RustFS is a production-grade, S3-compatible distributed object storage server implemented in Rust. The core system provides erasure-coded storage with healing, bitrot detection, bucket versioning, object locking, lifecycle management, replication (bucket and site), tiering to remote S3-compatible backends, KMS integration, IAM/OIDC/Keystone authentication, audit logging, event notifications, and an extensive observability layer. It also exposes non-S3 protocols including OpenStack Swift, SFTP, FTPS, and WebDAV, plus an admin/console API and an embedded server library for in-process testing and integration. The repository is a large Cargo workspace of roughly 50 crates, with the main `rustfs` binary orchestrating startup, HTTP/gRPC servers, background services, and protocol servers, while domain subsystems such as `ecstore`, `heal`, `scanner`, `replication`, `notify`, `kms`, `iam`, `obs`, and `targets` are isolated behind trait-based contracts and runtime-boundary modules.
