Operations are the actions you perform within an OpenStack Object Storage system such as creating or deleting containers, uploading or downloading objects, and so on. The full list of operations is documented in the Developer Guide. Operations may be performed via the ReST web service API or a language-specific API; currently, we support Python, PHP, Java, Ruby, and C#/.NET.
