Welcome to commons-vfs-grid project

For queries please contact: rt@…

The commons-vfs-grid project is the home of the grid libraries developed on top of the Apache Commons VFS API. The libraries have been developed to support the Storage Resource Broker, GridFTP, and soon in the future the iRODS filesystem. This project is also the home of Hermes VFS UI, which is a flexible user interface built on top of the Apache Commons VFS API.

Hermes is a desktop client tool focused on empowering users to take control of data grid technologies and metadata repositories for their data management needs. Not only focused on users, Hermes has a flexible architecture which focuses on developers who want to connect clients to institutional metadata repositories without having to worry about links to the underlying storage - Hermes does this for you!

Hermes and the commons-vfs-grid library are available under the GNU General Public License.

Please note that if you have an older version of Hermes, it is STRONGLY recommended that you replace it with Hermes 1.0rc10. A security problem with connection persistence has been fixed in this release.
