Davix is an open-source client for WebDAV and Amazon S3 available for Microsoft Windows, Apple MacOSX and Linux. Davix is written in C++ and provide several command-line tools and a C++ shared library.[2][3]

Davix is a tool for remote I/O, file transfer and file management based on the HTTP protocol.

Davix is used at CERN by several projects, including the ROOT data analysis framework,[4][5] the File Transfer Services (FTS),[6] the European Middleware Initiative gfal2 library [7][8] or the dynamic storage federation project.[9]
