The aim of the group is to facilitate running OpenStack at large scale, and help address some of the limitations operators encounter in large OpenStack clusters.

Goals

Scaling with one cluster

Push back the limits preventing scaling within one single cluster. Instrument the bottlenecks.

Resources:

Document large scale configuration

Produce a set of documentation and guidelines on how to configure OpenStack for large scale usage.

Resources:

Communications

The Large Scale SIG will use mostly asynchronous communications means: discussions on the openstack-discuss mailing-list using the [largescale-sig] prefix, and various etherpads. Occasionally we may leverage the #openstack-operators IRC channel for synchronous discussion.

Meeting

The Large Scale SIG meets on IRC typically every two weeks. See https://etherpad.openstack.org/p/large-scale-sig-meeting for details on the next meeting

Past meetings summary and logs

See http://eavesdrop.openstack.org/meetings/large_scale_sig/
