CDN for caching objects like images stored in a Swift

Registered by Puneet Sangal

Provide a CDN image for ATS (Apache Traffic Server), to cache objects like css, js and images.

The tenant can install CDN image(s) on compute instances.

The DNS management can be done to retrieve objects over http from CDN instead of directly from origin.

CDN can serve object from it's cache, or retrieve object from Swift container for the tenant and cache it for next time

The rules for caching can be controlled via a config file per tenant (per property) or via a simple wizard on the dashboard

The CDN can serve the objects to the browser, instead of directly retrieving by a http url from swift as origin.

Note: Not sure which OpenStack component this applies for, selecting Swift for now.

Whiteboard

I'd suggest you look at projects like https://github.com/dpgoetz/sos to integrate swift with a cdn. It's a great feature, but it's separate from swift itself.
