I understand your comment but may need an ELI5 after looking at their site.
Basically it allows you to buy or rent your own physical servers and then use the free and open source software Ceph to setup your own cloud storage on top of them.
Depending on the scale you need, it's much cheaper than cloud storage providers, but obviously comes with the caveat that you need to manage everything yourself.
Ceph can be run on multiple machines and tied together into one big singular storage cluster that can be used for basically anything.
It's not exactly a beginner friendly solution though as you have to do all the work.
It's not a "cloud service" that you can just sign up for and push data to.
