Re: State of the S3 secondary storage

We've been kicking around idea internally on abstracting secondary storage entirely and offload it to cloudstack agent. Our biggest gripe is NFS. If we can expose S3 (over HTTPs) like service and offload to cloudstack agent - we will remove large dependency. The only issue we see - is vmware,

We are using Swift as secondary storage. It also offers inter-zone secondary storage. We have had to do fixes to make it work correctly, but we have pushed those fixes upstream so they are available in 4.9 (and some fixes earlier than that). Like Wido said, the staging NFS is still needed which
