Architecture Design Guide Reorganization
- Do not modify the current guide in openstack-manuals/docs/arch-design. Commit your work to the draft directory openstack-manuals/docs/arch-design-draft.
- Please ensure your commit messages references the blueprint: Implements: blueprint arch-guide-mitaka-reorg
- If you need diagrams, ping darrenc.
Resources
Global task
To assign yourself a task, put your name next to the task and reference the review URL. Change the status to complete when the task is completed.
- Rewrite abstract
- markup glossary terms
- How about we condense the use case information as a chapter at the start of the book, and mention hybrid as the main focus in the guide?
- Mention http://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ops/content/cloud_controller_design.html
- Would including a generic architecture design planning template in an appendix be useful or relevant?
- Considerations when designing an OpenStack cloud in a development, staged or production environment
Chapter/Section tasks
To assign yourself a task, put your name next to the section or task and reference the review URL. Change the status to complete when the task is completed.
Chapter 1. Introduction
- 1.1 Intended audience
- include content from the original guide
- 1.2 How this book is organized
- Rewrite this section mentioning the book follows a structure that system architects would use in developing cloud architecture design documents
- 1.3 Why and How we wrote this book
- Include section?
Chapter 2 Identifying stakeholders
- Describe who the internal and external stakeholders are, and the impact they may have on business requirements and architecture design.
Chapter 3 Functional Requirements
- Information from SMEs
- Mention deployment methods will affect cost, and reference to http://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ops/content/section_arch_provision.html the ops-guide
- Do we need to expand http://docs.openstack.org/openstack-ops/content/section_arch_provision.html to include other deployment methods? If so, what are they?
Chapter 4 User requirements
- Information from SMEs
- Business and technical requirements, consolidate http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/generalpurpose-user-requirements.html, http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/storage-focus-technical-considerations.html, http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/network-focus-user-requirements.html#, http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/multi-site-user-requirements.html, http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/hybrid-user-requirements.html, http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/hybrid-technical-considerations.html, http://docs.openstack.org/arch-design/massively-scalable-user-requirements.html
Chapter 5 Operator requirements
- 5.1 SLA considerations
- 5.2 Monitoring
- 5.3 Selecting hardware
- Selecting the right hardware - servers, switches, and how they integrate
- 5.4 integration with external IDP
Chapter 6 Capacity planning and scaling
- 6.1 Storage
- Shared storage, implications for live migration
- Protecting data-at-rest
- 6.2 Networking
- Neutron considerations with router design - DVR or centralized
- 6.3 Compute
- 6.4 Control plane API services & Horizon
Chapter 7. High Availability
- Separation of data plane and control plane
- Eliminating single points of failure
- The services that must remain up 100%, and those that can be restarted without affecting users
Chapter 8. Security requirements
- Include original content. Perhaps reference to the relevant sections in the Security Guide?
Chapter 9. Legal requirements
- Include original content. Is it possible to include examples or things to consider?
Chapter 10. Example architectures
(reflecting concepts and terminology described in previous chapters)
- 10.1 Small scale, single site with Neutron networking
- 10.2 Adding another region
- 10.3 Scaling with multiple cells
