Is there a stand for object storage?


openstack swift supposedly but this is a slightly incompatible S3 implementation that nothing else talks.

The filesystem works pretty well though ;)


Ceph / librados provides a compatible layer on top of S3 and Swift.

Swift3 speaks aws4 auth now. The real problem is S3 clients that expect an amazon signed cert. No good way to fake that nicely.
