Which s3 tools are you using for s3 image hosting for your for profit web sites.

I plan on using podman containers hosting either:

GarageHQ SeaweedFS RustFS Silo ceph None / Directory

Seaweed and RustFS are both Apache related licensing while garageHQ and silo are both agpl-3. Ceph is lgpl-2.1

I was leaning towards garage but since my website will not be open source I think there may be a problem with that so looking into other options.

Unfortunately rustfs is known for ai slop so even though I was leaning that way I might just remove it from my options.

Seaweed is known for being efficient for millions of small files but I don't know what that means for images.

Ceph may be too much of a time investment for me but looks interesting.

Silo is the fork of minio and appears to have the same licensing issue. I also don't find much feedback about it but it is still pretty new.

There's the option of old fashion directory image hosting. Would love to utilize my dream of a Slackware image host server (something I always wanted to do but never did) but wonder if that is outdated for a professional website.

Ceph and GarageHQ due to redundancy. Use ceph object storage if you already use Ceph. Otherwise Garage is the most versatile.

Would there be a conflict since my website is meant as for profit and not open source (if using garage)?

I do not think so. You only need to provide the source code if you modify it.

Thanks. That makes sense and settles pretty much all my concerns.

I'll be using garage then.
