Learn to deploy and monitor Swift clusters using Swiftacular, an open-source tool that enables rapid cluster deployment and comprehensive performance analysis. Discover how to set up a complete Swift cluster in just 20 minutes with Keystone authentication configured. Explore two specialized monitoring dashboards: one tracking OS-level statistics through Performance Co-Pilot integration with Grafana to monitor system utilization across proxy and storage nodes including XFS inode memory consumption, and another focusing on Swift-specific metrics such as object database sharding history and object size distributions. Examine the comparison between regular Swift backends and modified Ceph BlueStore implementations designed to reduce memory footprint in Swift clusters. Follow along with live demonstrations of the deployment process and gain insights from real-world performance analysis comparing these different backend approaches.
