Description

Several open issues in nextcloud/server overlap with this matter:

  • see those Issues for material/coverage ideas

  • See docs for providers such as: AWS, Backblaze[^backblaze], etc.

[^backblaze]: "Buckets in Backblaze B2 are versioned by default. Because buckets are versioned, when a file is deleted by referencing the name, only the most recent version of that file is deleted and older versions of the file continue to exist in the bucket." -- https://www.backblaze.com/apidocs/introduction-to-the-s3-compatible-api ("Differences from AWS S3")
