Hi, > How do I use object storage ? gluster-swift is the "object storage" that you are looking for. However, it depends on Openstack Swift (which can be installed independently i.e without rest of OpenStack). There's a quick guide on how to set up gluster-swift here: https://github.com/gluster/gluster-swift/blob/havana/doc/markdown/quick_start_guide.md
And no, gluster-swift cannot be used to store key-value pairs or be used without Openstack Swift. There's a plan to make gluster-swift use libgfapi in future versions.

Using the libgfapi to operate these as files on a distributed-replicate brick takes about 5 minutes. There is no requirement to operate these as files (only require store, retrieve – they can be as objects). How do I use the object storage? Any examples for object storage to save these as key-value pairs instead of being stored as individual files? Would like to avoid using an additional product on top of gluster such as swift if possible.
