Greetings, user survey discussion

For the benefit of people who haven't attended, this is the way the cinder team works at the PTG:

  • sessions are recorded
  • please sign in on the "Attendees" section of this etherpad for each day
  • all notes, questions, etc. happen in the etherpad; try to remember to preface your comment with your irc nick
  • anyone present can comment or ask questions in the etherpad
  • also, anyone present should feel free to ask questions or make comments during any of the discussions
  • we discuss topics in the order listed in the etherpad, making adjustments as we go for sessions that run longer or shorter
  • we stick to the scheduled times for cross-project sessions, but for everything else we are flexible


Next, we took a look at the Project Specific Feedback Responses from the latest User Survey. Here's an ethercalc that's organized to make the cinder-relevant responses easier to see: https://ethercalc.openstack.org/=2021-user-survey

Our question on the survey was: "If there was one thing you would like to see changed (added, removed, fixed) in Cinder, what would it be?"

We received 39 responses (out of about 425 responses to the survey).

Looking through the responses, there were requests for features that we already have and some comments that we didn't understand. We decided send a response to the mailing list mentioning the implemented features and starting a discussion on the items we didn't understand. Amy Marrich (spotz, who facilitates the operator meetups) has mentioned that operators tend to follow the meetup twitter account, so a good way to contact operators is to post to the ML and then notify her to tweet out the link from the ops meetup account.

The quantitative responses (for example, how many deployments include cinder) are on the OpenStack analytics page: https://www.openstack.org/analytics/

Some feedback for the User Survey team:

  • The data in the report on the website is really difficult to consume (it's displayed in non-resizable graphs, and it's difficult to distinguish the percentages for "interested", "testing" and "production"). There's an option to download as PDF, but that gives you the same non-resizable graphs. It would be helpful to be able to download the data as a CSV file.
  • For the next survey, we want to add the question: What driver(s) are you using for your Cinder environment?
  • We like our current question, but a lot of the answers are too vague -- do you have any suggestions on how to indicate to people that they should be clear and specific?

conclusions

  • action (rosmaita): start an etherpad for the response to operators
  • action (rosmaita): communicate our feedback to the User Survey team
