#storage

HN latched onto Artifacts because it treats Git not as a human workflow, but as storage for millions of agent sessions.

Werner Vogels used S3 Files to argue that storage primitives need to adapt to agentic software and data-heavy pipelines, not just object APIs. Hacker News is reading the launch as an attempt to cut the copy-and-sync tax between S3 and traditional file-based tooling.

Hugging Face has launched Storage Buckets, a mutable and non-versioned object storage layer for checkpoints, processed data, logs, and agent traces on the Hub. The company says Xet-based deduplication and cloud pre-warming should make large ML workflows faster and cheaper to operate.
