Hi All, I'm rolling out OpenStack at MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab and I'm wondering how others have balanced supporting "normal" use of OpenStack's cloud platform for getting work done -vs- doing research on the platform itself?
For example most of my users want a stable platform but some are interested in testing performance and stability of experimental pieces. Do people typically set this up as separate production and experimental clouds or use availability zones (or something else). Particularly on the research side I'm interested in provisioning a variety of storage backends (particularly for the volume server but possibly for instance storage as well). It' s unclear to me how or if I can configure multiple volume storage zones which would be my preferred implantation so volumes from different backends could be attached to the same instance and tested under the same conditions.
