How do I access SDSC Cloud storage?

There are several ways to access the cloud:

OpenStack Swift API

Legacy Accounts:

  • Cyberduck, an FTP-like stand alone GUI application
  • Swift, a Python command line script

New and Migrated Accounts:

  • Cyberduck, an FTP-like stand alone GUI application
  • Swift, a Python command line script

To upload files under 5 GB, Cyberduck is recommended. Cyberduck can also be used to upload files greater than 5 GB one at a time. In general, however, the Swift command line script is the best option for uploading files over 5 GB.

AWS S3 API 

SDSC recommends using the OpenStack Swift API to access our cloud storage. We only recommend using the S3 API if your application doesn't support the OpenStack Swift API.
