Hi Khodayar,
Yes, you are correct. I would have to move objects manually between (more
than one) buckets if I use "Pool placements and
Storage classes"
So you have successfully used this method and it was OK?
After we set up the new placement rule in the zone and zonegroups we
modified users configuration to set the placement to use. It's worked well
so far :). I'm happy to share how we set up the zones and zonegroups if you
need that information. But I followed what I could find in the ceph docs.
I may be forced to use this method because clients
needs more features
than mere cache tiering.
Have you ever used S3 Browser "bucket lifecycle rules" and those "storage
classes"?
We use s3 life cycle for data expiration but not for data transition. It
looks like transitions are supported in Nautilus

Cheers,
Tom
