Tacker: mission & scope
Tacker is a project developing a framework to simplify hosting of services in virtual and physical appliances. The framework relieves service developers of having to, themselves, implement functionality to manage devices that host service instances.
The capabilities and functionality envisioned for Tacker are:
- Device inventory to keep track of available devices
- Template constructs to describe and categorize devices of different types
- Lifecycle management of virtual machines and containers
- This includes maintenance of VM pools that can hide boot latency, thus making the VM instance immediately available
- Control allocation of capacity in the devices
Implementation or orchestration of the services (e.g., FWaaS or LBaaS) is NOT in scope of Tacker. Initial use cases are advanced network service oriented but use cases from other areas are not excluded. Indeed, folks from non-networking communities are welcomed to participate and contribute.
Relation to Nova, Glance, Heat
Tacker makes use of Nova and Glance for VM and image management. Tacker does not, but could, make use of Heat as a subsystem to manage virtual devices.

Action Items
- design/code review process
- https://review.openstack.org/#/q/status:open+project:stackforge/tacker-specs,n,z The discussion was moved to gerrit system since the repos at stackforge have been created. Previously the discussion can be seen at google-doc. https://docs.google.com/document/d/10v818QsHWw5lSpiCMfh908PAvVzkw7_ZUL0cgDiH3Vk/edit?usp=sharing
- code/atch review
- API/data model design https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ServiceVM/api-datamodel
- terminology conversion https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ServiceVM/terminology
- incubation process
- review incubation page https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ServiceVM/Incubation
- produce working code base, then apply the incubation process
- Do we have enough developer to contribute?
- Do we have enough user/use case? How about NFV use case?
- Nuetron enhancement(blueprint/spec review, impelementatoin) neutron port attribute use case/requirement: https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ServiceVM/neutron-port-attributes
- Neutron/Nova/oslo.messaging related stuff https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/ServiceVM/neutron-and-other-project-items
- disable security groups: One thing that I am not sure if it has been discussed is, for L2 agent that supports security groups, such as ovs, some port filters are automatically enabled. Usually this is not what service VM wants. The port-security extension could be used to solve that issue, but it should be confirmed.(raised by Gary Duan)
