[Gluster-users] [Gluster-devel] Looking for volunteer to write up official "How to do GlusterFS in the Cloud: The Right Way" for Rackspace...

[Nico Schottelius]

Good evening gentlemen,

I would be interested in creating this documentation.

I have recently setup glusterfs 3.4.2 + 3.6.2 on Ubuntu 14.04 and CentOS 7
and done some benchmarks on our hosting platform, however do not have year
long experience in running glusterfs (however some more experience with
Sheepdog/Ceph).

I am nonetheless interested in creating it, also for the purpose of
finding the rough edges of glusterfs.

The big question for me however is, in which time frame this
documentation is to be created, as I'd create it in my evening spare
time.

Cheers,

Nico
