This is something we should discuss a bit. We dropped the services server because it was old and crusty, used xmlrpc, and we didn't have time to rewrite it then. That "stuff" moved into the auth server, which required it to have access to all backend account servers. Later with the auth updates, it moved into the proxy so the auth just required proxy access.
I like having a separate service for account puts and deletes as it gives just a little more security with firewall rules and such. But, it does kinda stink to have a whole extra service just for account puts and deletes. One possibility is to have an option to turn on account puts and deletes (and make them off by default). To run what used to be called services you just run an instance or two of the proxy server with this option on. If you run in a more trusted scenario you can just enable it in your main proxy servers. -- Add an interface to the Proxy to delete accounts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665383 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is subscribed to OpenStack Object Storage (swift). _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
