Ceph Object Storage Overview, Capabilities and Future Plans
summary
rgw is a high‑fidelity S3/Swift HTTP object gateway that scales to hundreds of petabytes in a single cluster and supports bucket namespaces into the hundreds of thousands and per-bucket object counts up to 500 million (targeting a billion). Recent work moves heavy index work out of OMAP into queued RADOS ops, adds active‑active synchronous replication, implements S3 Select with full Parquet and JSON support, end‑to‑end Jaeger tracing, index recovery, and a modular Zipper API plus a d4n cache/filter prototype — most features are upstream or in MVP form.
