Open Stack
You can use ExpanDrive to connect to your object storage cloud powered by OpenStack and Swift. Using ExpanDrive you connect to Swift object storage by specifying a server, username, and API Access Key.
Connection Parameters
Server

username

You have some options for auth, including tempauth (which is included with Swift), swauth (an auth service for Swift as WSGI middleware that uses Swift itself as a backing store that is provided via download from Github), the OpenStack Identity Service (project named Keystone), or you can use your own authentication system. For more information see the OpenStack documentation.
