| − | '''Project codename''': Ceilometer
| + | This is now moved to http://wiki.openstack.org/Governance/Proposed/Ceilometer |
| − | | |
| − | '''Summary''' (one sentence abstract of the project): The project aims to deliver a unique point of contact for billing systems to aquire all meters they need to establish customer billing, accross all current and future [[OpenStack]] core components.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Detailed Description''':
| |
| − | | |
| − | What is the purpose of the project and vision for it?
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Provide efficient collection of metering data, in terms of CPU and network costs.
| |
| − | * Allow deployers to integrate with the metering system directly or by replacing components.
| |
| − | * Data may be collected by monitoring notifications sent from existing services or by polling the infrastructure.
| |
| − | * Allow deployers to configure the type of data collected to meet their operating requirements.
| |
| − | * The data collected by the metering system is made visible to some users through a REST API.
| |
| − | * The metering messages are signed and non repudiable (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-repudiation)
| |
| − | | |
| − | Describe the relevance of the project to other [[OpenStack]] projects and the [[OpenStack]] mission to provide a ubiquitous cloud computing platform:
| |
| − | | |
| − | * Currently each production cloud deployed using [[OpenStack]] needs to re implement it's own metering solution as [[OpenStack]] does not deliver a standard way to provide this to billing engines
| |
| − | * As each implement their own solution, there is
| |
| − | ** a massive amount of effort that is being duplicated
| |
| − | ** no standard way to collect information accross [[OpenStack]] projects
| |
| − | ** potential patches to collect unavailable information, specific to each cloud deployment, that are hard to maintain.
| |
| − | * What public cloud does not need to bill for its usage?
| |
| − | * What private cloud does not need, at least, to be able to inform its users of their use and cost?
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Basic roadmap for the project''':
| |
| − | * v1 delivered with Folsom as an incubated project
| |
| − | * v2 delivered with G as a core project
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Location of project source code''':
| |
| − | * https://launchpad.net/ceilometer
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Programming language, required technology dependencies''':
| |
| − | * Python
| |
| − | * Depends on openstack-common
| |
| − | * Agents depend on respective [[OpenStack]] project they cover
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Is project currently open sourced? What license?''':
| |
| − | * Apache 2 licensed
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Level of maturity of software and team''':
| |
| − | * High
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Proposed project technical lead and qualifications''':
| |
| − | * Currently co-lead by dachary and nijaba, election to be held at the end of July or beginning of august.
| |
| − | * Dachary is eNovance's research officer, more details can be found at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lo%C3%AFc_Dachary
| |
| − | * Nijaba is Canonical's Cloud Product Manager, some of his contribution can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NicolasBarcet
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Other project developers and qualifications''':
| |
| − | * dhellmann works at [[DreamHost]], is a Member of the Python Foundation and some of his work is listed at http://www.doughellmann.com/projects/index.html
| |
| − | * jd__ works at eNovance on [[OpenStack]], more details can be found at http://julien.danjou.info/experience/ (note this [http://julien.danjou.info/blog/2012/openstack-swift-consistency-analysis excellent analysis about swift eventual consistency and bottlenecks])
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Infrastructure requirements (testing, etc)''':
| |
| − | * already integrated with gerrit and jenkins. Tests cases required for each submit.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Have all current contributors agreed to the OpenStack CLA?'''
| |
| − | * Yes
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''Status''': To be completed by PPB
