Cs3 Raw 'link' -
Author: AI Research Unit Version: 1.0 Date: 2026-04-14 Abstract The CS3 (Content Storage as a Service) specification defines a rich API for file synchronization, sharing, and collaboration. However, many implementers and integrators find the full stack complex for edge cases: embedded systems, lightweight microservices, or high-throughput pipelines. This paper presents CS3 Raw — a minimal subset of CS3 focusing on raw binary operations (stat, read, write, delete, list) over HTTP. We provide a practical specification, reference implementation patterns, and benchmarks showing near-filesystem latency with cloud scalability. 1. Introduction CS3 (often associated with projects like Reva, CERNBox, and ownCloud Infinite Scale) defines a gRPC-based API for managing content across heterogeneous storage systems. The full CS3 API includes sharing, public links, metadata dictionaries, versioning, workflows, and garbage collection.
