Is there an open-source equivalent to the Amazon S3 storage service running under Linux?

For example a bucket-based file system like:

  • store file -> get unique id
  • access file by unique id
  • delete file by unique id
  • query files by timestamp
  • ...

Thanks.

Riak CS is a new Amazon S3 API-compatible product for your own cloud. It's not open-source, but it may be a viable alternative for your consideration.
