OpenStack Summit May 2014 Atlanta

Come hear about one of the biggest new features to hit Swift since the project was open sourced! This session will provide insight into the wildly successful community effort of adding Storage Policies to OpenStack Swift for Icehouse. John Dickinson (SwiftStack) and Paul Luse (Intel) will describe what this exciting new feature is, how the community came together to collaborate and bring it to life and, most importantly, what it means for those deploying Swift. Storage Polices lay the foundation for all sorts of new capabilities and we'll also be proving a preview of what's to come in Juno that's building on Storage Policies - Erasure Codes.
