Role of the Gateway

The Content Gateway is a lightweight, web-scale software application used by organizations that need to deploy massively scalable, secure, multi-tenant object storage clouds.

The Gateway works as a reverse proxy in front of the Swarm storage cluster and extends the RESTful object storage API with the following capabilities:

  • S3 object storage protocol

  • User and group authentication with external identity management systems

  • Access control policies

  • Automatic metadata transformation

  • Usage metering

  • Audit logging

Content Gateway also serves enterprises who need to provide a private storage cloud for business units and Managed Service Providers and Cloud Service Providers that want to offer public cloud storage as a service.
