That’s probably the fastest convergence on getting more releases out in the market. And that says a lot about how much the Nutanix Objects team is committed to bringing more value to the Nutanix customers and simplifying enterprise workloads.

But there is more to it when it comes to securing your connection or packet. After cert validation, Nutanix Objects S3 adapter service does further check to authentication user before it processes the request.
