S3 Server‘s multi-cloud support includes AWS S3, In-memory, RING, and Docker Volume. An extended set of storage services are available with Docker Volume, including Google Cloud, NetApp, Inc., HPE 3PAR, Azure File Storage. Based on a pluggable cloud repository module, the S3 Server can be enhanced to support any private or public cloud data service and allows the same S3 API interface to be used with any data backend.

Companies today do not use just a single cloud service, but use many. However, until now, there was no S3 data service that could provide highly available service across any private or public cloud,” said Giorgio Regni, CTO, Scality. “This new Scality S3 Server release provides the simplest on-ramp to object storage. It is cloud provider independent, meaning users decide on the optimal cloud storage option for their data. It is the easiest, most flexible, and scalable way to store vast amounts of unstructured data, and it empowers developers and enterprises to leverage this simplicity for free.

S3 Server was first released in June 2016 and many enhancements have been made since. This latest release satisfies customer demand for HA and support for Docker Swarm, a clustering and scheduling tool for Docker containers. S3 Server is resistant to server failures with automatic recovery of service. Together, S3 Server and Docker Swarm optimise this HA, allowing users to sustain one or more server losses while uninterruptedly continuing with normal storage system operations.

Based on RING technology, which has more than 500 million users, the S3 Server is production-proven for extreme data workloads. For customers who require comprehensive enterprise capabilities, the same S3 server interface is available with RING. This extends advanced enterprise data availability features, including reinforced security, access controls, and complete scale-out ability, all with guaranteed uptime. RING also supports essential enterprise protocols such as single sign-on, Microsoft Active Directory, and LDAP.
