Hello, I'm interested in using technology like CloudFerry [https://github.com/MirantisWorkloadMobility/CloudFerry] to migrate OpenStack resources from one cloud to another in the use case of disaster recovery.
I can deal with the storage replication necessary to make sure that the storage backend(s) are regularly freshened in the failover cloud, and its files will just need to be reattached to Cinder volume and Glance image objects during reconstruction (in preparation for association with new, failed-over compute instances). CloudFerry is designed to migrate resources from one cloud to another while both environments are accessible and operable (i.e. its primary "Openstack version upgrade" scenario). So, for my use case, I expect to have to define metadata that would be regularly collected (via APIs and DB), transmitted, and cached on the failover side in order to perform a recovery if the primary cloud goes completely offline. I can see a number of OpenStack Summit presentations over the years that describe this kind of method for failing over resources from one cloud to another to address disaster recovery, but have not found any other projects or tools that help accomplish this. Is there work in the community that targets this kind of functionality today that I should familiarize myself with? Or any huge red flags I'm missing that would prohibit this kind of solution from working?
