> but why not CephFS? You don't want to offer distributed storage on top of distributed storage. You can't compare rgw and openstack swift, swift also takes care of data storage ( the openstack swift proxy is "similar" to rgw ). For sure you could use 'tricks' like a single replica on swift or ceph, but don't expect great performance. It sounds like a terrible idea. Also, it's probably easier to update your infrastructure rather than deploy/learn/maintain openstack swift.
