LBaaS Plan for Havana

Quantum/LBaaS/HavanaPlan

Current Design Discussions + whats need to be done

  1. Initial Discussions Document NetworkLoadBalancingIntegrationsWithQuantum
    • May need to specify workflow of LB provisioning in all scenarios that LBaaS is going to support.
  2. Object Model proposal - LBaaS/CoreResourceModel/proposal
    • All agreed upon. Might need minor update to include resources needed for device management (HW device catalog)
  3. Tenant REST API - main proposal Quantum/LBaaS/API_1.0
    • Discussion about tenant_id in URL ended with most people agreeing to go with 2.0 style or URL (no tenant_id in URL)
  4. Service Insertion - Spring Proposal ServicesInsertion and Fall Proposal Quantum/ServiceInsertion
    • Things to be discussed:
      1. Insertion modes: what is simplest and what should be implemented in the first place.
      2. changes in existing resource model (router)
      3. service catalog configuration
      4. API
  5. Agreed on:
    1. Single Plugin per service type at a time. Vendor specific device access is implemented via drivers. Drivers could provide vendor-specific extra features. 1:1 mapping between extensions and plugins.
  6. Provider API / Device Management - proposal Quantum/DeviceManagementAPI
    • The document describes API/process of registering a physical appliance as an LB device.
  7. Balancer provisioning - proposal Quantum/LBaaS/Provisioning/proposal
    • The document needs to be updated with workflows that correspond to (1)
  8. Overall code architecture proposal Quantum/LBaaS/Architecture
    • Contains overall picture of components and what they do. Sequence diagram needs to be updated according to latest decision about async execution.
  9. Miscellaneous
    1. Device Locking - proposal Quantum/LBaaS/Architecture/ConcurrentRequests
    2. Asynchronous execution (discussion):
      • Client gets immediate response with Job ID which it polls later on. May need to have short design spec on this.
  10. Inter-service resource dependency (discussion):
    • Resources of different advanced services may depend on one another. Solution options: (?)
  11. Support "Service Type" in LBaaS API. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1H_OQa-Vm4oqp-Cs-s47xhatUq4mMLZWZVTIu0ypHLlA/edit
