Hi all,
Bit rusty returning after Havana to OpenStack for Dev issues.
Goal : Need help in creating a new proposal for Cloudlet...Any takers please
respond.
Am sure with knowledgeable folks like we have in OpenStack dev, all I need to
say is this like a Data Center at the Edge in a VM or Container on a Host or
cluster (Host aggregation). So few things already exit on OpenStack Liberty,
but need the Network Based management of Cloudlet with hand-off between edges
(not exactly a live migration) but a kind of Base + Delta (Image of disk +mem),
so obviously lies between Nova compute and Neutron Network which is the real
pain point. Once we have functional piece covered via API and API engine, we
will deal with low latency, throughput and all those cool stuff.
My limitations are getting back to basics to be able to surmount the CI/CD
pipeline of the Project creation and once basic project is created will help
get Cloudlet to be a major initiative for OpenStack.
Those who can build we have a long journey and will need your consistent
support.
So finally we all will see this is worth the efforts to move the mountains to
get Cloud to an intermediary Cloudlet.
Here is two years of history if you really need background.
But all we need for now is a Project created as Cloudlet with specs borrowed
from history below and start the 4O's of OpenStack to bring it next wave
besides OPNFV.
ThanksPrakash

OpenStack Austin Summit trying to launch
Cloudlet--------------------------------------------------

Including the current Nova PTL, Matt Riedemann.
These topics are probably best discussed on the openstack-dev mailing list.
Have you submitted a spec for this yet, as requested on the blueprint?For more
details please see:
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/how_to_get_involved.html
http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/process.html#how-do-i-get-my-code-merged
The nova unconference sessions at the summit are designed to give people a
chance to raise topics like this one, and get quick feedback on them, as
described in the summit schedule. That works best if you have already submitted
your spec.
Please note we are in the process of removing all the Nova API extension
points. They have been deprecated for a few cycles now.
I think my previous response on this topic was that I consider this out of
scope for Nova:http://docs.openstack.org/developer/nova/project_scope.html
And honestly it feels like something that would be better done on top of
magnum, or something like magnum.
Many thanks,
John
PSParticular company affiliation is not important here.But diverse affiliation
within a group is very helpful when forming these sorts of ideas.

John and Armando, I have a project called "cloudlet" which has two parts one
for extending Nova API and that also deals with low latency handoff at the
edge.Been struggling to get it accepted either in Nova or Neutron and tried
reaching through Telco as well Product Working Groups. All ends up in PTLs to
decide if this is good use case to allow for creating of a new project. Here is
the first attempt in Liberty with a Blueprint in
Nova.https://blueprints.launchpad.net/nova/+spec/cloudlet Next I attempted
through Telco/OPNFV channel that lead to following use case approval scenario.
Now with two summits gone I am still not ready with a project to work in Open
with 4'Os under Project creation requirements for OpenStack. Is it possible for
any PTL Nova or Neutron to recommend this using exiting Blueprint and assign it
to a new project called cloudlet? I spoke to Jermy Stanley in infrastructure
team and he gave links to
Openstack-Project-team-guidehttp://docs.openstack.org/project-team-guide I
tried follow it but with so many items like Zuul, Gerrit, name space, I find it
difficult to cover all aspects to reach a simple project creation.Is it
possible to convert the Blueprint in nova as above with specs for Cloudlet and
give me an name space "cloudlet" to start organizing a separate project. Any
help from you all will help, and my OpenStack userid is connected with
pramc...@yahoo.com and am ccing myself. Not expecting any miracles but a simple
help from any one of you can at least get me on the road to new project
creation.If you want to add a committer from HP or Intel or rackspace I will
certainly work with them to get all RST files etc if that helps. ThanksPrakash
