The RGW multi-site subsystem evolved over the years from primary-replica for DR purposes to a more elaborate data replication and distribution system (as well as other extended features such as metadata indexing). The system's cloud sync feature allows sending data to an external cloud storage system, however, the system still lacks the ability to pull data from external sources. The Sync Info Provider work generalizes the sync process by defining a generic API that makes it possible to sync data from external data sources into RGW. In this presentation we will describe the RGW multisite sync capabilities, the Sync Info Provider work, and the first external module that allows syncing object data from AWS.
