Ask HN: Universal File Access Layer?

Does anyone have a universal file access layer / library to recommend which can be run local and works across various protocols, cloud providers and auth mechanisms ideally with an API?

rclone, Apache VFS, GoCloud.dev ?

Thank you, looks like GoCloud.dev would be the closest. I was surprized Aapache VPF didn't have any cloud proivders such as S3 built in.

I have had to build these kinds of abstractions several times in the past and figured there must be something out there already but haven't found anything.
