Hi,
just a short feedback to my previous post.
We switched from our self-written Python script to cloudkitty. We had to
make some commits to openstack-ansible, to integrate cloudkitty into our
installation but we got it working.
cloudkitty replaced our self-written script completely. We needed some time
to get used to it, but it reduced our maintenance.
We will have to write a converter for the json/csv reports generated by
cloudkitty, so we can import the data into our billing system. But we get
the complete data we need from cloudkitty which is worth a lot.
Our next steps:
- Perhaps migrate to gnocchi as cloudkitty storage backend. We will have to
test this first.
- The Horizon pages aren't that nice, especially the user-facing one. We
will have a look at that later. For now, we disabled it.
regards
Christian
