## What it is
Garage is an S3-compatible distributed object storage service written in Rust, designed for self-hosting at small-to-medium scale. It replicates data across geographically distributed nodes over the public Internet, staying lightweight, easy to operate, and resilient to machine and network failures.

## Use cases
- self-host an S3-compatible object store on my own servers
- replicate storage across multiple locations or home datacenters
- host static websites from an S3 bucket
- store Nextcloud, Mastodon, or Matrix media on S3
- use a lightweight S3 backend for restic or rclone backups
- build a storage cluster from heterogeneous second-hand hardware

## When to choose
- you need geo-distributed, redundant object storage without a dedicated datacenter backbone
- you want a single dependency-free binary with low CPU/RAM requirements
- you self-host apps (Nextcloud, Peertube, Mastodon) that need an S3 backend
- you want to expose buckets as static websites

## When to avoid
- you need full Amazon S3 API compatibility for advanced features
- you run a large-scale, single-datacenter deployment where Ceph or MinIO fit better
- you need Borg Backup or other non-S3 backup tools directly

## Facets
- artifact type: service
- maturity: active
- function: object-storage, self-hosted, api-framework
