Introduction
Messaging systems enable software applications to communicate and scale. Many of today's enterprise systems make use of messaging systems as the glue between the different components or applications. These components depend on messaging to interact with each other to provide end-to-end functionality. This Openstack stackforge project is intended to solve the problem in the provisioning, deployment and management of messaging systems in a seamless automated fashion for applications deployed on the Openstack cloud operating system.
There are several off-the-shelf messaging systems that implement messaging and queuing semantics such as RabbitMQ, Qpid and ActiveMQ. These proven systems have wide acceptance, usage and testing. The goal of this project is not to implement another messaging system for the Openstack platform, but to implement an automated messaging provisioning, deployment and management system. This system will simplify the application development life-cycle to allow the developer to focus on their application instead of the back-end storage services.
Goals
The focus of the project is to provide high-availability, auto-healing and tenant level isolation to the end user. The initial goal for version 1.0 is to use RabbitMQ as the supported messaging system. The overall goals for this effort are as follows.
Messaging queuing provisioning service for OpenStack built with community support Messaging queuing provisioning service for HP Helion Development Platform

System Context Diagram
[Platform Services > MSGaaS Design (draft) > SystemContextDiagram.png] Component Description User Direct customer of MSGaaS. Horizon MSGaaS functionality will be added to Horizon, which will provide a web-based portal for MSGaaS control.
CLI Command Line Interface to MSGaaS, provides user access to provisioning and deploying messaging clusters.
REST_API
Provides user access to provisioning and deploying messaging clusters through REST interface. This is a light-weight interface, provisioning and configuration of clusters/nodes is delegated to the TaskWorker process.
RabbitMQ Message broker used as the communication pathways between the REST_API and TaskWorker.
TaskWorker Carries out work associated with all provisioning, configuration and management of RabbitMQ clusters and nodes. Makes use of heat for initial provisioning/deployment.
DB Database to store information on clusters and nodes. Example, in cluster creation, when request is initially received through REST_API, this DB is updated accordingly and the work is delegated to TaskWorker. TaskWorker then updates this DB as provisioning and configuration takes place. Subsequent calls to check on status of cluster creation, will return updated information from this DB.
Heat Used cloud instance orchestration in deploying RabbitMQ cluster images.
REST API
General requirement, REST API must respond within 500ms. List Clusters
GET /v1/{tenant_id}/clusters
This operation synchronously returns all clusters provisioned within the provided tenant.
Request Parameters Parameter Type Description tenant_id (URI) UUID The tenant ID in a multi-tenancy cloud.
Response Codes Response Code(s) Normal ok (200) Error unauthorized (401)
