I'm afraid there's no other practical way but create VPNs between datacenters and tunnel your back-end Swift traffic. Although it could be possible to use SSL (with minimal changes), there's no authentication or authorization in Swift back-end services. If you let attackers on your replication network, it's game over. -- Pete _______________________________________________ Mailing list: http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack Post to : openstack@lists.openstack.org Unsubscribe : http://lists.openstack.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/openstack
