Hi Lorin, It's not really that nova-objectstore has gone anywhere... just that it is not being developed further, and while it used to be that if you were using the EC2 API and tooling you would need to have a Nova FLAG.image_service set to nova.images.s3.S3ImageService, this is no longer the case. nova-objectstore is still used in the EC2 API for the purposes of euca2ools, as certain tools like euca-bundle-image only work with an S3 object store. nova-objectstore stores the manifest.xml and compressed image parts during the process of bundling an image. However, the eventual image is stored in Glance. So, nova-objectstore is a service that enables the euca-bundle-image and euca-upload-bundle tools to work with Nova, but it serves no other purpose and is no longer a configurable part of Nova's image management. Hope that makes sense!
