RE: [PROPOSAL] add native container orchestration service

[Rajesh Ramchandani]

Hi Paul - I think this is different from what the thread was about. The 
conversation was specifically about adding support for container orchestrators. 
You are talking about provisioning a group of VMs. Although, this is something 
I think several Cloudstack users have requested before and we should propose a 
solution to this.

#WhatHeSaid

The title is misleading.  The proposal is purely to add the notion of Clusters 
of VMs to CloudStack.  These may be for databases, containers or anything else 
that needs 'clusters' of compute. Self-healing and autoscaling are logical next 
steps to be added.

Those guys at ShapeBlue have open-sourced their whole k8s container service 
piece.  If/when the 'cluster' part of that work is added into CloudStack, the 
k8s specific pieces can be used by anyone who wants to, alternatively they 
could be used for reference in order to create another types of cluster.  (or 
ignored completely).

Re: CCC Miami Sponsor: ShapeBlue

Hi Will -


I was wondering if you could suggest what will be the attendance expectation at 
CCC? I am hoping it will be a lot more than the ApacheCon Europe last year. We 
would love to sponsor as long as we are able to rally our community members to 
attend. Thanks.

Thank for following up Marco,
I am a bit worried about the timing since I think we are looking to try to
make a presence at ApacheCon in Miami on May 16-18.  It may be hard to fill
both events...

How far have you guys gotten in your planning?  I have not seen anything
recently on the lists regarding things like requesting speakers and such.
Keep in mind that anyone coming from india has to have everything in order
more than a month in advance because it takes over a month to get a visa to
leave the country.  They will also need to know that their talks are
accepted when they apply for a visa, so you have to have your schedule
pretty much ironed out by the first week of Feb to hit those dates.

Let me know if you have questions...

Cheers,

Will

Hi Guys,

I have some free time on my hands and was trying to add XenServer 7
support. There seems to be only one line change that was required to add
it. I am able to create VMs and do basic stuff like NAT/port forwarding.

If anyone is interested in trying this out, I have a branch [1] which I am
working on currently. I will open a PR after I am fairly confident that
everything works.

Thanks,
