There are a few places in the git repo which claim to be related to S3: $ git branch -a | grep -i s3 remotes/origin/S3_DAO remotes/origin/s3-hdfs remotes/origin/s3-merged remotes/origin/s3_spring remotes/origin/s3tests
But it's unclear if these are related to the external, customer-facing S3 API or a ability to use S3 for secondary storage. I'm curious, has any work on the second case (ability to store secondary objects into an S3-compatible service)? More below… inline...

Our auth is exactly the same as AWS/S3, so yes.
