The policy of giving projects vanity domains stopped about 5 years ago. swift.openstack.org is a redirect to the canonical location - docs.openstack.org/developer/swift. While we are not aiming to remove the redirect any time in the forseeable future due to existing published links pointing to it, we should at the very least stop adding more of those links to the world.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.PP
|
|
Swift has a feature where all the contents of a container can be mirrored to
|
|
another container through background synchronization. Swift cluster operators
|
|
configure their cluster to allow/accept sync requests to/from other clusters,
|
|
and the user specifies where to sync their container to along with a secret
|
|
synchronization key.
|
|
.PP
|
|
The swift-container-sync does the job of sending updates to the remote container.
|
|
This is done by scanning the local devices for container databases and checking
|
|
for x-container-sync-to and x-container-sync-key metadata values. If they exist,
|
|
newer rows since the last sync will trigger PUTs or DELETEs to the other container.
