Google Summer of Code 2014

OpenStack is applying as a mentoring organization for the 2014 Google Summer of Code. Check Google Developers site for more information on how the program works. We need to get in this time!

Link to call for participation: here Link to FAQs: here

Mentors

Organizations application period opens February 3 and ends on February 14.

f you're interested in mentoring for this round, please add your name, email, and the kind of projects you're interested in mentoring here:

  • Debo Dutta
  • Davanum Srinivas
  • Alejandro Cabrera
  • Yathiraj Udupi
  • Fei Long Wang (Glance)

Students

Students application period opens March 21 and ends on April 21.

If you'd like to get started on your proposal early, go ahead and add your name, location, e-mail and the project you are interested in (if you already know about that!) here:

  • Anastasios Andronidis, Greece, andronat_asf@hotmail.com. Proposed: Glance Scalable Image Precaching
  • Artem Shepelev, Russia, e-mail: shepelev.artem@gmail.com [to fill more details]
  • Victoria Martínez de la Cruz - Argentina - victoria@vmartinezdelacruz.com
  • Wei Wang, China
  • Kumar Rishabh, India, email: shailrishabh@gmail.com [would fill more details later]

Communication

Get in touch with mentors and students through the openstack-dev mailing list. Also, you can find us at IRC in #openstack-gsoc at irc.freenode.org.

Ideas

Here are some project suggestions students can choose for their applications. This doesn't mean students have to stick strictly to this list; don't hesitate in propose projects by your own. For the latter, it would be great if you could submit a draft proposal and a estimated timeline.

When writing your proposal, try to estimate your timeline to fit the 4 month period of GSoC coding. Also, take into account that GSoC does not consider other projects than coding, so other ideas (like community tasks or i18n efforts) are not suitable for this internship.

OpenStack Scheduler (Gantt/Climate)

  • Implement a stand-alone scheduler based on the scheduler forklift code
  • Implement a scalable scheduler
  • Implement a cross-services scheduler

OpenStack Queues (Marconi)

  • Add a new storage backend (Redis, RethinkDB, Cassandra, Swift, etc.)

OpenStack Incubator (Oslo)

  • Add a new backend to oslo.cache (Redis, sqlite, etc.)

Projects

Current mentors are willing to supervise students in the following projects:
