Garage (https://garagehq.deuxfleurs.fr/) gets pretty close for object storage. It’s built with mixing high/low latency links and replication between multiple hosts. Unfortunately it’s not really built for end-users, but devs, so there’s no ui or anything like that.
Yup. Garage is painless to set up and, unlike Minio, is designed for "small scale", self-hosted use cases where your nodes may not have identical storage and compute. One current caveat of Garage, compared to Minio, is that anonymous access is not supported. (Patches welcome!) This means you can't easily generate or share links to files in a bucket.
I personally use Garage for locally testing things that run against the S3 API. It's very easy to run the single binary directly. No need for containers, but of course that is also an option, and it's very easy to containerize since you realistically only need to run a statically linked binary and mount a TOML file somewhere.
