Cloned from launchpad blueprint https://blueprints.launchpad.net/glance/+spec/image-transfer-service.

Description:

OpenStack could benefit from a service designed specifically for large data transfers.  This service would be on both the source and the destination of an image transfer and be in a position to negotiate the best protocol (http, bittorrent, etc) and prevent the transfer from over using I/O resources (both disk and network).  A beginning of these ideas can be found here: http://tropicaldevel.wordpress.com/2013/01/11/an-image-transfers-service-for-openstack/
