Official Title: OpenStack Block Storage Cinder

PTL: Mike Perez <thingee at gmail d0t com>

Mission Statement:
To implement services and libraries to provide on demand, self-service access to Block Storage resources. Provide Software Defined Block Storage via abstraction and automation on top of various traditional backend block storage devices.

Description

Cinder is a Block Storage service for OpenStack. It's designed to allow the use of either a reference implementation (LVM) to present storage resources to end users that can be consumed by the OpenStack Compute Project (Nova). The short description of Cinder is that it virtualizes pools of block storage devices and provides end users with a self service API to request and consume those resources without requiring any knowledge of where their storage is actually deployed or on what type of device.am
