Could you build this?
Partial The Postgres-backed storage and basic object API are straightforward, but full S3 wire compatibility (SigV4 auth, multipart uploads, edge-case semantics) is a hard protocol-conformance task.
What it would actually take: The core is an HTTP server that implements the S3 REST API and stores object metadata and blob data in Postgres, likely using large objects or bytea with chunking. The hard part is passing S3 compatibility tests, including SigV4 signing, multipart upload, ranged reads, and consistency semantics. This needs someone who knows the S3 spec in depth and can run conformance suites.
