Our Goals

We made it lightweight and kept the efficiency in mind:

  • As self-contained as possible
  • Easy to set up
  • Made for multi-datacenter deployments
  • Highly resilient to
    network failures, network latency
    disk failures, sysadmin failures

Keeping requirements low

We worked hard to keep requirements as low as possible
as we target the largest possible public:

  • CPU
    Any x86_64 CPU from the last 10 years, ARMv7 or ARMv8
  • RAM
    1 GB
  • Disk space
    At least 16 GB
  • Network
    200 ms or less, 50 Mbps or more
  • Heterogeneous hardware
    Build a cluster with whatever second-hand machines are available

Data resiliency for everyone

We built Garage to suit your existing infrastructure:

Garage implements the Amazon S3 API
and thus is already compatible with many applications.

Standing on the shoulders of giants

We leveraged insights from recent research in distributed systems:

Sponsors and funding
