Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron][LBaaS] No LBaaS agent?
Thanks everybody. While I am trying to digest all the responses, I am here to reply why we are not considering a driver. We already have an application which listens to neutron events to do some other stuff, it might just be easier for us if we reuse this framework and program the LBaasS from there. If we use driver, there is this added efforts where we need to ask the user to install our driver, modify the conf file, start the agent and restart neutron. We might still go back to driver/agent later because it seemed that it helps scale better. Thanks Doug, Kevin, Brandon and Kunal! You guys are so helpful.

Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron][LBaaS] No LBaaS agent?
Doug Our current event consumer is listening to the queue with the topic specified in neutron.conf as notification_topics = x. neutron will generate all create/update/delete events(from api) to this queue including vip/member/pool events. So we don't need to write a driver to generate the events. Neutron base api has taken care of it. Regards!

Re: [openstack-dev] [Neutron][LBaaS] No LBaaS agent?
I missed the part about wanting to do your own event handling. Brandon is right, the right thing to do is to make yourself a driver. You can start with the noop_driver in this review, though some of the import paths will need fixing up: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/56187/ https://review.openstack.org/#/c/56187/ Feel free to stop into #openstack-lbaas and we can help you out.

Currently we don't want to write a LBaaS agent of our own. Is there a way to not to use LBaaS agent and still be able to use horizon/cli to configure loadbalance? During openstack summit at vancouver, I saw paypal loadbalance presentation, they use two providers, one is agent , the other is agentless controller, not sure how that controller works, could not find it through googling.
