Greetings, There has been much discussion about the future of nova-network. While a freeze is still in effect, I think we need to relax some of the restrictions we have put in place as a part of this freeze.
Previously, we have been ignoring nova-network as we made architectural enhancements to the rest of Nova. This is starting to cause a bit too much pain. nova-network performance is the biggest Nova performance problem related to recent gate instability. More details here: http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-January/024052.html http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/openstack-dev/2014-January/024167.html One of the architectural improvements we've held off on for nova-network was updating it to use nova-objects and to use the nova-conductor service. For the performance reasons discussed in the linked thread above, I think we need to move forward with this in nova-network. I have filed the following blueprint for this work: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/nova-network-objects This is not an unfreeze of nova-network. This is just a recognition that we need to catch it up with the rest of Nova.
