Thanks for being on top of this.

I made some comments on the etherpad. IMO probably, this is better as a simple extension of the api and it's datamodels. Since we won't need to extend core resources to connect them to flow classifiers, but in the other hand, we will connect other services to those
classifiers.

This (if I got it right) will be just a common model (fed through a common API) to be consumed
by other services.

Hi All,

We have started a etherpad link [1]  for collecting various use-cases about 
flow-classifier.
Request all to provide their opinion on the same. We will be discussing the 
same over SFC IRC meeting [2].
Any contribution will be appreciated.

Added openstack-dev, where I believe this conversation must live.

I totally agree on this, thank you for bringing up this conversation. This is 
not something we want to do for QoS this cycle, but probably next cycle.

Anyway, an unified data model and API to create/update classifiers will not 
only be beneficial from the code duplication point of view, but will also 
provide a better user experience.

I’m all for it.

Best regards,
Miguel Ángel Ajo

Dear All,



There are multiple proposal floating around flow classifier rules for Liberty 
[1], [2] and [3].

I feel we all should work together and try to address all our use case having a 
unified framework rather than working separately achieving the same  goal.



Moreover, I can find the proposal for flow classifier as defined by the 
existing SFC [2] proposal is too generic and could address all the use cases by 
minor extension’s.



In this regard, I would like all to come forward, exchange their thoughts, work 
together and make it happen good the first go rather doing the same effort 
separately and end up in duplicating code&  effort ☹.

I always feel less code will make our life happy in the long run ;)



Please let me know about your views.
