Description
Currently all replay files are stored on local disk. This work for most use cases as these file don't represent a large amount of data. It would be better to allow these files to be stored elsewhere, possibly a distributed filesystem or the like.
Pchyderm's PFS could be well suited for this use case.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by locating the code that stores and reads replay files, then trace how local-disk paths are passed through the replay workflow. Define the storage-backend boundary and verify that local storage remains supported while an alternate or distributed backend can be supplied; the issue names Pchyderm's PFS as a possible option.
