==Objects==
Objects are similar to files in a traditional file system, but are enhanced with an increased amount of and capacity for [[metadata]]. As with containers, they may be accessed by either name or OID. When accessed by name, clients use [[Uniform Resource Locator|URLs]] that contain the full pathname of objects to [[create, read, update and delete]] them. When accessed by OID, the URL specifies an OID string in the '''cdmi-objectid''' container; this container presents a flat name space conformant with standard object storage system semantics.
Subject to system limits, objects may be of any size or type and have arbitrary user-supplied metadata attached to them. Systems that support query allow arbitrary queries to be run against the metadata.
