Also ceph (& swift) are known to scale well in prod. clusters with over 30+ PB of data (at least looking at CERN's cluster) and the latest version of RGW does support geographic redundancy for S3 like apis
+1 for Ceph. We're running several ~3.5 PB clusters in production. We've not taken advantage of the new RGW features in Jewel, but it works well as an object storage solution.
Don't forget:

CEPH is a volume service not an object storage service.

SWIFT is indeed analogous to S3.

Come on, I literally linked to a website describing "CEPH OBJECT GATEWAY S3 API"
Ceph is object storage first. The volume service is implemented on top of that.
