Ideally it should be pluggable. - -### Cinder GlusterFS backup driver - -Write a driver for cinder, a part of openstack, to allow backup onto -GlusterFS volumes - -### rsockets - sockets for rdma transport - -Coding for RDMA using the familiar socket api should lead to a more -robust rdma transport - -### Data import tool - -Create a tool which will allow importing already existing data in the -brick directories into the gluster volume. This is most likely going to -be a special rebalance process. - -### Rebalance improvements - -Improve rebalance performance. - -### Meta translator - -The meta xlator provides a /proc like interface to GlusterFS xlators. -This could be improved upon and the meta xlator could be made a standard -part of the volume graph. - -### Geo-replication using rest-api - -Might be suitable for geo replication over WAN. - -### Quota using underlying FS' quota - -GlusterFS quota is currently maintained completely in GlusterFSs -namespace using xattrs. We could make use of the quota capabilities of -the underlying fs (XFS) for better performance. - -### Snapshot pluggability - -Snapshot should be able to make use of snapshot support provided by -btrfs for example. - -### Compression at rest - -Lessons learnt while implementing encryption at rest can be used with -the compression at rest. - -### File-level deduplication - -GlusterFS works on files. So why not have dedup at the level files as -well. - -### Composition xlator for small files - -Merge small files into a designated large file using our own custom -semantics. This can improve our small file performance.
