That was about Cloud storage engines as Squid cache_dir. Which is an
interesting idea, so far as I know there was no follow-through on
getting anything done.
I want to try to just understand cloud storage engines can you refer me
to any of these?
If there is one of them with good api for OO lang like java I will be
glad to take a look at it.
In theory Squid can use any kind of backed at all for cache_dir storage.
It just needs a DiskIO module created to abstract the particular backend
into the API Squid uses internally.
There are caveats around what I/O calls the backend can support vs what
is requried, and how efficient accessing it is in comparison to simpler
things like local disks.
GOT IT but not in my level...
