The Containers team is a new cross-functional team for OpenStack community stakeholders interested in adding better support in OpenStack for container technology. At the time of the Icehouse summit in Hong Kong there was a session and some IRC discussion on this topic, but after assorting some initial differences in opinion about where containers should be handled within OpenStack, discussions ended. This team aims to revisit this subject and drive to a conclusion that key stakeholders within the OpenStack community are comfortable with. This team will be considered successful once users of OpenStack can create and manage containers on OpenStack with an experience consistent with what they expect from using the Nova service to get virtual machines.

OpenStack Containers Team

The Containers team is a cross-functional team for OpenStack community stakeholders interested in adding better support in OpenStack for container technology. The team was initially formed in May 2014, and currently has a clear vision for advancing container technology in existing OpenStack services, and new services and tools that evolve OpenStack to track with new technological advances in this area. This team will be considered successful once users of OpenStack can create and manage containers on OpenStack with an experience consistent with what they expect from using the Nova service to get virtual machines.

This team is actively engaged refining Magnum, a Containers Service for OpenStack.

Membership

Anyone interested in containers support in OpenStack may join the OpenStack Containers Team on Launchpad for meeting invite updates.

If you wish to become a core member of the team, we recommend fixing existing bugs, implementing blueprints, and reviewing the magnum and python-magnumclient repos.

Meetings

This team has a weekly meeting schedule on the main OpenStack meeting schedule:
