Re: Goggle Summer of Code 2021

Hi All,

I'd like to propose an idea around extending the behaviour of Persistent 
Networks in CloudStack. The idea is to enable synchronization of network 
devices across newly added hosts. Further details can be found at: 
https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/4814

Thanks,
Pearl Dsilva

Hi all

It would be great if the CloudStack project were able to get a few Google 
Summer of Code  [1] students this year to work on projects within our 
community. We've had a number of previous GSoC students (examples at [2] ), who 
have worked on innovative features/ projects within cloudstack and have then 
gone on to become significant contributors to Cloudstack .


In order to be able to attract students to work on Cloudstack, we need 2 things:

  1.  A number of candidate projects for students to work on. Students browse 
all GSoC the candidate projects and choose one that interests them- effectively 
every organisation is competing for the students interest.  These projects 
therefore need to be reasonably interesting looking projects to attract 
potential students. The students spend approximately 9 weeks coding, so the 
projects need to be appropriately scaled
  2.  Somebody prepared to mentor the student throughout the duration of the 
project (usually the person who suggests the project)

The student application period starts 29 March [3]
The ASF  has registered itself as a mentor  organisation with Google , allowing 
individual Apache projects to list candidate projects  for students to work on. 
A wiki page [4]  has been created at the ASF level to allow ASF projects to  
list their ideas for students


I'm happy to coordinate this from a Cloudstack perspective.
If others are happy with this approach, then I ask for two things at this stage:


  1.  Could people suggest appropriate projects. This could be a piece of 
integration that you've always considered and not got around to or could be an 
improvement that you've always wanted to do. If people can reply to this thread 
with ANY ideas, it would be a good start (irrespective of whether you wish to 
be a mentor or not)
  2.  At the same time, could people say whether they'd be prepared to be a 
student mentor or not

Re: Goggle Summer of Code 2021

2021-03-16 Thread Harikrishna Patnala 
Hi guys,

I've an idea around mapping existing configuration parameters to the APIs when 
they are used during some operation, instead of looking for configuration 
parameters using string search or documentation. This helps in debugging or 
tuning the API operation easily w.r.t. configuration parameters.
I've created a ticket here https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/issues/4825.
[https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/47359?s=400=4]
GSoC 2021 Idea: Configuration parameters and APIs mappings · Issue #4825 · 
apache/cloudstack
Background There are around ~672 configuration parameters in CloudStack which 
is a huge list and the way admins got used to look for configuration parameters 
is either by string search or documenta...

I'm happy to be a mentor for this improvement. Please let me know your feedback.

Thanks,
