Swift S3 compatibility
Overview and example configuration
Overview
Swift provides an S3 compatible API for applications that don’t support the Swift API. Note that you need to create EC2 credentials for this to work.
NOTE: The S3 region must be set to “us-east-1” for compatibility with “AWS Signature Version 4”
NOTE: If the application does support Swift natively, using Swift will provide superior performance and generally a better experience.
Example s3cmd configuration
The configuration below works with s3cmd:
[default]
access_key = 00000000000000000000000000000
secret_key = 00000000000000000000000000000
host_base = swift.elastx.cloud
host_bucket = swift.elastx.cloud
use_https = True
bucket_location = us-east-1
