Here are the blueprints (mentioned by Harshad below) to add complete AWS
VPC compatibility in Openstack. AWS EC2 compatibility already exists in 
Openstack.

Services extension is relevant to NATaas (or Natasha :)), VPNaas,
in AWS VPC.

Agree,
I like what AWS had done. Have a concept of NAT instance. 90 % use cases are 
solved by just specifying
Inside and outside networks for the NAT instance.

If one wants fancier NAT config they can always use NATaas API(s)
To configure this instance.

There is a blueprint for bringing Amazon VPC API compatibility to nova and 
related extensions to quantum already propose concept of NAT instance.

How the NAT instance is implemented is left to the plugin.

Can I just ask you to not call it NATaas... if you want to pick a name for it, 
go for Natasha :)

By the way, the idea of a NAT service plugin was first introduced at the 
Grizzly summit in San Diego.
One hurdle, not a big one however, would be that the external gateway and 
floating IP features of the L3 extension already implicitly implements NAT.
It will be important to find a solution to ensure NAT can be configured 
explicitly as well while allowing for configuring external gateway and floating 
IPs through the API in the same way that we do today.

Apart from this, another interesting aspect would be to be see if we can come 
up with an approach which will result in an API which abstracts as much as 
possible networking aspects. In other words, I would like to avoid an API which 
ends up being "iptables over rest", if possible.

Salvatore

Hi Edgar,

I'm also interested in a broadening of NAT capability in Neutron using the 
evolving service framework.

Thanks,
Bob

Subject: Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] Common requirements for services' 
discussion

Hello all,

Is anyone working on NATaaS?
I know we have some developer working on Router as a Service and they probably 
want to include NAT functionality but I have some interest in having NAT as a 
Service.

Please, response is somebody is interested in having some discussions about it.

Thanks,

Edgar

Subject: [openstack-dev] [Neutron] Common requirements for services' discussion

Hi All,

We had a VPNaaS meeting yesterday and it was felt that we should have a 
separate meeting to discuss the topics common to all services. So, in 
preparation for the Icehouse summit, I am proposing an IRC meeting on Oct 14th 
22:00 UTC (immediately after the Neutron meeting) to discuss common aspects 
related to the FWaaS, LBaaS, and VPNaaS.

We will begin with service insertion and chaining discussion, and I hope we can 
collect requirements for other common aspects such as service agents, services 
instances, etc. as well.

Etherpad for service insertion & chaining can be found here:
https://etherpad.openstack.org/icehouse-neutron-service-insertion-chaining

Hope you all can join.

Thanks,
~Sumit.
