Is there any open source S3 compatible software? I know Riak Cloud Storage ( http://docs.basho.com/riak/cs/2.1.1/ ), but I think it’s not maintained anymore.

I believe minio.io provides open source S3 compatible storage on your own servers.

True

The rclone project supports S3

OpenStack Swift or Ceph with Ceph Object Gateway. Don't use minio, it's a toy for testing.

(*) for a particular use case. The example is 200GB storage with 2000GB data transfer (out) every month. That's a LOT of data going out every month, so I am guessing the scenario is if you are hosting a photo library and lots of people are downloading every month. If however you are just using the service as an online storage to hold Not knocking either service - I actually use both, for different use cases.

Plus the SLA is different. It probably should be compared to at least AWS S3 reduced redundancy storage.

What is the durability objects stored with DO? S3 offers 11x9s of durability.

Likewise what is the replication story? Can you get event notifications when objects are uploaded/deleted? Is there versioning? Static website hosting? Lifecycle management?

I've never used it in production; in what ways is minio lacking compared to Swift and Ceph?

.. but with a monthly fee, which kind of breaks the idea of “pay as you go”, atleast for my purpose

Haha, yes.

But I have to admit, the $5 fees some of these new offerings have is probably to filter out some type of customers.
