<div dir="ltr">Justin, thanks for the heads up. I agree that ti would be best to use the same frameworks / libraries. I'll look into Aravinda's work. I'll try to get in touch with Aravinda, too.<div><br></div>
<div>Thiago, it's great that you've working on python bindings! That makes my project much easier. :) It'll also be good to look at the Gluster backend for Swift.</div><div><br></div><div>I've edited the proposal based on comments from Jay.

<br>
I agree that this is a different project than a management REST API, but<br>
it is possible that these two projects could merge one day (e.g., GUI<br>
interface), so it is possibly a good idea to at least see what each<br>
other are doing...<br>
<br>
I'm working on the python bindings for libgfapi<br>
(<a href="https://github.com/gluster/libgfapi-python" target="_blank">https://github.com/gluster/libgfapi-python</a>), so let me know if I can<br>
help with questions.<br>
<br>
Also, this might be a bit of a stretch, but gluster-swift is a "plugin"<br>
for using Gluster as the backend storage for Openstack Swift. It is<br>
object-storage, so it might not apply to what your are trying to do, but<br>
it might provide some ideas, so I'd say it's worth taking a look...<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
<br>
Thiago<br>

As the number of big data processing and storage systems explode, integration is becoming more important. A language and operating system agnostic RESTful/JSON API and server could be helpful for easing integration efforts.<br>
