PySpark jobs on JuiceFS benefit from its Hadoop-compatible interface and local cache for repeated dataset reads.
Python data engineers use SeaweedFS's S3-compatible API with boto3 to store and retrieve pipeline artifacts, model binaries, and intermediate data files. Its optimized handling of billions of small files makes it a good fit for storing ML training sample files or pipeline checkpoint files that would create excessive metadata overhead in traditional distributed file systems.
