[ckan-dev] local filestore 'bucket' configuration

Mon Apr 8 19:59:20 UTC 2013

Hi George,

Don't worry, that's part of Pairtree. You can read
https://confluence.ucop.edu/display/Curation/PairTree to understand, but
basically:

Pairtree is a filesystem hierarchy for holding objects that are located by
> mapping identifier strings to object directory (or folder) paths *two
> characters at a time.* Pairtrees have the advantage that many object
> operations, including backup and restore, can be performed with native
> operating system tools.

Cheers,
Vítor Baptista.
