[gpfsug-discuss] Alternative to Scale S3 API.

[Andi Christiansen]

Hi Christian,

Thanks for the information! My question also triggered IBM to tell me the same so i think we will stay on S3 with Scale and hoping the same with the new release..

Yes, MinIO is really lacking some good documentation.. but definatly a cool software package that i will keep an eye on in the future...

Best Regards
Andi Christiansen

IBM support told me that Spectrum Scale 5.1 will come with a new release of the underlying Openstack components, so we still hope that some/most of limitations will vanish then. But I already know, that the new S3 policies won't be available, only the "legacy" S3 ACLs.
