Ceph Object Storage
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
:term:`Ceph Object Storage` is an object storage interface built on top of
|
|
``librgw`` and ``librados`` to provide applications with a RESTful gateway to
|
|
Ceph Storage Clusters. Ceph Object Storage supports two interfaces:
|
|
|
|
#. **S3-compatible:** Provides object storage functionality with an interface
|
|
that is compatible with a large subset of the Amazon S3 RESTful API.
|
|
|
|
#. **Swift-compatible:** Provides object storage functionality with an interface
|
|
that is compatible with a large subset of the OpenStack Swift API.
|
|
|
|
Ceph Object Storage uses the RADOS Gateway daemon (``radosgw``), which is a
|
|
FastCGI module for interacting with ``librgw`` and ``librados``. Since it
|
|
provides interfaces compatible with OpenStack Swift and Amazon S3, RADOS Gateway
|
|
has its own user management. RADOS Gateway can store data in the same Ceph
|
|
Storage Cluster used to store data from Ceph Filesystem clients or Ceph Block
|
|
Device clients. The S3 and Swift APIs share a common namespace, so you may write
|
|
data with one API and retrieve it with the other.
