Object Storage and POSIX Mix

[Scottix <scottix@xxxxxxxxx>]

I saw this article on Linux Today and immediately thought of Ceph.

http://www.enterprisestorageforum.com/storage-management/object-storage-vs.-posix-storage-something-in-the-middle-please-1.html

I was thinking would it theoretically be possible with RGW to do a GET and set a BEGIN_SEEK and OFFSET to only retrieve a specific portion of the file. 

The other option to append data to a RGW object instead of rewriting the entire object.

And so on...

Just food for thought.
