Hi OpenStackers,
I am proud to announce the official launch of the Mistral project. At Mirantis
we have a team to start contributing to the project right away. We invite
anybody interested in task service & state management to join the initiative.
Mistral is a new OpenStack service designed for task flow control, scheduling,
and execution. The project will implement Convection proposal
(https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/Convection) and provide an API and
domain-specific language that enables users to manage tasks and their
dependencies, and to define workflows, triggers, and events. The service will
provide the ability to schedule tasks, as well as to define and manage external
sources of events to act as task execution triggers.
The project will allow integration with the existing task flow library. Mistral
will initially expose task flow library functionality through an API by
providing a domain-specific language for describing task flow concepts. Going
forward there is an intention to extend DSL to provide a support for additional
concepts, like external events or scheduling rules.
The project page can be found at https://launchpad.net/Mistral.
We will be holding weekly meetings on Mondays at 16:00 UTC on
#openstack-meeting at Freenode. If you have any questions or would like to
contribute, you can find us on #openstack-mistral.
