DigitalOcean Block Storage vs Openstack Swift: What are the differences?

Developers describe DigitalOcean Block Storage as "Attach highly available and scalable SSD-based Block Storage to your Droplet". Add more storage space, mix and match compute and storage to suit your database, file storage, application, service, mobile, and backup needs. On the other hand, Openstack Swift is detailed as "A distributed object storage system designed to scale from a single machine to thousands of servers". It is a highly available, distributed, eventually consistent object/blob store. Organizations can use Swift to store lots of data efficiently.

DigitalOcean Block Storage and Openstack Swift can be categorized as "Cloud Storage" tools.
