This feature encrypts all + object data and user-set object metadata as it is sent to the cluster. + This feature is designed to prevent information leaks if a hard drive + leaves the cluster. The encryption is transparent to the end-user. + + At-rest encryption in Swift is enabled on the proxy server by + adding two middlewares to the pipeline. The `keymaster` middleware + is responsible for managing the encryption keys and the `encryption` + middleware does the actual encryption and decryption. + + Existing clusters will continue to work without enabling + encryption. Although enabling this feature on existing clusters + is supported, best practice is to enable this feature on new + clusters when the cluster is created. + + For more information on the details of the at-rest encryption + feature, please see the docs at + http://docs.openstack.org/developer/swift/overview_encryption.html. + + * `swift-recon` can now be called with more than one server type. + + * Fixed a bug where non-ascii names could cause an error in logging + and cause a 5xx response to the client. + + * The install guide and API reference have been moved into Swift's + source code repository. + + * Various other minor bug fixes and improvements. + swift (2.8.0) * Allow concurrent bulk deletes for server-side deletes of static -- cgit v1.2.1
