PS: if your DFS works within a docker container you'll have a very strong differentiator since the rest don't. You'd also possibly solve the "how to do storage in a container cloud without resorting to NAS or separate clusters" problem.

Untrue. Gluster is already deployed that way in many places. Yes, in production and at scale.

Do you mean hackery of this sort:

Or do you know of clean, container only (no plugins or special external tools) solution ?

Oh, sorry, didn't realize we were playing the "move the goalposts" game. If you were to google for "gluster" and "containers" you'd get everything from slick marketing stuff to a presentation at the recent Gluster developer summit in Berlin. I have no idea if any of those would meet your next set of standards but, frankly, meh.

Container hosting with a homogeneous cluster constraint was a real requirement for me that I could not find a solution for amongst existing options but since you're a gluster dev you'd probably know better whether its possible; so happy to stand corrected. Thanks for correcting; and no offence intended.

It is certainly possible. The first user I know of who did this was using Mesos. Nowadays the push is more around doing it with Kubernetes and OpenShift; I know there was at least one presentation on it at Red Hat Summit. I'm a core-infrastructure guy, so that's kind of not my bailiwick, but if there's nothing in Gluster's own documentation about such things there might be something in one of those other communities.

I spent a good bit of time yesterday just throwing all the docs into google translate. Tera looks really interesting, but currently there is no way I can use it unless there is documentation in my native language :/

Hey, don't suppose you know if the Baidu Maps team will be translating their docs anytime soon? (specifically the android API docs)
