Highlights of the week<\/h2>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\n\u00a0Decision On Third Party APIs<\/a><\/h3>\nThe PPB in its May 15 meeting<\/a> decided that:
\nAn OpenStack project will support an official API in it’s core implementation(the OpenStack API). Other APIs will be implemented external to core. The core project will expose stable, complete, performant interfaces so that 3rd party APIs can be implemented in a complete and performant manner.<\/p>\n[more…]<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n\n\nPerformance Comparison: Ubuntu 12.04 + OpenStack Swift Essex Release ” by Zmanda Team Blog<\/a>![\"\"](\"http:\/\/app.flashissue.com\/rest\/squarifyImage?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.zmanda.com%2Fimages%2FUbuntu1204%2BOpenStack%2520Essex%2Flarge_small.jpg\")
<\/h3>\nThe Zmandateam published a cloud backup performance comparison between OpenStack Swift Essex on Ubuntu 12.04 LTS and OpenStack Swift 1.46 + Ubuntu 11.10, as well as demonstrated the functionality of Object Store in the OpenStack Dashboard.<\/p>\n

Today we were asked a question about a Swift configuration setting which relates to the number of partitions in the ring data structure that are created. Data lives in partitions and it’s up to an operator to decide how many partitions should be created.<\/p>\n
