You can issue any of the ReST methods defined for OpenStack Object Storage with the cURL utility. For example, you can use cURL to send POST and DELETE requests even though we haven't provided specific examples.
Note that generally each time you invoke curl to perform an
operation, the system creates a separate TCP/IP and SSL connection and then throws it away. The language
APIs, however, are designed to re-use these connections between operations and therefore
provide much better performance. We recommend that you use one of the supported
language APIs in your production applications and limit curl to
quick-and-easy testing/troubleshooting.
