Hi, I added two comments about enhancement of sorting and location based query at the discussion wiki page. https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Talk:MetadataSearchAPI#Metadata_Search_API_Discussion_page Best Regards, Edward Zhang(张华) Advisory Software Engineer Open Standards and Cloud Emerging Technology Institute(ETI) IBM China Software Development Lab

Rebooting this thread now that I've reorg'd the Wiki page.
The proposed REST API spec for searching system and custom metadata in
Swift, across accounts, containers, and objects, is now posted at:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/MetadataSearchAPI
I've also made the first modification to the API since the Icehouse design
summit where I introduced this project: adding "metadata:" per conversation
with Paula Ta-Shma's team at IBM Storage Research.
The home page for this project remains at:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/MetadataSearch
See that home page for further details, and the history of this email
thread. Feel free to edit the Wiki as described on the home page!
As Brian Cline (SoftLayer) said so eloquently in this thread:
> Today, about the best one can do is iterate through everything and
inspect metadata
> along the way - obviously an infinitely expensive (and hilariously
insane)
> operation.
> If there are any others who have implemented search in Swift, please
speak up and
> help shape this. We both want to get community consensus on a standard
search API,
> then get a pluggable reference implementation into Swift.
> This is all work-in-progress stuff, but we'd welcome any feedback,
concerns,
> literal jumps for joy, etc. in this thread, both on the API and on a
reference
> architecture.
