesTM, a cloud-native file service for object storage, enables on-demand, remote access to large files, from anywhere. Using LucidLink, organizations can mount and use cloud object storage, such as AWS S3, as if it were a distributed file system. Filespaces streams files from object stores direct to clients, so there’s no need to copy, download, or sync files—ever. By solving the problem of distance and latency in cloud environments, LucidLink dramatically reduces the traffic between applications and remote storage to boost responsiveness and enable efficient, on-demand data streaming. Sophisticated data-prefetching based on a proprietary, adaptive algorithm, along with parallel TCP streams, local write-back caching, and in-line compression, further optimize performance. And with “zero-knowledge,” end-to-end encryption, Filespaces provides best-in-class security for all data both at rest and in-flight.
