Object Storage is a "relatively" new storage architecture being widely used in cloud computing. This talk will introduce object storage concepts and use cases and how they are different from block and file storage. As an example, we will provide an overview of Openstack Swift, its main features as well as talk about what's in the works for future releases. Swift is a highly available, distributed, eventually consistent object store. It is used at organizations like Wikipedia, OVH, Ebay and many more across the globe to store lots of data efficiently at a massive scale. It provides a RESTful API for data access, making it ideal for use with web applications. This talk will also provide a demo usage of Swift.

If one disk or object-server fails then its data is always available on other object servers. Swift is able to apply this principle to not just disks and object servers but also independent availability zones and regions. This enables the deployment of so-called Global Clusters which provide a single object namespace spanning multiple geographically dispersed data-centres, each offering independent local access to object data.
This talk will describe some of the mechanisms that Swift provides for configuring and optimising Global Clusters. We will briefly describe how Swift's consistent hashing Ring maps objects to object servers and how that mapping algorithm can be configured to distribute copies of each object across data-centres. We will show how Swift's read and write affinity settings can be used to optimise WAN traffic in a Global Cluster. Finally we will discuss some of the challenges we faced when implementing Global Cluster support for erasure coded objects, and how those were overcome by enhancements to the Ring and the erasure coding write path.

Instead of using existing storage systems and making them work with containers; what if you were to redesign something from scratch using the same paradigms used in the container world? This resulted in the effort of containerizing the storage controller. Also, as applications that consume storage are changing over, do we need a scale-out distributed storage systems?

The contents are provided using a virtual hidden directory called .meta which is inside the root of GlusterFS mount.

Various resources of a Ceph cluster can be managed and monitored via a web-based management interface. It is no longer necessary to be intimately familiar with the inner workings of the individual Ceph components.
Any task can be carried out by either using openATTIC’s clean and intuitive web interface or via the openATTIC REST API.
openATTIC itself is stateless - it remains in a consistent state even if you make changes to the Ceph cluster's resources using external command-line tools.
If you're interested in the dramatic changes and improvements we made since last year and you want to take a look at the newest version of openATTIC, this is the right talk for you.

It uses an RESTful API, making it easy to use and embed in your own applications.One of the great characteristics of (web) applications using Swift as a backend is the separation between application logic and data path. This helps a lot to write lightweight apps in a scaleable way.
During this talk we'll give you an overview about the included features, how to use them and examples how implementations might look like. An example web application walktrough & demo will showcase why all of these features help you to build your own application.

This is where the ELK stack comes in; to search, analyze and process logs and metadata. From the Kraken release of Ceph, Ceph's Object Storage (Radosgw/RGW)has integration for metadata search using ElasticSearch making it very easy to get much needed insights into how the object storage is being used for operators and users alike.
