If you are relying on a single object storage provider and cannot survive downtime, data loss or simply being very slow at times you will never find a good one.

If you are relying on a single object storage provider and cannot survive downtime, data loss or simply being very slow at times you will never find a good one. Expect things to fail. Distributed systems are not that trivial for a random object storage provider to have enough expertise to run Ceph or any other open source solution at scale with no issues.
- scurvy 9y agoOr you should purchase commercial support for said storage... Salesforce runs several large Ceph clusters, and they have a dedicated team to run it. If you can't invest in the employees, you should invest in commercial support. Salesforce also commits a lot of updates and patches back to the Ceph community
