Swift-compatible API
|
|
======================
|
|
|
|
RADOS Gateway provides a scalable, highly available redundant object storage
|
|
API that is compatible with a subset of the `OpenStack Swift`_ API. The
|
|
Swift-compatible API provides a container-based object storage, with support
|
|
for multiple users, storage containers, and access control lists (ACLs).
|
|
This API makes it possible to use a RADOS storage cluster as a Swift-compatible
|
|
object storage system, while simultaneously supporting Ceph FS and RADOS block
|
|
devices too (*e.g.*, you can use it for your Rackspace Cloud Files).
|
|
|
|
.. note:: The popular Amazon S3 API uses the term 'bucket' to describe a data
|
|
container. When you hear someone refer to a 'bucket' within the Swift API,
|
|
the term 'bucket' may be construed as the equivalent of the term 'container.'
