There's a bunch of backup tools that will work with the Swift API and/or the S3 API.

Veritas, Commvault, Trilio, and CloudBerry all work. There's other companies too that can back specific stuff up to Swift (e.g. Percona with MySQL).

(The above list taken from https://www.swiftstack.com/solutions/backup [my employer] because it's the first linkable place I knew of to answer your question.)
