Octavia Roadmap
This document describes the development roadmap for the OpenStack Octavia load balancer as a service project. It should be updated periodically by Octavia team members as the group agrees on development priorities.
Long-term timeline
Major milestone: Octavia Version 0.5
Description: First generally usable release of Octavia. Delivers load balancing services on multiple Nova VMs (amphora). Single, centralized command and control (not scalable).
OpenStack release target: Liberty
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- Flavor support
- TLS support
- Updated horizon UI
- Octavia driver for Neutron LBaaS
Octavia progress:
- Octavia delivers all functionality of Neutron LBaaS user API
- Horizon UI updates for Neutron LBaaS v2
- Octavia amphora image building scripts
- Neutron LBaaS driver interface for Octavia
- Non-voting Neutron third-party CI for Octavia to ensure Neutron code changes don't break Octavia (possibly updated to voting CI, once Octavia supplants legacy reference driver).
- Command-and-control layer handles:
- Octavia amphora lifecycle management
- Octavia amphora monitoring
- Octavia amphora command and control
- Neutron LBaaS service deployment
- Become reference implementation for Neutron LBaaS
- Amphora spares pool support
- Basic amphora failover support
Major milestone: Octavia Version 0.8
Description: Operator-scale release of Octavia. Delivers load balancing services on multiple Nova VMs (Amphora), and has scalable command and control layer.
OpenStack release target: Mitaka
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- L7 switching support
- Horizon dashboard for LBaaSv2
Octavia progress:
- Resilient topologies for Octavia amphorae (ie. active/standby)
- L7 switching support
- Hooks for Heat integration
- Fully scalable and HA command-and-control layer
- Single call create
Major milestone: Octavia Version 0.9
Description: Retire LBaaS v1 API, add support for IPv6, and additional neutron network configurations.
OpenStack release target: Newton
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- LBaaS API v1 has been removed
- Single call create
- Support for creating load balancers using a neutron network id
Octavia progress:
- Add IPv6 support
- Support for host routes and subnets without DHCP enabled
- Amphora certificate and key storage is now in an encrypted ramfs
Major milestone: Octavia Version 0.10
Description: Octavia / LBaaS spin out of neutron, start work to merge neutron-lbaas into Octavia
OpenStack release target: Ocata
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- Namespace driver agent rescheduling
- Namespace driver haproxy process monitoring
Octavia progress:
- Adds keystone suport to Octavia API
- Adds quota support to Octavia API
- Adds policy support to Octavia API
- Amphora images now support systemd
- Amphora images can now be built with Ubuntu Xenial
- Support for PKCS7 intermediate certificate bundles
Major milestone: Octavia Version 1.0
Description: Finish neutron-lbaas merge into Octavia and enable Active/Active topology
OpenStack release target: Pike
Octavia progress:
- Octavia v2 API compatible with neutron-lbaas v2 API
- OpenStack client plugin
- Admin API support for amphora upgrades
- Health monitoring on alternate IPs and/or ports
Major milestone: Octavia Version 2.0
Description: General enhancements and preparation for neutron-lbaas deprecation
OpenStack release target: Queens
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- Neutron-LBaaS API pass through proxy to Octavia API
- Start deprecation of neutron-lbaas
Octavia progress:
- Octavia Dashboard enhancements
- Batch pool member enhancements
- Neutron QoS support for load balancer VIP
- Castellan support for TLS offload certificate storage
Major milestone: Octavia Version 3.0
Description: Enable Provider drivers and UDP protocol support
OpenStack release target: Rocky
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- Maintenance - Under deprecation feature freeze
Octavia progress:
- Provider driver support
- UDP loadbalancing support
- Backup or "Sorry" page support
- Timeout configuration support per load balancer
Major milestone: Octavia Version 4.0
Description: Enable flavors and TLS enhnacements
OpenStack release target: Stein
Neutron-LBaaS progress:
- Maintenance - Under deprecation feature freeze
Octavia progress:
- Backend re-encryption
- Client certificate authentication
- Flavors
- Kernel TCP splicing

Considerations for Octavia 8.0+
The features described here are not presently planned for any official release of Octavia, but may make sense to develop at some point given user or operator demand (and may be moved to an earlier release cycle as a result of this), and probably still fall within scope of the larger Octavia project:
- Active/Active dynamic scaling
- Active/Active topology
- Additional balancing algorithm support
- Additional health monitor protocols
- Amphora container support
- Backend member server "agent" support
- CA certificate management
- Compression support
- Content caching support
- DDoS mitigation
- Intelligent ECC certificate handling
- Header insertion
- Health monitor content check
- Integration with to-be-defined OpenStack GSLB project Kosmos
- Performance enhancements
- DPDK
- PCI-Passthrough
- SRIOV
- FPGA
- CPU pinning
- Rewrite rules
- Shared health monitors
- Status change notifications via oslo messaging
- Status tracks another member
- Additional L7 protocol support (beyond HTTP)
- Advanced metrics / instrumentation support
