   ## Feature Description
   
   Cloudflare has been developing an alternative to traditional storage 
providers, with the benefit that it has no egress fees for the data. 
   
   - [**D1**](https://developers.cloudflare.com/d1) is a relational database 
build on SQLite, which currently is on Alpha. It can be access and manipulated 
through the online GUI on [Cloudflare's 
Dashboard](https://dash.cloudflare.com/) or through the CLI using a npm package 
called 
[wrangler](https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/tree/main/packages/wrangler).
   - [**R2**](https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2) is the Cloudflare's 
implementation of an object storage service. It can be used through the GUI on 
[Cloudflare's Dashboard](https://dash.cloudflare.com/), through the CLI with 
[wrangler](https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/tree/main/packages/wrangler),
 or using the [Amazon's S3 API](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/).

   ## Proposal
   
   1. First the easiest, R2. To begin with, test if Apache Libcloud 
[`libcloud.storage.drivers.s3`](https://libcloud.readthedocs.io/en/stable/apidocs/libcloud.storage.drivers.html#module-libcloud.storage.drivers.s3)
 works correctly with an R2 bucket, and if so, update the documentation to 
reflect that said module can be used with R2. It would be a good idea to 
document what functions are NOT available, according to Cloudflare's R2 
[documentation](https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/data-access/s3-api/api/).
   2. If `libcloud.storage.drivers.s3` doesn't work with R2, another module can 
be created (`libcloud.storage.drivers.r2`, for example), which is based on the 
S3's module but with a few adjustments, and removing functions that are 
unavailable on R2. I do think this is a cleaner solution, to keep S3 separated 
from R2. 
   3. Finally, as Apache Libcloud does not (yet) manage Cloud Databases, a fine 
addition to the library would be to start a new module (maybe 
`libcloud.sql.drivers.NAME`?) and implement certain popular SQL Databases, such 
as [Amazon's RDS](https://aws.amazon.com/rds/), [Azure's SQL 
Database](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/products/azure-sql/database/), and 
of course Cloudflare's D1.
