Garage "unnecessarily complex" . If anything it's the simplest solution in the list especially compared to Ceph or Apache Ozone

Tried setting up rustfs today. It was easier that garagehq and it even comes with UI.

While not obvious from the article, it appears that they want something S3 like, but isn’t from Amazon, and possibly want to self host it. The article could be much more clear about the goals

Sounds like you want S4. Super simple storage service.

Ah, thanks. Yeah I was confused because in his long list of vendors he didn't mention Wasabi, Backblaze etc. It appears that I do not know the context of his post.

Has anyone that has set up microceph determined the overhead of the required multiple OSDs? The docs make it sound scary, but it's not clear if that's because people run it on a Pi with an sdcard for block storage or because someone once ran 18TB of OSDs in production that then fell over.
