From the article:
"There are existing distributed file systems for the cloud as well as off-the-shelf FUSE modules for S3. We chose to enhance MezzFS instead of using these other solutions because the cloud storage system where packager stores its output is a custom object store service built on top of S3 with additional security features. Doing so has the added advantage of being able to design and tune the enhancement to suit the requirements of packager and our other encoding applications."
