John, what i think would be terrific ( i hope is not implemented, if not im gonna feel a dunce ) if, for latency matters, suppose you have 4 zones, 2 on each datacenter, and on each datacenter, you have 2 proxies for example.
De idea would be that there were some kind of mechanism to tell the ring, what nodes are under what proxies, to give some kind of prefferece regarding latency, and for example not having a proxy on DC1 to cross the country to get an object from a datanode in DC2. Have you thought anything like it? If not, im wondering how, for example rackspace handles this kind of issues ( ignoring all the CDN thing ) Cheers. *---------------* *Alejandrito* On Thu, Nov 1, 2012 at 12:55 PM, John Dickinson <m...@not.mn> wrote: > This is already supported in Swift with the concept of availability zones. > Swift will place each replica in different availability zones, if possible. > If you only have one zone, Swift will place the replicas on different > machines.
