The system is logically organized into a three-level hierarchy:
Scales horizontally by adding new storage nodes to clusters of commodity hardware.
The top-level namespace (synonymous with an OpenStack Project or Tenant ).
is an open-source, highly available, and eventually consistent object storage system designed for scale and durability . Unlike traditional file systems that use a hierarchical structure, Swift stores data as objects within a flat namespace, making it ideal for large volumes of unstructured data like backups, media files, and images. Core Concepts of Swift Storage
Fully accessible via a REST-based API using standard HTTP/HTTPS calls.
Data is typically replicated three times across different failure domains to ensure durability.
Can be configured as an S3 endpoint using middleware like Swift3 , allowing it to work with tools like the AWS CLI or Boto3 . Implementing and Managing Swift
