Hi,<br>
<br>
Let's start a bit early on 3.12 and 4.0 roadmap items, as there have<br>
been quite a few discussions around this in various meetups.<br>
<br>
Here is what we are hearing (or have heard), so if you are working<br>
on any of these items, do put up your github issue, and let us know<br>
which release you are targeting these for.<br>
<br>
If you are working on something that is not represented here, shout<br>
out, and we can get that added to the list of items in the upcoming<br>
releases.<br>
<br>
Once we have a good collection slotted into the respective releases<br>
(on github), we can further announce the same in the users list as well.<br>
<br>
3.12:<br>
1. Geo-replication to cloud (ie, s3 or glacier like storage target)<br>
2. Basic level of throttling support on server side to manage the<br>
self-heal processes running.<br>
3. Brick Multiplexing (Better support, more control)<br>
4. GFID to path improvements<br>
5. Resolve issues around disconnects and ping-timeouts<br>
6. Halo with hybrid mode was supposed to be with 3.12<br>
7. Procedures and code for +1 scaling the cluster?<br>
8. Lookup-optimized turned on by default.<br>
9. Thin client (or server side clustering) - phase 1.<br>
<br>
<br>

10. > We also have the IPV6 patch by FB. This was supposed to go into 3.11 but<span><br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
hasn't. The main thing blocking this is having an actual IPV6<br>
environment to test it in.<br>
</blockquote>
<br></span>
11. Also we would like to propose support for leases and lock-owner via gfAPI in 3.12.<br>
<br>
There are already POC patches sent by Poornima and Anoop. They need testing (have started) and updates. I have raised github-issue [1] to track the same.<span><br>
<br>
<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<br>
<br>
4.0: (more thematic than actual features at the moment)<br>
1. Separation of Management and Filesystem layers (aka GlusterD2<br>
related efforts)<br>
2. Scaling Distribution logic<br>
3. Better consistency with rename() and link() operations<br>
4. Thin client || Clustering Logic on server side - Phase 2<br>
5. Quota: re-look at optimal support<br>
6. Improvements in debug-ability and more focus on testing coverage<br>
based on use-cases.<br>
</blockquote></span>
7. Zero-copy Writes<br>
<br>
There was some effort put up by Sachin wrt this feature[2]. I would like to take it forward and propose the design changes if needed to be consumed by external applications (at-least existing ones like NFS-Ganesha or Samba). Github issue#[3]<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Soumya<br>

<br>
Components moving out of support in possibly 4.0<br>
- Stripe translator<br>
- AFR with just 2 subvolume (either use Arbiter or 3 way replicate)<br>
- Re-validate few performance translator's presence.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
