A method and system for providing unified local storage support for file and cloud access is disclosed. The method comprises writing a chunk on a storage server, and replicating the chunk to other selected storage servers when necessary. The method and system further comprise writing a version manifest on the storage server; replicating the version manifest to other selected storage servers when necessary. Object puts or appends are implemented by first chunking the object, determining if the chunks are new, transferring the chunks if required, followed by creation of a new version manifest referencing the chunks. Finally, the method and system include providing concurrent file-oriented read and write access consistent with the stored version manifests and chunks.
