AFAIK it still uses a classical file system, just with a DQL system layered on top. I am talking about completely scrapping the idea of file systems, folders, the lot of it. A central database that stores all blobs, configurations, info, and other metadata (modified, created, revision history, diffs, keys, tags, and authority). This would enable real time distributed scalable systems, potentially immutable backups, and a lot more (such as fully auditable data transfers, messaging, access, and more for rapid debugging).
If an operationg system was built today for tomorrow it would certainly be built on/as a database.
