Hi All, I was trying to understand the Ring Algorithm for Openstack Swift. I have went through official docs. I found that it uses Consistent Hashing Ring[1].
But the problem is, It doesn't mention about the features of Swift like Given 3 regions, Each file should go to different regions etc. If I have 8 nodes with equal weights, then a couple of nodes are always empty even after inserting 20 files [with each of 3 replicas]. I feel that this doesn't happen in Swift Algorithm, But only in Consistent Hashing Ring. *So, what other things Swift Ring Algorithm have apart from Consistent Hashing Ring?* Thank you Sameer Kulkarni
