Please note: This schedule is for OpenStack Active Technical Contributors participating in the Icehouse Design Summit sessions in Hong Kong. These are working sessions to determine the roadmap of the Icehouse release and make decisions across the project. To see the full OpenStack Summit schedule, including presentations, panels and workshops, go to http://openstacksummitnovember2013.sched.org.
The combination of the DiskFile and DBBroker refactorings and the erasure code work will allow Swift to support multiple storage policies in the same cluster. Regions, tiers, different encodings, and the combination of all of these are possible.
We'll discuss the current work being done on storage policies.
While I'll focus on the storage policy work, I also want to cover some of the topics discussed at the recent Swift hackathon such as cluster federation, discoverable features, and s-sync.
