Distributed Object Store

A Distributed Object Store is a system that manages and stores data as objects across multiple computers or servers, rather than in traditional files or blocks. Each object includes data, metadata (descriptive information), and a unique identifier. This setup allows the data to be easily accessed, scaled, and managed across a distributed environment, providing high availability and fault tolerance. It is commonly used for large-scale storage needs, like cloud services, where data must be efficiently stored, retrieved, and maintained across many locations seamlessly.
