Object storage instead organizes data as whole items with <strong class="kw">rich metadata</strong> in a flat, HTTP-accessible namespace, trading fine-grained in-place edits for virtually unlimited scale. The choice determines whether your application talks to storage like a disk or like a web API.</p>
