<div class="section" id="obs_03_0316__section53108166"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Background Information</h4><ul id="obs_03_0316__ul16365997"><li id="obs_03_0316__li13076248">Unlike a file system, OBS does not involve the concepts of file and folder. For easy data management, OBS provides a method to simulate folders. In OBS, an object is simulated as a folder by adding a slash (/) to the end of the object name on OBS Console. If you call the API to list objects, paths of objects are returned. In an object path, the content following the last slash (/) is the object name. If a path ends with a slash (/), it indicates that the object is a folder. The hierarchical depth of the object does not affect the performance of accessing the object.</li><li id="obs_03_0316__li50577374">OBS Console does not support the download of folders. You can use OBS Browser to download folders.</li></ul>
