Whiteboard

This work is aligned with work done in Swift to enable Apache front end to Swift.

Through this work, devstack users can use Swift with an Apache2 web front end instead of the python web front end, which makes for different Openstack Swift users.

Through this work, we would also enable functional testing of new patches to the Swift source code tree to be tested with the Apache2 web front end, identifying any issues arising from such a patch. The need for such tests came up recently as code was merged twice which broke the Apache2 support.
