Swift is the default and is simpler since you do not have to manage credentials yourself. Access is governed using your Arbutus account. However, Swift does not replicate all the functionalities of S3. The main use case here is that when you want to manage your object storage containers using access policies, you must use S3, as Swift does not support access policies. You can also create and manage your own keys using S3, which could be useful if you for example want to create a read-only user for a specific application. A full list of Swift/S3 compatibility can be found here: | Swift is the default and is simpler since you do not have to manage credentials yourself. Access is governed using your Arbutus account.
