Hello everyone, The objectstore in nova is still alive in Bexar. The long term plan seems to be to get rid of it: it's still using eventlet and Glance is now covering most of its featureset.
It is probably too late to remove it for Bexar, but we need to have a plan for Cactus. IIUC the objectstore still provides an easy way to do EC2-style image upload/registration. To do it with Glance, AFAICT you need to use an S3 backend (Swift with the S3 frontend or Amazon's S3 itself). That sounds a bit overkill, so does that mean we need a basic "S3-like service" to cover for that use case ? Should it be provided by Glance and reuse Glance filesystem backend, or be done outside Glance and reuse the S3 backend ? Thoughts ? -- Thierry Carrez (ttx) Release Manager, OpenStack _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~openstack Post to : openstack@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~openstack More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
