Google+ Hangout: Swift 2.0 Released – Now with Storage Policies

Storage Policies are the biggest feature to be added to OpenStack Swift since the project began. Storage policies allow you to store data based on perfomance tiers, geography, durability, and any combination of those. Join us to hear from John Dickinson, OpenStack Swift project technical lead, as he describes the feature, discusses how you can make use of it today, and shows the future features that are possible built on top of this capability.
