I think that a consequence of the popularity of S3 REST API was overlooked by the LC HQ when they designed the AWS library. Many of the AWS APIs were copied by other competing products so that they'd become a turn-key replacement for AWS. It is much easier to push your company's backuping solution

Paul, thanks for your thoughts, you are right there are some traps with the s3 compatible part, and some unknown that we may not know about. Richard, thanks for letting me know about those libraries, its definitely another option that can be used to achieve the same result. I will definitely look

Thanks for that background, Tom. If it *must* be s3 then either working with LC Ltd or crafting an open competing lib would be necessary. Open source competing libs are problematic on both sides, since the dev needs to replicate the effort and the company loses one more advantage to their
