Hi Team
We are working on nextflow pipelines on Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Environment.
I was wondering if Fusion File system is compatible with OCI so that we utilized the POSIX attachment.
Thanks

Hi Samuel,
The short answer is yes, it works! We’ve tested Fusion with OCI Object Storage successfully, though it isn’t “officially” supported just yet.
The main thing to watch out for is performance. To get that POSIX speed, you need to make sure your compute host has a fast local disk (like an NVMe) mounted and available at /tmp inside the container. This is where Fusion handles its caching, so if that disk is slow, the whole pipeline will be too.
Give it a shot and let us know how it goes!
