We did a thing! Eight weeks into our Hugging Face tenure, we can demo a round-trip of Xet-backed files from our local machine to a prod Hugging Face S3 bucket and back. 🚀
It’s been exciting to dive into how the Hub is built and design our steel thread through the infrastructure. Now that the thread is up, we can kick off project Capacious Extremis 🪄 to add all the other goodies: authentication, authorization, deduplication, privacy, and more.
What does this mean for you? You’re one step closer to ⚡ faster downloads, uploads, and iterative development on Hugging Face Hub! This is our first step toward replacing Git LFS as the Hub's storage backend: https://huggingface.co/blog/xethub-joins-hf
Check out the demo on LinkedIn to see the transfer in action: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/annux_youve-heard-of-blue-steel-but-have-activity-7245062126535405568-3cvJ
