Storage

Object storage for backups, media, and exports

The service exposes containers and objects that you can manage through the console and API on top of a Ceph-backed, S3-compatible storage layer: create, upload, download, copy, delete, and add metadata.

Containers and objects

Create containers, list their content, and organise files by logical space instead of attached disk.

Upload, download, and copy

The API lets you send, download, delete, or copy an object between containers without changing service.

Ceph-backed S3 compatibility

The service runs on Ceph and can fit S3-oriented use cases while the platform still exposes container and object semantics in its current workflow.

Metadata and usage tracking

Add metadata on objects and track both file counts and stored size per container.

How It Works

1

Create a container

Name the container that will hold a set of files, backups, or exports.

2

Add your objects

Upload files through the console or object API, then review stored size and object count.

3

Add metadata

Store custom object metadata when you need lightweight context without changing the file format itself.

4

Download, copy, or delete

Use the same API to copy an object, download it, or delete it when it is no longer needed.

Common Use Cases

Backups and exports

Store dumps, exports, and project archives in separate containers so file sets stay easy to manage.

Application backupsAccounting exportsArchive bundles

Media libraries and files

Keep images, videos, documents, or application-generated files separate from compute and block storage.

Data Pipelines

Use a container as a handoff area for imports, batch processing, or intermediate files.
