Pluggable On-Disk Back-end APIs
|
|
===============================
|
|
|
|
The internal REST API used between the proxy server and the account, container
|
|
and object server is almost identical to public Swift REST API, but with a few
|
|
internal extentsions (for example, update an account with a new container).
|
|
|
|
The pluggable back-end APIs for the three REST API servers (account,
|
|
container, object) abstracts the needs for servicing the various REST APIs
|
|
from the details of how data is laid out and stored on-disk.
|
|
|
|
The APIs are documented in the reference implementations for all three
|
|
servers. For historical reasons, the object server backend reference
|
|
implementation module is named `diskfile`, while the account and container
|
|
server backend reference implementation modules are named appropriately.
|
|
|
|
This API is still under development and not yet finalized.
