The most efficient way to do this for Swift to do this is to implement Form Post[1] (upload) and tempUrl[2] (download). With this setup, the user will be directly uploading/downloading from Swift endpoint rather than passing the files through horizon.
The caveat for this to work, you need to be able to associate access keys to users. -Lin [1] http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/api/form_post_middleware.html [2] http://docs.openstack.org/kilo/config-reference/content/object-storage-tempurl.html On Thu, Dec 3, 2015 at 3:20 PM, Kyrylo Galanov <kgala...@mirantis.com> wrote: > Hello, > > When a file is uploaded to Glance, Swift through Horizon it is stored > locally in a temporary directory in Horizon server.
