VersityGW is a high-performance, Apache-2.0 licensed S3 gateway written in Go that exposes an S3-compatible API backed by a local POSIX filesystem or proxied to other S3 storage. It is a single-binary, stateless server that can be clustered for scale and supports features like static website hosting, a WebGUI, and S3 over RDMA.

Use cases

• turn my local filesystem into an S3 server
• self-host an S3-compatible object storage endpoint
• serve files over S3 API from a POSIX filesystem
• proxy S3 requests to another S3 backend
• host static websites from S3 buckets
• give S3 access to HPC tape or file archives
• run a lightweight MinIO alternative on my NAS

When to choose

• you want S3 API access to data on a POSIX filesystem without migrating it
• you need a simple single-binary S3 server that is easy to deploy and cluster
• you need S3 protocol compatibility so files are accessible via both POSIX and S3
• you need high-throughput object transfers such as RDMA/GPUDirect for HPC or AI workloads

When to avoid

• you need a full distributed object store with built-in erasure coding like MinIO or Ceph
• you need native block or file protocols rather than S3 translation
• you require enterprise support contracts and certifications from the open-source project alone
