Thread:User talk:Aaron Schulz/SwiftMedia using Rackspace Cloud Files

Good morning Aaron,

I am working on a configuration using Rackspace CloudFiles rather than configure my own swift instance. We feel the CDN can provide what we need without having to manage the extra servers. I upgraded to 1.19 as you suggested and am researching the FileBackend object for this. I am, however, trying to locate a central information resource that explains in more detail the steps to integrate between FileBackend and cloudfiles. Do you have any resources that can better help me on this.

Also, rather than installing a full swift implementation, is there a way to install a limited swift configuration for the swiftproxy only?

Thanks! Justin
