==What is Manila?==
+
While manila was designed to provide self-service provisioning and access control of file-shares to compute instances in multi-tenant OpenStack clouds, since it serves up storage over the network it can provide file-share infrastructure for clients running in other clouds or for bare-metal, VM hosts or containerized workloads.
−
Manila is an OpenStack affiliated project to provide virtual file shares (a/k/a  "file as a service" or virtual NAS).  Manila is a spin-off of the Cinder project.  Whereas Cinder exposes virtual block storage, Manila exposes mountable file shares.  These file shares can be presented the a Nova guest via NFS, SMB, VirtFS, Glusterfs Native protocol or vendor-specific network attached storage protocols.  Manila file shares can be concurrently mounted by multiple Nova guests.

Introduction

This page introduces the shared file system service for OpenStack -- Manila. Manila derived from the Cinder project and provides a canonical storage provisioning control plane in OpenStack for shared or distributed file systems similarly to the way Cinder provides such a canonical control plane for block storage.

The design and implementation of Manila provide extensibility for multiple backends (to support vendor or file system specific nuances / capabilities) but is sufficiently abstract to accommodate any of a variety of shared or distributed file system types.

File-based storage continues to be a thriving market. Diverse applications, from server virtualization to relational or distributed databases to collaborative content creation, can leverage the performance, scalability and simplicity of management associated with file-based systems, and the large ecosystem of supporting software products.

While manila was designed to provide self-service provisioning and access control of file-shares to compute instances in multi-tenant OpenStack clouds, since it serves up storage over the network it can provide file-share infrastructure for clients running in other clouds or for bare-metal, VM hosts or containerized workloads.
