Hi all, I can see that cloudstack has S3 support , and we can enable the S3 flag in Cloudstack. However, I want to know if I can let user create storage buckets and give users a key with which they can put data into these storage buckets. I think, I can have my own huge single NFS storage server, and as the user come I can assign buckets on the server.
Let me know if this is possible from cloudstack, if yes then which API documentation can help me find a solution. Thanks and Regards.

However the reliability, durability and scalability are guaranteed by the choice of filesystem. For example if the filesystem is an NFS mount provided by a NetApp server, the reliability properties of the NetApp server would apply.
