Swift Data Source Driver¶
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/congress/+spec/swift-data-source-driver
This blueprint is to add a data source driver for swift.
Problem description¶
A datasource driver is required to expose list of containers and list of objects in each container to the Congress policy framework so that we can write policies involving object storage entities. Swift is the OpenStack component that provides object storage service. The swift-datasource-driver interacts with swift service to provide object storage specific states to congress for policy monitoring.
Proposed change¶
Add data source driver that integrates congress with swift.
