TITLE=Neutron - Metering agent add port statistics |
 +
DESCRIPTION=Neutron the metering agent collects statistics regarding bandwidth usage. Right now it only measure the bandwidth used by routers. The idea is to extend it and provide statistics also for ports. In the first implementation only openvswitch will be supported, since we will use openvswitch tools to get the port statistics. The first step will be getting familiar with the metering agent and with Neutron in general. Then you will approach openvswitch tools and think about how to use them for this project. After that you can reach out to the community to collect and discuss ideas. Neutron folks are pretty active on #openstack-neutron channel most of the time and would be willing to share their opinions on this or any other project. You'll submit your code upstream and address the comments you get till your patch gets merged.  |

To submit new ideas please consider creating a new page and use the Template:InternshipIdea (instructions are provided on that page) and you can see how a sample idea page would look like. The pages created with such template are listed on Category:Internship_idea.

List of Ideas for Internships

The OpenStack Foundation has multiple sources for internships, from Outreachy to Google Summer of Code and other opportunities. This page collects the ideas for candidate interns to work on.

Applicants may not have ever worked on FLOSS before and have different levels of competence. Since we have different programs, add here ideas that can be completed by inexperienced contributors, developers or other fields (marketing, communication, graphic design, and anything that may be useful for OpenStack and to include new people in this community).

Sahara - Improve anti-affinity behavior for cluster creation

Enable sahara to distribute node creation in a more equitable manner with respect to compute hardware affinity. This will involve examining how sahara currently places nodes requesting anti-affinity into a server group, and then creating a solution for distributing the requested nodes. One possibility is for sahara to create more server groups and place nodes in those groups in a round-robin fashion.
