Hi, has anyone successfully used rackspace cloud files with elastic? Specifically cloud files as the document store?

Hi Anthony,

At this time the index storage will always be local disk, and the  
gateway can certainly be amazon s3, but not cloud files at this time.  
I'm sure there'd be interest in the gateway being on cf/OpenStack  
object storage but I'm not of any plans at this time to enable this...
