The primary use case is general purpose object storage for preproduction types of test and development. We use it in research, development, test, and evaluations (RDT&E) for software development.

We are using it for the backup and recovery and object storage. We use the Swift and NFS. We have a NAS gateway such as Avere in front of it. So, it is multipurpose. I would like to use it for more direct NFS, if that feature does become available.

Right now, it's a backup storage system, so it's used as a backup repository. We point our Commvault backups to it and soon to be Veeam backups.

We have two use cases. The primary one is a backup target for our backup software and we also use it for archiving off of our primary storage.

We are a data center operator and service provider. We deliver cloud storage as a service solution to other customers. So, it's a multitenant cloud service solution, like Amazon S3 or Azure Blob Service. Therefore, cloud storage is our use case.

Our customers are getting file volumes, storage volumes, or object containers from us. They put data on them and manage them on our portal.

We are using the current version of the product.

We have a number of use cases. The most important one is that we run a data-sharing service for Dutch universities and higher education and research institutes. The service is used to share research data. It's based on cloud software which uses the object store as a storage backend. That is our most important user. 

We have another user from Leiden University, which has the most data in it. They have a few very huge electron microscopes. They do research with them and distribute the data through SwiftStack to their customers.

It's all in the nonprofit sphere.

We provide archived documentation in Canada. We use it to manage servers for object storage. It is a console that helps you configure OpenStack Swift. We have eight OpenStack Swift servers, and we use SwiftStack to manage them.

It is on-premises. We have one VM on one of our servers, and then we use it to configure all other nodes.

Object storage for a SaaS platform is our primary use case. We host a SaaS platform and we use this as our back-end storage.
