area that needs discussion - that of geo-replication or implementations<br>
across various geo's. Perhaps that should be shared in alternative threads.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div style>Indeed, and that's another topic that interests me (professionally at least). We have two data centers in different geographic zones and currently have a swift cluster in one of them. We are looking at adding a second swift cluster in the other, and are curious what replication options we have.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>We are currently using Swift with Keystone. Keystone is using Galera across three nodes for it's database. We are using HA-Proxy as a load balancer for both the swift proxies and the the keystone nodes.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>For the Swift data my understanding is that if we upgrade to Grizzly we have more options for Geo-replication. i.e. we can add Regions and add nodes in the same cluster split across the two regions.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>We could also use container synchronisation on our Folsom cluster to sync to a different cluster in the other data center.</div><div style><br></div><div style>I don't know if it would be possible for us to do some other form of synchronisation between the two clusters.</div>
<div style><br></div><div style>So, is anyone doing this and how successful is it? </div><div style><br></div><div style>Adam</div></div></div></div>
