Hi all,

I and Yamahata talked about Ryu at OpenStack Design Summit 2012, and
there were many hot discussions there!

Here are some short summaries of them.

 - Scalability

   How many VMs and how many switches does Ryu support now?  To be
   honest, we don't have a concrete number about it.  However, Ryu
   aims at tens thousands or higher nodes, which is difficult to be
   handled by the existing hardware solutions.

   We also plan to support distributed ryu-managers in near future.
   It would provide higher scalability and enable us to create virtual
   networks even if the underlying machines are not in the same
   data-center.

 - Integration with Quantum and Nova

   There were many questions about how Ryu works with OpenStack.
   Currently, OpenStack with Ryu has some limitations (e.g. VMs cannot
   use the same IP address), but the most of them comes from Nova.  I
   hope they would be solved in the next release FolSom.

   In the design summit, there was a session to discuss the
   requirements of Quantum plugins (the summary is in
   http://etherpad.openstack.org/quantum-folsom).  We also should
   support them in our plugin.

 - Other tunneling protocols

   It is possible to use other protocols for tunneling if OVS supports
   them.  On the next day after our presentation, Cisco developers
   showed me a demo, which uses VXLAN for tunneling with their
   customized OVS.  It was really cool!

   We plan to support protocol conversion among VLAN, GRE, MPLS, and
   so on.  It is necessary to keep isolations when Ryu manages virtual
   networks and physical networks at the same time.

Thanks,

Kazutaka
