The package provides client-side APIs to create and manage buckets, upload and retrieve objects, and perform ETL operations on stored data. It includes native PyTorch integration for efficient data loading in training pipelines and a Botocore patch for S3-compatible access patterns.\n\nThe SDK depends on 13 common libraries (requests, pydantic, msgspec, tenacity, and others) to handle HTTP communication, data validation, serialization, and retry logic. It targets developers working with large-scale distributed storage, machine learning infrastructure, and high-performance computing environments where object storage efficiency matters.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you are working with AIStore clusters or need distributed object storage integration in Python. The package is actively maintained, has no known vulnerabilities, installs with low friction, and is licensed permissively. Most valuable for machine learning and high-performance computing teams."},"id":"aistore","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aistore","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/aistore.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/aistore/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-05-20","license_spdx":"MIT","license_treatment":"permissive","name":"aistore","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Client-side APIs to access and utilize clusters, buckets, and objects on AIStore."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":149433,"position":10992,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"1.25.0"}
