An open-source implementation of Amazon S3 - MinIO has had it for almost two years (relevant post: https://blog.min.io/leading-the-way-minios-conditional-write...). Strangely, Amazon is catching up just now.
That's not "strange" to me. Object storage has been a long time coming, and it's still being figured out: the entirely typical process of discovering useful and feasible primitives that expand applicability to more sophisticated problems. This is obviously going occur first in smaller and/or younger, more agile implementations, whereas AWS has the problem of implementing this at pretty much the largest conceivable scale with zero risk. The lag is, therefore, entirely unsurprising.
It's not surprising at all. The scale of AWS, in particular S3, is nearly unfathomable, and the kind of solutions they need for "simple" things are totally different at that size. S3 was doing 1.1million requests a second back in 2013.[1]
I wouldn't be surprised if they saw over 100mil/req/sec globally by now. That's 100 million requests a second that need strong read-your-write consistency and atomicity at global scale. The number of pieces they had to move into place for this to happen is probably quite the engineering tale.
